can you use this drill holes in concrete block wall?

Yes, but I've found it does'nt have a great deat of torque. Drilling in wood will sometimes stop the drill.

There isn't anything in this kit that would let you drill into concrete. This kit contains screwdriver bits, nutdrivers, and socket adapters. I would look at a hammer-drill with masonry bits to drill into concrete.

I wouldn't recommend drilling into concrete with this drill. If it were me, I would use an electric corded drill for that task.

These do not have a hammer drill feature. I used the impact one for driving in longer screws and bolts. personally, I would seek out a hammer drill for concrete work. These drills back some power so a masonary bit and brick should work fine.

Not advisable, however if you're just wanting to drill one hole for something, you can buy a masonry drill bit but they don't last long and it's hard on the drill. It's best to buy a hammer drill if you're going to be doing a lot of concrete/masonry drilling.

for the anchors that came with mine, 7/32" for dry, wall 1/4" for cinder block or concrete. The anchors are real cheap ones. If you have a problem with them, just get some better ones at at Home depot or Lowes, these should have drill bit size listed on package. the anchors should go in snuggly and flush to wall. You may need to tap them in lightly with hammer. (emphasis on "lightly")

I have not had to install mine this way. However, if you know what your doing, I don't see why not. An anchor would have to be used that is made for concrete and of course a concrete drill bit.

Yes, but you would need to buy your own installation hardware from a local hardware store. The installation hardware included with the panels is only for wood or drywall, not concrete. The Blue TapCon Screws designed for concrete work well in concrete blocks.

We use this drill for everything around the house. It is not industrial strength/contractors daily use, but it can do anything. You will need a drill bit for that project. Most drill bits are for metal or wood. I believe most people use a hammer drill for drilling into concrete. If its a few smaller holes, I don't see why this one wouldn't work. If the drill gets super hot and isn't making any progress, I would stop and rent a hammer drill. Hope this helps.

Thank you for your interest. Yes, the Bosch HD21-2 would work for drilling holes into concrete with the proper bit as long as the diameter of the hole is not larger than 7/8" which is the maximum capacity for this hammer drill. If you need to drill larger diameter holes we would recommend one of our larger rotary hammers. If you have further questions please feel free to contact our Bosch Customer Service Representatives at 1-877-BOSCH-99 (1-877-267-2499).

Using this drill with concrete drill bits would work for small projects. Heavy drilling should be done with a larger and heavier duty drill.

Yes. In the hammer mode with good bits I have drilled holes in concrete walls and pads with no problems

Yes. Mark the holes using the plate, drill holes using a masonry bit (if over concrete slab, continue using masonry bit, if over wood subfloor, switcht to wood drill bit), tap in the anchors (use soapy water to help ease the installation), then screw in the plate.

I have not tried to drill in concrete with this drill, and I would not try it with anything besides a hammer drill. I did it once with standard corded drill and it took forever.

Sure. Drill small pilot hole with masonry bit - just big enough so you can hammer in a plastic anchor. Works well and you do not have to worry about stud spacing/locating.

I use it for Tapcons and similar on occasion, and it works well enough in concrete. The drill is awesomely powerful for drilling framing members with auger bits and such, which I use it for daily.

This battery powered drill is a little champ. I use it to drill holes in cement from time to time; however, as for a steady diet of doing holes in cement or concrete, I use a plug-in-the wall rotary hammer style of drill. So, if you are in need of a good, small battery powered drill that you can drill a few (less than 3/8 in diameter) holes in concrete, this drill is fine.
