What Customers Are Saying
The cobalt drill bits demonstrate mixed performance. Many users report the bits effectively drill through hardened steel, stainless steel, and other tough materials, with some describing them as highly capable. However, a significant number have experienced issues, including bits breaking, dulling, or failing to meet expectations, especially with smaller sizes. While the bits appear well-suited for challenging drilling tasks, the quality and durability seem inconsistent. Users recommend caution, slow speeds, and cutting oil when drilling, especially with smaller bit sizes.

They did the job.
Would RecommendWe had to drill out a exhaust stud on a turbo charger. We basically ruined most of the drill bits getting a hole drilled through the broken stud and enlarging the hole big enough to use a nut and bolt in it’s place. I think it’s a good value for the money. Kobalt drill bits work the best in my opinion. I primarily use for metal projects.

barely good for one use
Would Not RecommendUsed them to drill out a sheered bolt, the ones I used turned into one time use bits
Worth the money
Would RecommendThese cut metal like it was butter. And more than once.....unlike the harbor freight drill bits which are garbage.

Making a hole
Would RecommendFrom what I can tell so far I will say that the cobalt twist drill bit is an excellent tool. I have only used two of the bits and I was able to drill through aluminum with no problems.

The right tool for cutting through hardened steel
Would RecommendThese cobalt twist drill bits are an excellent tool for cutting through hardened steel. It makes quick work of an activity that dulls other bits. Worth the price.

Dewalt cobalt bits
Would RecommendI was able drill 13 holes in a 13 gage stainless plate with ease Love this bits after broke two steel bits
Tough bits for drilling hardened steel.
Would RecommendI am replacing a set of these that I have had for 16 years. There are no permanent drill bits. These stay on center when drilling hardened steel and do not dull easily. In case you didn't know, Cobalt added to the composition keeps the bit from dulling easily as it heats up. Like they do when drilling hardened steel. The machinists I have worked with referenced this quality as "red hardness". If you are drilling wood or softer materials, less expensive drills will do a fine job. Keep these stash...

Eat through metal
Would RecommendThese cobalt bits were exactly what I needed when recently working on my friends cars exhaust system. They bite right into the metal and cutting was a breeze in comparison to my titanium set.
