The DeWalt DW5471 SDS+ hammer bit offers outstanding performance. It features a rock carbide tip, which provides maximum durability and a long service life. The open head design allows for quicker material removal, while the elongated 4 - flute design enables faster drilling. This bit has a diameter of 5/8 inches, a usable length of 8 inches, and an overall length of 10 inches, making it a reliable choice for various drilling tasks.

Using the DeWalt DW5471 SDS+ hammer bit is straightforward. First, make sure your hammer drill is compatible with SDS+ bits. Insert the bit firmly into the drill chuck until it locks in place. When starting to drill, apply gentle pressure at the beginning to get a proper start. As you drill, maintain a steady pressure but don't push too hard, as the bit is designed to do the work efficiently on its own. For safety, always wear safety goggles to protect your eyes from flying debris. When you're done using the bit, clean it with a brush to remove any dust or debris. Store it in a dry place to prevent rusting. If the bit becomes dull over time, it might be time to replace it for continued good performance.
