Not good for drilling steel beam.
Would Not RecommendI 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 RecommendCobalt shines because it maintains its edge under high friction without softening. This help me drill on some rather difficult steel. Got the job Done.
