22UW53 carbide drill bit 1/2 in

The Westward 22UW53 is a straight carbide-tipped drill bit with a 1/2 in diameter and 22 1/2 in overall length. It uses an SDS Max shank measuring 45/64 in and offers a maximum drilling depth of 20 in. The bright uncoated finish suits general masonry work. It is intended for professionals drilling deep holes in concrete or stone.

SDS Max shank and rotary hammer fit

Confirm that your rotary hammer accepts SDS Max shanks before ordering. The bit requires a 45/64 in shank seat and a chuck mechanism designed for that system. SDS Plus or spline-drive tools will not hold this bit securely. Also verify the machine can accommodate the 22 1/2 in overall length without hitting guards or workpiece clamps.

Deep-hole masonry drilling

This bit suits installers and contractors who need 20 in of effective drilling depth in concrete, brick or block. It is not for light-duty DIY users with SDS Plus hammers, nor for metal, wood or tile applications. Buyers who need a coated flute for faster debris removal or a different diameter should look at other options.
