WRONG DRILL BIT, LOWE'S
Would RecommendTHE drill bit I purchased was a Bosch Bulldog Xtreme 8 (8 cutter carbide head), 1/2"X6". I'm going to use it to drill 2 holes in the concrete cover of the opening of my concrete septic tank so I can install a ubolt to lift the top off the tank when having it pumped out. The original ubolt was cast into the cover and has rotted out. It's worrisome to me that Lowe's systems would identify the incorrect item as my purchase. And I'm a Lowe's stockholder!!
