DEWALT 20V MAX Rotary Hammer, SDS Plus, 1-1/8-Inch, Tool Only (DCH263B)

This rotary hammer works so well, I was using my parents corded Bosch hammer drill when the brushes burnt out, and I’ve been adding to my 20v collection so figured it was time to buy my own hammer drill. But I decided might as well go one step further since I have so many drills and drivers already. I’ll start off with saying this doesn’t seem very powerful. I don’t know what all magic they’ve done in here but it feels anemic when the motor spins, the hammer drill from Bosch could be felt through your body, and could be heard down the block. This one is quiet, and here’s the weird part, it works so good at drilling through concrete. Used a 5/8” bit, went through the concrete without any struggle, barely put my weight on the device. It felt, in comparison to the Bosch, like it would be struggling, but it showed it up in record time. Seriously, like took like 5 seconds per hole to drill. I installed over a dozen tapcons for a pergola using this to drill the holes, worked beautifully. You will want a 5a or larger battery, one it will use it up somewhat quickly, and two those batteries actually contain a higher voltage unless you have the new power stack batteries. After using this, I had no arm fatigue at all. The shocks and everything built into the device made it so easy to handle, like using a normal drill to drill into soft wood.

We recently moved to Florida where concrete block walls are pretty common. I needed to install a lot of electrical boxes and shelf brackets in a shop building, and I have a Bosch hammer drill that I’ve used many times in the past but infrequently, on jobs not requiring many drillings all at once. But after a few days of continuous use, my left hand became extremely painful and weak (I’m a lefty). I did an online search for hammer drills and saw this one highly recommended to prevent the kind of pain I was experiencing. After the first use I was sold. There is little impact to your hand due to the built in cushioning. And with a good set of SDS drills it is also very fast. If you have a lot of concrete or block wall drilling to do, save your hand and spend the money for this drill. It’s worth every dollar. And the bonus is the battery power as opposed to corded. I use a 5 AH and it provides excellent power.

I’ve had this drill for about a year and a half and have drilled a few holes in the hard rock around our house with impressive results. I had also purchased a bull point bit with the drill but hadn’t given it much though. We have some small hard rocky outcrops in our driveway that I’ve worked on over the years trying to get rid of, but they are so difficult to break out that I stopped working on them. I was experimenting with the bull point on another project where I need to break up some rock and was amazed at how well it worked, so I tried it on the obnoxious rock in our driveway and was once again amazed at what I was able to accomplish. Before I knew it, I had a sizable pile of broken rock and a whole lot smoother driveway. This is not a big bad jackhammer, but if you’re patient and efficient, you can do a lot of damage with this drill. I am able to work a couple of hours with a 6AH battery, and by the way, the Dewalt bull point is still as sharp as when I started using it. I am very satisfied with this hammer drill and would definitely recommend it.

Thank you for max price for me,and the item work perfect, thank you

Me pareció q tiene más fuerzas q los demás, sin duda alguna tiene un torque tremendo hay q agarrarlo fuerte

Bottom line, for the money, this is one of the best bang for your buck SDS Demo/hammer drill’s you’ll find. Puts out just .3 Jules of energy less than its cousin for half the price. Sure it’s not as compact as the bottom motor mounted version, but it works nearly as fast and may have a better handle design(but that’s mostly preference). The biggest nagging issue for me is storing in my tool box. Why can’t they make this with a folding/removable handle? I have to remove the handle every time I put it away. I’d love to see one of these with a side folding handle.

Build quality is solid, it has really good power for its size, easy to use. Took out 3 commercial office block walls with it on day one. Compared it to a slightly larger electric Makita and although that had a little more power, I would take this cordless over it any day.

Excelente

Esse martelete da Dewalt é sem comentários... Excelente como todos os equipamentos da marca... Maravilhoso!

I’ve been using the DEWALT 20V MAX Rotary Hammer Drill for a few weeks now, and I’m thoroughly impressed. As someone who tackles both DIY projects and more demanding construction work, I needed a tool that combines power, durability, and convenience — and this drill delivers on all fronts. The hammer function packs a serious punch, making quick work of concrete and masonry without wearing me out. The build quality is what you’d expect from DEWALT: solid, well-balanced, and rugged enough for tough job site conditions. It’s also surprisingly lightweight for the amount of power it delivers, which makes extended use far more comfortable. Battery life is excellent with the 20V MAX system, and I love that it's compatible with the other DEWALT tools in my collection. The vibration control is another standout feature — it noticeably reduces fatigue, especially during longer drilling sessions. Whether you're a professional or a serious DIYer, this rotary hammer is a fantastic investment. It’s dependable, efficient, and clearly built with real-world use in mind. Highly recommended.

Todo ok. Funciona bien gracias 🙂

This is a rare model, isn’t really sold in stores, nice improvement over the regular d handle. Very happy

Vale cada peso que pagas por el equipo. Es muy Potente, si bien el rango de perforación máximo recomendado es de 1-1/8" , hice una perforación de 2-1/2" pulgadas usando broca pasamuros usando la bateria flexvolt de 9 Amp. Para este tamaño de perforación (2-1/2") No recomiendo usar las baterías de 2 Amp en mi experiencia la batería se sobrecargo por el tamaño del orificio aunque si logró perforar la mitad de un muro de 7", hice cambio a la flexvolt de 60 V.
