What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise these drill bits for exceptional durability, reliability, and consistent performance across metals like mild steel and aluminum. Most report the bits drill cleanly and precisely without drifting, with many noting they significantly outlast previous brands. Reviewers highlight the sharp, hardened construction that cuts through materials efficiently, with several mentioning the bits handled hardened stainless without issues. A few users experienced dulling in extreme conditions like hardened steel, and some noted faster wear in aluminum, though most consider the quality worth the investment and would repurchase.

Not good for drilling steel beam.

Would Not Recommend

I wasn't entirely impressed with the durability of the drill bit based on the cost. I needed to drill severall holes in a 5/16" steel beam flange. The drill bit took longer than expected to complete the two holes. A third hole was needed but the drill bit was pretty dull by the completion of the second hole.

Cobalt shines

Would Recommend

Cobalt shines because it maintains its edge under high friction without softening. This help me drill on some rather difficult steel. Got the job Done.
