Would RecommendWent throug the metal like butter. My old bits sucked.
Eh drill bit I would pass
Would Not RecommendMaybe I was using it too hard or it didn't quite fit the different drills I used; but I was getting the same issue where the part in the drill (silver/grey portion) would spin with the drill but the actual bit would not spin/drill.
Drill bit
Kobalt brand drill bits are great for drilling into metal.
From 9_SLASH_64-in 3-1_SLASH_4-in Titanium Coated HSS Jobber Length Twist Drill Bit Verified Purchaser
After trying other brands of drill bits, and finding out that don't drill into metal very well, I discovered that the Kobalt brand works best for metal drilling.
