SDS Max 4-Cutter 5/8 in Drill Bit
The Westward 22UW56 is a carbide-tipped hammer drill bit built for SDS Max rotary hammers. It targets professional contractors and serious DIY users who need to bore 5/8 in holes in concrete, masonry or stone. The four-cutter head geometry helps distribute impact forces across more cutting edges for faster material removal. Bright uncoated finish is standard for this accessory class.
SDS Max Shank Limits Drilling Depth to 11 in
The SDS Max interface locks the 45/64 in shank securely into the tool holder, but the 13-1/2 in overall length caps maximum drilling depth at 11 in. Deeper holes require a longer bit or an extension system not included with this item. Carbide tips resist wear in abrasive aggregate, yet the uncoated body offers no corrosion protection in wet environments.
Check Rotary Hammer Accepts SDS Max
Verify your rotary hammer uses an SDS Max chuck; SDS Plus or spline-drive tools will not accept this shank. Confirm the machine’s maximum bit diameter rating covers 5/8 in and that its impact energy suits the four-cutter design. Ensure the work piece allows at least 13-1/2 in of clear bit length for the required hole depth.

Questions about this item
Which Westward SDS Max bit should I choose for a 5/8 in hole?
The 22UW56 model is a 5/8 in diameter, 4-cutter carbide-tipped bit with 13-1/2 in overall length and 11 in maximum drilling depth.
What does the 11 in maximum drilling depth mean on the job?
You can drill up to 11 in deep into concrete or masonry before the flutes need clearing, using the full 13-1/2 in bit length in an SDS Max rotary hammer.
How does the SDS Max shank limit what this bit can do?
The SDS Max shank locks into SDS Max rotary hammers only; it will not fit SDS Plus or spline-drive tools, and the 45/64 in shank diameter matches the SDS Max standard.
