For a drill bit this one is easy to center and cuts through 1/4 inch steel plate with ease. Aluminum is no problem at all. Wish Milwaukee would design brad point drill bits in this and other sizes for woodworking.

I bought this drill bit to make a hole in a piece of 1/4″ flat steel for a Jeep Project. I haven’t use it yet, but I feel sure that it will work well for the project. Milwaukee has made many high quality tools, and I feel safe assuming that this will be good as well.

Under VERY rare occasions do I take time to comment; however: The women that helped me out here took the extra time to get my drill bit. Hire more like her…. That said your crew over at Alexandria VA is doing a great job.

I purchased the shock 1/4 bit because I lost the one that was in my set. I love the bits..they do a super job. They are a little tough removing them from the case…I suppose I should where gloves …might make it easier.

The Milwaukee Shockwave drill bits provide excellent results for the money. We use these to pre drill holes in steel I-Beams in Industrial Buildings to then install self tapping metal screws for our fire extinguisher brackets. They can be used for multiple holes, and tend to keep performing excellently, time after time. An awesome drill bit for the money spent. Best Regards, United Fire Consultants, Knoxville Tennessee.
