This bit is VERY brittle! Broke bit & shank...
Would Not RecommendI used this bit to drill a bolt out of the steering knuckle on my car. At first, everything was going great! I kept the workpiece well oiled and this bit was drilling FAST, even at low drill speed. When it got through to the end, however, the drill bit hit a burr and *snapped* in two places. Part of the end of the bit snapped off, and the shank also snapped off. This was a very basic household drill, 20 years old, so not extraordinarily powerful. The bit was great while it lasted, but it didn't...

Not really good for slot of holes
Would Not RecommendDidn’t last long

Still sharp.
Would RecommendSo far over 90 holes through 3 layers of galvanized steel and it seems like it went through the last hole as fast as it did the first one. From now on my bit of choice is Stinger Mach-Blue.

No Good
Would Not RecommendBased on good reviews, I purchased two (2) 1/4" bits. Had three (3) holes to drill in metal t-post. Was unable to drill the (3) holes with two bits. They went in the trash. Purchased bits from local hardware store to complete the task. DO NOT BUY! Waste of $16.96 plus tax and trip.
Broke first use
Would Not Recommend3/32" bit snapped in half on the actual very first use, 10 minutes after purchase.
Brittle and doesn't cut well.
Would Not RecommendBroke within seconds with little to no pressure applied. I just bought this to test the quality. I'm glad I purchased a Dewalt set too otherwise I would have finished my project.
