Hole bit

Would Recommend

This bit works great. It’s not near the price of others that do the same and I have no issues with it.

Cheap and useful

Would Recommend

Although 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 Recommend

I 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.
