DeWALT Rotary Hammers
DeWALT SDS PLUS and SDS MAX Rotary Hammers
DeWALT rotary hammers drill and chip concrete, block, and brick. SDS PLUS models handle anchor holes and light chiseling: the XTREME 12V MAX DCH072, the ATOMIC 20V MAX DCH172, the DCH273 and DCH133 1-inch hammers, the DCH263 D-handle and DCH293 L-shape 1-1/8 inch XR models, and the DCH416 60V MAX. For larger holes and demolition, SDS MAX options include the DCH775 60V MAX 2-inch combination hammer and corded combination hammers from 1-9/16 to 1-3/4 inch. Some kits add a dust extractor.
What to Look For
- Bit system. SDS PLUS for smaller holes and anchors; SDS MAX for large holes, coring, and heavy chipping.
- Handle style. D-handle models are compact; L-shape models put more weight behind the bit.
- Dust control. Kits with an attached extractor capture dust at the bit.
- Power source. 12V and ATOMIC suit overhead anchors; 60V MAX and corded hammers handle sustained work.

DeWALT Rotary Hammers FAQ
Do I need SDS PLUS or SDS MAX?
Most trades drilling anchor and through-holes are well served by SDS PLUS. Choose SDS MAX if you regularly drill large holes or break concrete. The two bit shanks are not interchangeable.

Under DeWALT's standard warranty, power tools carry a 3-year limited warranty, a 1-year free service contract for maintenance and worn parts, and a 90-day money-back guarantee. Bits and accessories are excluded, and terms follow the warranty stated on each product.
