Advertise concrete depth is 7/16 max. Will it drill a hole up to three inches deep?

Yes absolutely, I last used it to drill several 4 1/2" deep holes with great ease, just remember to clear (move drill in and out of hole) bit about every 1/2-1" !

that cant be depth. i have drilled a lot deeper. you can drill as long as the drill bit is. maybe that is supposed to be for diameter but i have used 1/2" bits. hope that helps

It will drill any depth, very powerful drill. You will need a long carbide tipped drill bit, I used a 16 inch bit and had no trouble.

You will have to drill 2 holes 3/8 inch diameter above your existing hole and in it goes.

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.

This model will drill through wood, metal and certain depths of concrete. Depending on your needs this one should be fine for most around the home needs. If your needs are for daily use drilling concrete I would suggest looking at some corded electric models specific for concrete. I hope this information helps your decision. I'm here for any other questions you have.

Yes it can. How well it does it depends the type of concrete (there are different strenghts) and type of aggreates (rocks) in the concrete. If you hit a rock it may slow down some but a good quality masonary bit will be able to overcome it. If your drilling large holes you may want to use a smaller bit first. The DCD950B works fine for this type of work.

Don't think there is any depth limit. I have used it just for drilling holes in wine bottles for the wife's home decorating efforts. It all depends on your drill/drill press and the material you're working with.

that's a pretty big hole. you need to go in slower, or increase the speed of the drill

It's got lots of power and sturdiness so I think it'll do fine with the correct bit. You might go through a few bits, depending on depth and strength of concrete but the drill will hold up.

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.

you need to measure the chuch hole what ever size it is will be what your looking for 3/8.. 1/4.. 5/16..

Thank you for your question. The tools in the CLPK234-181L will not work for drilling 3 inch holes. The maximum size is 2" for our cordless tools. A corded drill would be the best for drilling 3 inch holes. If you have further questions please feel free to contact our Bosch Customer Service Representatives at 1-877-BOSCH-99 (1-877-267-2499).

I"m not an experte but I'd purchase a concrete sonotube to pour the concrete above the grade by another 12"-14" inches so it becomes flush with your bball pad. Make sure you're adding to the total concrete depth though, not just reducing the amount of concrete undergroud. i.e. i can't recall but if the set up calls for 48 inches below ground level, you still need 48" plus another 12-14" above. i'd also buy longer rebar so they extend from the bottom of the hole all teh way to underside of the base plate. i'd also let the concrete cure longer before installing the post. concrete gets stronger over time. 3 days is the minimum. I'd let it cure for a week. I"m not an experte but I'd purchase a concrete sonotube to pour the concrete above the grade by another 12"-14" inches so it becomes flush with your bball pad.

I am not an expert but I think with a concrete drill bit, it would work....

Not able to check the manual right now - but I am sure it can bore over 1" depth - but likely more. The carbide cutters are about 1.5" long - so likely the max. It works outstandingly for cutting recessed light fixture holes in drywall.

Absolutely! With your choice of high speed or high torque, the high torque setting has plenty of muscle to drill concrete.

Yes I think it will drill a 6 " hole but I don't know if it will work in your drill I have a 1/2 " air drill.

We just use ours for aluminum. O625" thick max. It does OK. on that, but no thicker. The smaller the hole the easier it works. If you are doing mass quantities, I would look to another method.
