DEWALT DW563K 7/8-Inch Variable-Speed Reversing SDS Plus Rotary Hammer Kit

by DEWALT

Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The DW563K is an excellent hammer for 5/32-to-1/2-inch anchor-hole drilling, and is capable of handling 5/8-inch holes for 1/4-inch drop in anchors as well. A rotation-only mode is provided on the hammer for drilling through ceramic tile as well as wood or metal. Heavily sealed to keep grease and dust out, the gear box is also designed to move heat away from the hammer mechanism, which keeps it running cool. Includes side handle, depth rod, and carrying case.

This review is from: DEWALT DW563K 7/8-Inch Variable-Speed Reversing SDS Plus Rotary Hammer Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)

This Dewalt Model has a spline shank chuck. To use the accessories that are shown ie; sds plus bits, calls for an adapter that changes from spline to sds plus. This adapter does not come with hammer drill and must be purchased separately. Anyone buying the sds plus bits as shown will be quite upset when they can't use them right away. There are a number of adapters available: spline to max, & spline to a 1/4-20 threaded end to accept a hammer drill chuck for round type shanks. With these as part of the total kit, you have a very good hammer drill. You have a very good hammer drill if you choose to use only spline shank bits, also.
