Would Not RecommendThis bit broke on third whole. My cheap harbor freight bit bit actually did the job much faster without problems

Junk in my eyes
Not for steel! This snapped or dulled significantly FAST! 2 - 4 holes drilled through 1/4" steel and they were done for!

Wouldn’t drill through hardened steel
Although cobalt supposedly will drill through hardened steel, this wouldn’t cut at all. I bought this as a pilot for a 1/4” hole in hardened steel. Lowe’s didn’t have any carbide bits. I ended up forcing my HSS bits through and reaming to final size. I returned the 1/4” cobalt bit unopened and will use the 1/8” carbide for softer stuff.
