Excellent quality drill into metal as well as concrete.

Drill bit lives up to it’s “multi-material” name. Drilled through stucco, foam board, sheathing and into studs needed to install ledger boards during patio covers install. The bit remains fairly sharp after close to 100 hole usage. I will buy again if need arises.

Worked like a charm on thin metal track.

At first it worked fine, then it broke on the second use

Forcing text input on a review is inconsiderate of your reviewers. It does exactly what it should, very well.

Purchased this so I could mount a jbox to a cinderblock wall. I don’t have a hammer drill but with my M18 impact driver, this bit made easy work of the holes. Well worth it.

Using it in a drill (no hammer function) with a little water and it’s going through tile great
Carmel Maggio (verified owner) –
Easy to use and there’s no material I haven’t been able to drill.

Replaced older worn unit by another manufacturer and was pleasantly surprised. Very sharp. Ripped through materials cleanly and quickly, though used with smaller pilot holes to maintain bit position. A useful addition to the toolbox.

Used this bit to drill through brick when hanging my TV above the fireplace. Worked great.
Makenzie Mayer (verified owner) –
Did the job but didn’t last very long. Literally one day, about 15 holes.
Pierre Zboncak (verified owner) –
Too much force has to be used for you to drill a hole, then the materials are ripped after hole is made

It’s a great name and product, but like all tools… they wear out sooner if you force it. Let the tools do the work and you will have them for a very long time!

Did the job without issue

Powered through 60-year old concrete to install transition strips.

Worked great for what I needed

Excellent bit went thru concrete wall with very little resistance. I would recommend to anyone if they have to drill into hard concrete.
