I had a project where I had to drill through a metal plate on an army trailer that I was afraid of. I bought these bits for a project and now drilling metal is much easier. My deck drilling went smoothly - almost like plywood drilling! Metal shavings flew! These bits are very well made and designed for metal cutting (material and angle). I expect them to last and give me years of good service. The case is very nice and sturdy. My only regret is that I regret not having bought them rather than using their old poor quality bits for so long they wasted a lot of time putting unnecessary wear and tear on my tools and also testing my patience. Get these, you won't regret it!
