Did the job

Would Recommend

Works well with a hammer drill to drill hole in cinder block. Drilling a smaller pilot hole (1/4-3/8”) first will make drilling the 1”hole go much faster.

Subpar performance

Would Not Recommend

I was mounting security cameras on my home and heeded to drill three holes in brick. Bought this bit and it drilled one and one half holes before it quit drilling. Not a very good product in my opinion. Got a different brand and finished the job.
