How to drill into brick motar when drill bit will only go in 1/4″?
My garage wall is brick mortar. I am hanging the rubbermaid Fasttrack rail (organizer). I was able to put one up but now when I drill the bit only goes in about 1/4inch. I am using a drill and bit designed for this material. It’s like I am hitting something. I thought it might be rebar but doesn’t that run vertically through the brick? I have tried hanging another rail a few feet below the one already up and same problem I can only get about 1/4″ into the wall. If I was hitting rebar I should not have been able to place on directly above it. Suggestions would be great! As I am stuck with what to do next.
There should not be rebar in the mortar joints of brick. Small rebar is 3/8″, the mortar joints in brick are usually not much thicker. There may be some other metal reinforcement there, but it should be rather thin. Your drill may hesitate a bit, but should go right on through.
You have a masonry bit, are you using the right drill? You should have a rotary hammer drill. A standard rotary drill will do the job, but you will have to pull it out to clean debris from the hole then go back in. It will be quite a bit slower than it would with a hammer drill.
Is the bit in good condition? Have the carbide points broken off?
Finally, are you sure the drill is turning the correct direction? Drilling backwards will make a dent, but not really do any major drilling. Probably will ruin the bit as well, so you may need a new one.
