Bosch BlueGranite Turbo Carbide Hammer Drill Bits Offer Longer Life, Greater Speed in Masonry Applications

Bosch premium carbide bits offer best-in-class drilling for masonry, tile, granite and other materials

 

Mt. Prospect, Ill., August 24, 2017 – When it comes to hammer drill bit life and speed, it’s hard to beat Bosch BlueGranite Turbo™ Carbide hammer drill bits that deliver 5x life and 2x speed versus standard masonry bits. The bit features an upgraded four-grind head, as well as a multi-grind centering tip or precise starts in masonry and other materials. The impact-rated bits have been redesigned with a hex shank for use in hammer drills and impact drivers.

BlueGranite Turbo bits are engineered for long life using Bosch premium carbide and a redesigned tip. The bits provide 2x faster drilling thanks to milled flutes that allow rapid dust removal.

“Bosch BlueGranite Turbo bits offer users the advantages of a masonry bit that delivers precision drilling from start to finish,” said Tom Grego, group manager, accessories, BOSCH POWER TOOLS. “In today’s high-torque power tools, professional users demand accessories that can match the power of the tool. BlueGranite Turbo represents a high-quality, tough bit that doesn’t lack for speed or life.”

Bosch BlueGranite Turbo bits feature an innovative four-grind head, which offers more cutting angles and a faster bore than a two-grind bit.  In addition, the head delivers better speed over the life of the bit. A multi-grind centering tip provides precision drilling and prevents skating in materials that range from concrete and brick to masonry.

The bit’s new hex shank design offers an aggressive hold in high-torque power tools. BlueGranite Turbo bits are easy to chuck in the tool and are designed to prevent slippage.
