What Customers Are Saying

This high-quality drill bit effectively drills through tough materials like hardwood and concrete with minimal effort. The extended length allows users to reach areas that would be inaccessible with a standard bit, making it useful for running wires and cables. Customers consistently praise the bit's sharpness, durability, and ability to maintain its edge even after extensive use. It drills clean, precise holes without excessive vibration or binding. While a few customers experienced issues, the majority of reviews are highly positive, considering this an excellent choice for a wide range of projects requiring extended reach and power.

Drill hole in tight spot between floor joists

Would Recommend

This was the perfect solution to drilling a wiring hole in a tight spot between floor joists. I needed a drill long enough to reach at least 11 inches up between the basement wall and the 2 X 10 floor joists.

Fine, but a little goofy

Would Not Recommend

Drills quick, pretty clean for the type. What's goofy is 1. the hex isn't standard, so it won't fit your standard 1/4" quick connect, 2. there is no hole in the spade end, so in spite of being long enough to span studs, you can't easily pull wire with it.
