What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the drill bit's exceptional sharpness and durability when cutting through steel and hard materials, with most noting it stays sharp through multiple holes and handles thick steel plates without overheating. Many highlight reliable, consistent performance across demanding applications. However, some report frustration with shank size discrepancies—receiving 1/2" shanks instead of advertised 3/8" or 11/32", making them incompatible with certain drills. A few users experience premature dulling or bending, though these issues are uncommon. Overall, most customers consider it a dependable choice despite compatibility concerns.

Drill bit
Would RecommendIt’s a drill bit A few dollars cheaper I would of bought more. The reduced shaft is nice so you don’t have to have your 1/2 inch drive drill with you at all times.

Works well
Would RecommendWe needed this drill bit for a Larson storm door. Didnt find this out until we were putting it together. This bit is VERY HARD to find that will fit a regular drill with out attachment.
