| Excellent quality and durability | |
| I was amazed at the rate these drill bits chew through metal... I drilled through a 1/4" of a piece of tempered steel in half a minute and through 16ga copper sheet in barely a second. The cobalt bits in the copper were incredible, I did not even have to apply much pressure to get the bit to bite. Very impressed. | |
| Great bits in a sturdy case | |
| What a great purchase! The bits are sharp and sturdy, and they cut through wood like it's butter. They come to a point at a wide angle, so they're less likely to slide away from your drilling point as you start drilling. I've only owned them for a few weeks, so I can't attest to how long they'll stay this sharp. Also, I've yet to try drilling through metal. The set comes with two bits for some of the popular sizes, which is great since I tend to lose or break my 1/8" bit all the time. The case itself is quite sturdy, but a little oversized. The bits are held firmly in place, so you never open your case after a bumpy car ride to have all 13 bits fall to your feet. If you own a DeWalt drill, it fits snugly in the drill case. |
