this drill bit did exactly what I needed it for. I especially liked the guiding nipple at the tip. I have had it for a month now and needed it to drill a large hole into a barbecue in order to insert a thermometer.

I have doors that are made from recycled wood. I tried to drill holes through the door with a cheap-o drill bit I had and it took over 10 minutes to get one hole drilled. I bought this drill bit, and it turned that time into 10 seconds per hole. I wish I had purchased this before making the first hole.

The cobalt bit drills stainless steel well. The Milwaukee brand performs much better than the competition.

I break bits pretty often when hand drilling and these bits are cheap enough that I am not upset when I do and sharp enough that I break them less often. Great for mild steel.

Used this to drill through a locked door in my home that didn’t have a key. I used a normal drill bit for 30 minutes to no avail on the anti-drill insert. This drill bit got through in less than a minute.

Working on a deck project that requires me to drill into aluminum posts. This drill bit appeared to be the best that Home Depot had to offer for a metal project.

HD really wanted this review done; sent two requests. So, ok. I’ll write a review on a tiny, 1/16” drill bit. Here goes. I secured the drill bit in my drill, put the tip on the mark I’d made on my steel bathroom door, pulled on the power trigger and….drilled a hole. The tiny drill bit met my expectations. Well, there you go. Review done.

The best type of drill bit I use to work on stainless steel, the only bad point about them is that they are very fragile and break at the first mistake made during a manual drilling operation, but using correctly , they are the best!

Drilled 6 spot welds successfully while other drill bits broke or dulled quite quickly.

Item in great shape out of the container. Very sharp, definitely straight, and superb craftsmanship. Cut right through steel, wood and almost anything else you might desire. Excellent drill bit.

bit works great slow speed, we drill 15-20 sheets of steel roofing at a time 20 holes each sheet. lots of drilled feet by the end of the day. not the best bits in the world but will certainly work great if you know how to take care of them during use.

I am new to knife making. I have tried several different drills and this was the best of the lot for drilling hard metal. Drill speed is vital to successTool speed charts are available onlineI use 600 rpm on my drill press with a little motor oil
