BOSCH Speed Clean drill bits are built using a solid piece of steel with a dust channel that’s milled to BOSCH specifications to extract dust while drilling, creating 25 percent greater drilling speed. The dust extraction bit system saves time, saves money and produces 90% less dust than traditional drilling methods. The bit life is comparable to the life of BOSCH Bulldog SDS-plus bits. Solid carbide tips are embedded in a steel head with robust two-cutter geometry enhancing bit speed and life. The Speed Clean bit, connected to vacuum system, installs adhesive anchors up to 50% faster when compared with the standard hand-cleaning method. A proprietary BOSCH design allows dust and debris to be removed through the milled center of the bit. The system is optimized for adhesive anchoring applications, working with Simpson Strong-Tie AT-XP anchoring adhesive and Set-XP high-strength anchoring adhesive, which require higher clean-hole standards. Dust reduction, which reduces friction on the bit, also increases drilling speed by 25%. A rubber adapter is provided with every BOSCH Speed Clean bit. The system also reduces airborne silica dust, a known contributor to respiratory illnesses.
