Best drill bit out there

Would Recommend

I don’t buy any other drill bits because the durability of these is incredible. They last so long even under constant use, I use these several times a week on cold rolled steel and they last me several months, they’re rigid, and they stay sharp for a long time.

Junk. Lasted two holes.

Would Not Recommend

Trying to get through 1/4 steel and it lasted two holes before it burned up. Complete waste of money. I expected more out of Spyder.

The only thing fast is how quickly it dulls

I bought this to drill into 3/16" steel posts. It took a ton of pressure on the drill to get it to cut the first 8 holes, and each one was slower than the last. Then it simply stopped cutting at all. I switched to a Milwaukee titanium bit I thought was too ordinary for the job. It sliced through the steel in seconds with no dropoff in speed through the final six holes. The Stinger ended up being a waste of money.

I needed to drill thru 1/8" steel bar. It went thru no problem. No need to pre punch. I put the but on the steel and it didn't slde around at all.
