Holds bits good while you’re using and you don’t have to fight to get the bit out if you need to change bits.

Compact and the magnet is much stronger than Dewalt or Irwin. The only one I’ll use

I’ve had the same problem as some of the others here. The bit retaining spring is too tight making it very hard to get the bit in and out. The first time I used it, I had to tap the bit into position with a hammer then I could not get it out. I finally clamped the bit into my vise then tried to pull off the bit holder without any success. Finally I took a blade screwdriver and wedged it between the vise and the bit holder and pried it off. I did this several more times before it finally loosened up a little. Now I can get the bit inserted with no problem but still need pliers to pull the bit out. Not a problem now unless the bit breaks or need to need to switch the bit to another driving method, square drive, etc. At least I don’t have to worry about the bit falling out. The magnet works great and the bit holder seems to be be built quite well but my next one will be a different brand.

Milwaukee shockwave contact magnetic tip works great holds the tip very securely and appears that it will last a long long time.

Just bought this bit holder after reading many reviews of bit holders. This one seems to be the right one for me. It holds bits securely, enough to be able to throw it around with a bit in it and it stay intact. Not very hard to remove as other reviews have said. Strong magnet, enough to hold up a 3/8 drive 9/16 socket and swing it around a bit without it falling off so itll hold any screw you throw at it. Overall seems to be a good product for $4. Now I dont have to depend on finding the right driver ready bit every time! Just be aware the bit looks different than what is originally pictured

The only thing I can suggest is a stronger magnet

Nothing wrong with the product but I thought it was another type of extender that has a tube that goes over the screw and it didn’t so I didn’t care for it

These are the best on the market, I have literally tried them all!

It’s compact, and fits tightly in my impact gun.With that said, the magnetic ability is No Different than any other bit holder…disappointing. I was using 2” deck screws horizontally, and the screw kept falling down off the bit.

I went for this one instead of the standard size tip holder. A fair bit of warning: the magnet inside is a little too strong… im 24years old 190lbs and can never pull the bits out after putting them in without the use of pliers. It kind of makes the quick bit changes pointless because of the magnet strength. I tried removing the tiny spring retainer and even lubed it but ruled it out to be the magnet.I resolved my issue by sticking a little ball of plumbers putty inside to create a small gap between the bits and the magnet to reduce the magnet strength…dont know how long this will last but these things are cheap enough to replace..

Hold the bits tight and transfer the magnet to the screws. Strong than the dewalt unit

People all bit holders no matter what mfg you buy get stuck bits. Can’t get around it.It’s the nature of the beast. Friction heat and impact distort mechanisms. So, I would suggest buying additional extensions and dedicate them to each bit you use . In some cases you get the extension stuck in the impact driver itself and I find the easiest way to get it out is chuck up the extension in a bench chuck still attached to the impact driver and squirt some W D 40 in the adjoining chuck and wiggle it free.

Holds bits well. No issues

I have 3 of these on 3 different ridgid impact/pulse drivers. They never leave the tool and one has lasted 3 plus years. These are fantastic compared to other companies
