Key Features of Drill Bits

  • Multiple Shank Options: You can find round, hex and slotted drive shaft (SDS) shanks that are compatible with standard drills and hammer drills.
  • Organized Storage Cases: Clearly labeled cases make it easier to identify sizes and transport drill bit sets between projects.


How to Choose Drill Bits

  • Match the Material: Select drill bits that are designed specifically for wood, metal or masonry surfaces, depending on your project.
