Review on Dewalt DW5440 16 18 Inch Carbide by Marcos Fiallo

Revainrating 2 out of 5

DeWalt SDS 1/2 " x 18 " bit

Just received so can't comment on durability yet. If I understand the expression "elongated tetrahedral helix" to mean that the cutting tip is in the shape of a plus sign (+), then the description is incorrect. The one I received has a standard two groove design. The accompanying note on the packaging states that it is guaranteed for life against breakage through to complete wear and tear. It's rare to get a guarantee on a tool that has to cut the toughest of materials. Considering the price, this is a very good deal.

Pros
  • CARBIDE tip for longer bit life
Cons
  • Not sure
