Irwin 5026002 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What sizes does the Irwin 502600 masonry bit come in?
Three diameters, all with a 4 inch flute length: 3/16 x 4 inch (MPN 5026002), 1/4 x 4 inch (MPN 5026003), and 5/16 x 4 inch (MPN 5026006). The 3/16 and 1/4 inch cover the common anchor sizes for tapcons and plastic sleeve anchors in brick and block; 5/16 handles larger sleeve and wedge anchors.
2) Will this Irwin carbide bit work in a regular drill, or do I need a hammer drill?
It is built for rotary drilling as well as deep drilling in masonry, so a standard rotary drill will turn it. In poured concrete a hammer drill will cut noticeably faster, but the tungsten carbide tip is the cutting edge either way. It is a round-shank masonry bit, not an SDS bit, so it chucks into a standard keyed or keyless three-jaw chuck.
3) Which size Irwin masonry bit do I need for 1/4 inch concrete screws?
Use the 3/16 x 4 inch bit (MPN 5026002). Masonry screw anchors are named by their own thread diameter, not the hole, so a 1/4 inch concrete screw takes a 3/16 inch pilot. The 1/4 inch bit (5026003) is the pilot for 5/16 inch screws, and 5/16 (5026006) suits larger sleeve and wedge anchors.
4) Can I use these bits on tile, stone or steel, or only concrete and brick?
Concrete and brick are what the 502600 series is made for. The deep single flute and carbide tip are set up to clear masonry dust out of the hole. Hardened steel needs a cobalt or HSS twist bit instead, and porcelain tile or natural stone is better served by a dedicated tile or diamond bit, which cuts without the aggressive chipping action a masonry tip relies on.
5) Do I get one bit or a set when I order the Irwin 502600?
Each order is a single bit in one diameter, not a multi-size set. If you want to cover 3/16, 1/4 and 5/16 for a crew, order the three MPNs separately: 5026002, 5026003 and 5026006.
6) Does the nickel plating on these masonry bits do anything useful, or is it just looks?
The nickel-plated body helps resist corrosion through repeated jobsite use, which matters if bits ride in a damp bag or a truck bed, and it makes for a smoother surface for the flute to eject dust against. It is not the cutting surface; the cutting is done by the brazed tungsten carbide tip.
7) Where is the Irwin 502600 masonry bit made?
Manufactured in China. Relevant if you are bidding work with country-of-origin or Buy American requirements on consumables.
