Metallics MPD1 Masonry Drill Bit Carbide Multipurpose Dia 1/8" 3 Shank 3/32" (1pc)

The MPD1 drills a 1/8 inch diameter hole and has a 3/32 inch shank. The reduced shank means it chucks into a standard round-shank drill chuck rather than requiring an SDS rotary hammer, so it runs in a normal corded or cordless drill on hammer or rotary setting.

No. The MPD1 has a 3/32 inch straight shank, which has no SDS-Plus grooves and will not lock into an SDS chuck. Use it in a keyed or keyless three-jaw chuck. For an SDS-Plus hammer you need a bit with the SDS-Plus shank profile.

It is a carbide-tipped multipurpose bit, so the tip is ground to cut masonry materials such as concrete, brick and block as well as other substrates an electrician runs into on the same wall. Carbide is what lets it survive aggregate; a plain HSS twist bit at 1/8 inch would burn off on the first block.

A 1/8 inch hole is the small end of the range, suited to light-duty fastening into masonry: small plastic or nylon wall plugs and the pilot holes for light hardware and conduit clips. For wedge anchors or sleeve anchors holding structural or heavier equipment loads you need a larger bit sized to that anchor's published hole diameter, not this one.

One bit per pouch. The MPD1 ships as a single piece in a pouch, so if you are drilling a run of anchor holes and want spares on the truck, order the quantity you need rather than expecting a set.
