Dewalt DW5918 Sds Max Core Bit 2-3/4x12 Inches Carbide

Product Description

The DEWALT DW5918 is a carbide-tipped SDS Max core bit designed for heavy-duty core drilling in concrete, masonry, and similar hard materials. Built as a single-piece unit measuring 2-3/4 inches in diameter and 12 inches in length, it connects via the SDS Max shank system, which is standard on full-size rotary hammer drills used in commercial and industrial applications. The carbide cutting tip provides durability under the high torque and impact loads generated by SDS Max rotary hammers. This bit is suited for trade professionals who need consistent, clean cores through reinforced or unreinforced concrete structures.

The DW5918 is appropriate for applications such as core drilling through concrete walls, floors, and block for conduit, pipe, and sleeve penetrations. It is sized at 2-3/4 inches, a common diameter for sleeve anchors, conduit runs, and through-wall penetrations in residential and commercial construction. Licensed electricians, plumbers, and general contractors working with SDS Max rotary hammers will encounter this bit in structural drilling scenarios where depth and diameter consistency are critical.

Key Features

• 2-3/4 inch cutting diameter for standard conduit and pipe penetration work
• 12 inch length provides sufficient depth for most wall and slab applications
• SDS Max shank interface for use with full-size rotary hammer drills
• Carbide cutting tip rated for concrete and masonry drilling
• Single-piece construction eliminates assembly and reduces failure points

Compatibility

Designed for use with SDS Max rotary hammer drills. The SDS Max shank is a standardized interface common across full-size rotary hammer platforms from multiple manufacturers.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed and operated by licensed tradespeople using SDS Max rotary hammers in core drilling mode. Before drilling, confirm the work area is clear of embedded conduit, rebar, or utilities by consulting structural drawings or using a scanning tool. Wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and hearing protection during operation. Follow all applicable OSHA and local safety codes when drilling overhead or in confined spaces.
