What Customers Are Saying

The product is generally well-made and useful for extending the reach of drill bits, with a sturdy construction and balanced design. However, some customers reported issues with the set screws, which can split or round out, making the bit difficult to remove. Additionally, the extension may not be suitable for use in a drill press due to safety concerns. Overall, the product's performance is satisfactory for most users, but the set screw problems are a notable drawback.

Put 3 end to end, and Drilled my Hole!

 Would Recommend

I purchased five 12" extensions so I could use up to 5 feet. In the process of putting them together one set screw, of the two on the extension, split when tightening using the short allen wrench with the unit. Now it is not possible to remove the set screw. It appears that the screws are not made from hardened steel. At first look after one split I thought they were plastic. In my 58 years I have had set screws round out or round over an allen wrench but never had one split. The extensi...
