shield anchor hole size

For an M10 shield anchor, what is the typical hole size required in the brick for the sleeved part ? I need to know if I have a large enough drill. Cheers, Simon.

16mm, usually.

Use an SDS!

16mm IIRC.

Thought of Multi Montis?

Yes, 12mm for a sleeve anchor (smooth sided tube body) but 16mm for a shield anchor (heavyweight split body, aka rawlbolt).
