Milwaukee 5 piece set drills and taps at the same time. No longer do you need to search for the corresponding drill bit to go with the tap that you need. The drill part drills fast, and the tap makes nice clean threads. These were designed for use with impact drivers and drill drivers. If you are drilling steel, I recommend you use the impact because as soon as the threads start cutting, the drill tries to twist on you potentially hurting your wrist or snapping the drill tap. (I tested both)The impact doesn’t catch at that point, it just starts impacting.

These Shockwave drill and tap combination tools work quite well in quarter inch or less mild steel, I do recommend you try controlling the drill speed to help prevent snapping the bit. They work best in the impact drill no chance of slipping inn the chuck. They also work good in plastic, wood and aluminum. To help keep them sharp I cut out the plastic tray they came in to store them in my tool box.

A drill tap is a combination of a drill and a tap in a single tool. The cutting end of the drill is a conventional drill bit. Further along the tool the drill flutes transition into a tapered thread cutting tap. This means that a threaded hole can be made with a single pass of the tool bit.When used with an impact driver there is no need to repeatedly stop and back up the tool, so the process of making tapped holes is much faster.
