What Customers Are Saying
Most customers praise these drill bits for sharp performance and clean drilling through metal, wood, and aluminum when they function properly. However, many report significant durability issues, with bits breaking or shattering unexpectedly during light-duty tasks like drilling soft wood or pre-drilling deck screws. Some describe the material as brittle and prone to snapping within seconds or after only a few holes. Despite these concerns, satisfied users highlight long-lasting performance under repeated use and appreciate the hex shank design. Overall, performance appears inconsistent—some bits excel while others fail prematurely.

broke them 2 bits in no time drilling soft wood!
Would Not Recommendbroke them 2 bits in no time on soft wood! Don't waste your money on this kobalt brand. for about the same price you can have ONE USA made Spyder Stinger Mach-Blue. that ONE is all I needed. spyder bit didn't break, it is fast and got me thru the whole job with ease and confidence. I didn't get paid for this review nor have any interest in spyder products. Just sharing the experience and trying to save y'all some time and money.

Drill bit broke within minutes
Would Not RecommendThis drill bit is definitely made of poor materials. On the second or third hole I drilled it quit spinning straight and almost seemed bent. I think the bit broke where it attaches to the base causing this. I definitely won’t buy a bit like this again and just get a normal one that doesn’t have the piece at the end that is supposed to help keep it from spinning in the chuck.
Good for aluminum
Would RecommendDrills through aluminum great.

Horrible service
Product is fine. Service is horrible!!! I want to order custom cabinets. There is only one lady who can do that and she is never available. No body answers the phone in the Dublin store.
