I am very pleased with this drill bit set. They drill cleaner straighter holes than bits I have used before. These are very durable. They drill thru metal with no problem. Drills really fast on any surface you use them on. I like that it comes with a handy case to keep the bits together. I highly recommend this set.

All the bits you need are included in this package. I purchased it because I needed bits for my epoxy resin projects so I only needed the small ones. Figured my husband could use the bigger ones. So far we have used them on epoxy, we built a wooden swing set, and my husband put a crossmember on his truck and had to drill into the frame. Overall a quality set for many projects.

I purchased cobalt bits to drill stainless steel which these didn’t do as claimed. Otherwise they are a good bit.

I really like the Milwaukee Tool brand. Every tool I own is well made, and lasts forever. The Cobalt Red Helix set is perfect, it’s standard so it fits in all of my drills, and the bits work perfectly. They are well made, and will last for years to come. This set comes with all the sizes I need for all of my projects.

This 15 piece Cobalt Red Helix kit is very well made and durable. The case that it comes in is also well made and helps keep all the pieces organized. Ive used the bits on both wood and metal so far with no issues. They obviously worked better on the metal but its nice to be able to use the bits on all types of materials. Great addition to you tool box.

The Milwaukee cola KT red helix is a great 18 piece set with all the sizes needed for your DIY projects. The case is sturdy and snaps closed so you can throw it in the tool chest or junk drawer and have peace of mind to know none of the drill bits will get lost. They work great for all your projects indoor and out. Milwaukee has a brand I have trusted in the past and they didn’t disappoint this time either. This is a great little drill bit set I highly recommend.

This 15 piece cobalt drill bit set is perfect for your average Joe or for a handy man. The carrying case is heavy duty and convenient for storage and transportation. The bits are not easy to tug out, but they also don’t jostle around at all. The bits in the case pivot forward to allow for easy access and replacement. The performance of the actual bits themselves is great, I have been satisfied with the results. Overall a great functional product ! Highly recommend.

Have used them on aluminum projects and always use light lubricating oil when drilling. They work great and have stayed sharp!

I was drilling out rusted screws with cheap drill bits and they would break easily. These Milwaukee bits drilled great and did not break. Very pleased with these

Several weeks back, I was digging thru my toolbox looking for a certain size bit. After noticing I didn’t have it, I went to purchase one. I came across this 15 piece set and bought it right away. They are a great quality and didn’t dull after using. I like the fact that the sizes are display making it easy to grab a specific one. Having this set is handy knowing I have all the sizes I need in one place.

….ok, so I realize that you have to use these for a few times to be able to comment on how effective and lasting they are so take this review w/ a grain of salt. I’ve only used them a few times. I did cut into some 1/8″ thick aluminum and it cut through like butter. the bit didn’t slip at all, cut right through and left a very clean hole. I took a video but can’t seem to load it. Carrying case is nice too…I have another one that has a slide latch that is all jacked up, this one doesn’t look like it’ll do that but that’s pretty minor. Overall, big fan of these bits.

Purchased these to drill through steel tubing and plate. My titanium bits would break or would take forever. These cobalt bits go through with ease. Would definitely buy again!

Yet another example of cheapening what was a really nice set. In Home Depot, saw this set with a “New! Lower Price!,” now $34.99 versus $44.99. So I picked it up and immediately realized what HD and Milwaukee had done: they removed the 1/2″ drill bit and replaced it with an extra 1/16″ drill bit.So, are they good bits? Yes. I have them, use them, like them. Is a good value? No. They lowered the price ten bucks, but the difference between the cost of a cobalt 1/2″ and a cobalt 1/16″ is $11, so actually they raised the price by a buck and presented it as a better deal, hoping you wouldn’t notice.But I did. And as a result think just a little less of both brands.
