Diablo DMAPLCC1920 5/16" Pilot Bit for SDS-Plus Core Bit
MPN: DMAPLCC1920
Minimum order quantity is .
Introducing the Diablo DMAPLCC1920 5/16" Pilot Bit for SDS-Plus Core Bits — the precise starting point you need for fast, clean concrete coring. This pilot bit is engineered to pair with thin-wall carbide-tipped core bits, delivering a trailblazing combination that maximizes speed, life, and accuracy on every drill.
Why this pilot makes a difference
- Fast, long-lasting performance — a specialized brazing and hardening process reduces wear at the pilot-to-core interface, boosting hole quality and extending tool life in concrete applications.
- Easy, reliable setup — attach the pilot bit to the extension, then simply screw the core bit onto the extension for instant alignment and a secure connection.
- Optimized for SDS-Plus — designed to deliver maximum performance in both corded and cordless SDS-Plus rotary hammers, minimizing downtime on demanding jobs.
- 5/16" precision — specifically sized to work with standard SDS-Plus core bits and thin-wall carbide-tipped designs, ensuring compatibility and consistent results.
- Cleaner holes and faster results — improved alignment reduces wandering, producing straighter cores with cleaner edges in concrete, masonry, and similar materials.
What problems it solves
- Drilling tight, accurate core holes in reinforced concrete without bit wander or misalignment.
- Reducing tool wear and downtime by using a pilot system engineered for durability and longevity.
- Maintaining performance across both corded and cordless SDS-Plus hammers, so you can switch between jobs without changing tooling.
Ideal for professionals and serious DIYers alike, this pilot bit is perfect when you’re running conduit, pipes, or anchors through concrete walls and floors, or when you need precise core holes for electrical, plumbing, or mechanical installations. It’s especially valuable for electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors who demand consistent hole quality and reliable tool life on busy job sites.
Practical tips for peak performance
- Pair with compatible thin-wall carbide-tipped core bits and the appropriate SDS-Plus extension for robust alignment.
- Start drilling at a moderate pace, then ease into steady RPM to reduce heat buildup and preserve bit life.
- Apply steady, controlled feed pressure—let the pilot and core do the cutting work rather than forcing the bit.
- Regularly inspect wear at the pilot-to-core interface and re-braze or replace as needed to maintain optimal performance.
