Cheap and useful
Would RecommendAlthough made for wood, I bought it to cut holes for a handle on a metal screen door. Worked perfectly, and cheaper than any bit made for metal!

Cuts fast,stays sharp longer
Would RecommendI buy the Irwin Speed Bore bits all the time because they stay sharp longer than other bits I have bought in the past and cut fast. I use them doing lots of electrical work to bore through sometimes ancient studs. 120 year old oak rough cut true 2" X 4"s will test your bits and Irwin stands up to it.
