Hi what size masonry bit do I use for a m12 bolt with m14 plastic plug into a brick wall.

Hi
Thanks for the question, it is a little confusing you should be using the same size bolt as rawl plug.
But as you are drilling into masonry and with such a large bolt i would suggest using an anchor bolt or expansion bolt instead of a plastic rawl plug.
M12 x 80mm Rawl expanding bolt anchor with steel wings and threaded rod projecting 15mm, for heavy duty fixing heavy loads in hard and reinforced aggregate of a minimum depth of 100mm including hollow core block. Fixing requires 20mm SDS drill bit and a minimum hole depth of 85mm.
