Review of IIT (Brad Point) Drill Bit Set - 7 Piece, 1/8in. Dia. to 1/2in. Dia.

I paid more shipping than the product itself, they are low-end drill bits but work. The main drawback is that they are not very good "balanced" or "centralized" and cause vibration.

Review of Milwaukee 48-89-1082 Thunderbolt 13 Piece 1/16-Inch to 1/4-Inch Black and Bronze Twist Drill Bit Assortment in Plastic Barrel Index

This is a handy set of small diameter bits.The case is useful.It dispenses one bit at a time and keeps the bits from being lost in my drawer a little better than a standard flat case of the sort that seems to always open up and lose its bits.The bits themselves are nothing more or less than what we used to expect a drill bit to be before we started seeing the flood of imitation tools from "emerging industrial economies."Sadly in today's market what we old guys used to think of as just an ordinary drill bit has become a superior product.

Review of Complete Pro-Grade 115-Piece Titanium Drill Bit Set - Fractional, Numbered, Lettered Bits - Metal In

This was packaged well by the reseller, but the weight of the drill bits in transit actually damaged the metal Index Case, causing the sections to break the rivets holding them, and bending the case... also caused many bits to dislodge... if I hadn't had a micrometer, I'd never get the small ones placed back correctly in the Index.While doing this, I found that one of the lettered bits is actually NOT the correct size.It was affordable, but you get what you pay for.

Click Here to see more reviews about: Complete Pro-Grade 115-Piece Titanium Drill Bit Set - Fractional, Numbered, Lettered Bits - Metal In

Product Description:
Titanium is an incredibly hard steel alloy (the military uses Titanium for tank armor) and it makes an excellent cutting surface for other, hard steels like stainless or spring steel. But Titanium steel has less ductile strength (flexibility) and can become brittle in some applications. So we start with a strong, high-carbon steel shaft manufactured for superior ductile strength and braze it with Titanium to get the best of both worlds: an incredibly sharp and hard cutting surface on a drill bit with some 'give'. This set includes sized bits 1/16 to 1/2-inch by 1/64ths, lettered bits A - Z, and numbered bits #1 to #60. Comes in a metal index organizer case with handle to keep every bit in it's place and easy to find.

Review of Vermont American 12635 13 Piece 1/16-Inch to 1/4-Inch Cobalt Twist Drill Bit Assortment in Metal Index

I bought these for replacement bits in a larger set, that someone at work broke or burnt them up. They work great, especially with the split point. The main thing with using drill bits is turn them only fast enough that they cut and not any faster.

Review of Yukon Tool YT115CD 115 Bit Cobalt Twist Drill Bit Asortment in Metal Index

I am a professional contractor & electrical engineer with more than 30 years experience.Usually, I buy American made tools and accessories ONLY.Thought I'd take a chance on these. BIG MISTAKE.
Drills arrived in POOR PACKAGING.Several had fallen out of CHEAP METAL BOX.The drills were BARELY SHARPENED & OFF-CENTER.
The drills are multi-colored - obviously from overheating in cheap oil to make them "LOOK" special.
There is no independent confirmation these are cobalt alloy.In fact, I used three of them just to drill slowly into dry oak base molding.BROKE THREE DRILLS INSIDE OAK!!!WTF!!!I will never buy tools again from the Tool Crib, or from Amazon.Stick with USA made such as Norseman, Tru-Cut or Triumph Twist.Sure, you pay two to three times more, but you'll never break one unless you use it for a chisel.
This is what happens when one try to savea few $$$ and buys product made by forced CHINESE PRISON LABOR.

Review of (Cobalt) Drill Bits - 1/16in. Dia. to 1/2in. Dia., 29-Pc. Set

After much web searching, this drill set offers very high quality for the price.

I use them for maintenance work on commercial kitchen equipment (mostly stainless steel). These drills outperform any that I have used previously.

My only gripe is with the very flimsy pivots in the drill index. The three drill holders in the index, pivot on pierced upsets, rather than rivets and tend to pop out of place.

Aside from that minor issue, I would recommend them highly to anyone looking for an economical set of drill bits for hard to drill metals.

Review of Milwaukee 48-89-0050 29-Piece 1/16-Inch to 1/2-Inch Cobalt Twist Drill Bit Assortment in Metal Index

These are what drill bits should be, they are straight and sharp.I was using my drill press when tired them.First on wood, they started where I wanted, no skipping, cut clean, both entry and exit, true, with out deflection, and with such ease from the smallest to the largest in softwood or hardwood.This wasn't love but it was a thrill I was totally satisfied right then but I had to try metal.The same results I don't work with Stainless or Titanium.These bits are a real pleasure.These are the most expensive set of Drill Bits that I have ever purchased I'm sorry I spent so much money on cheaper bits.
