Good quality bit, requires 1/2 " chuck

Nice and sharp, works well in 1/4" steel plate with a drill press. A note: the reduced shank will not fit the standard 3/8" chuck, only the larger 1/2" (or larger) chuck.

Pros
  • Jobber's bit
Cons
  • No instructions

Drill bit blunt after drilling 3 holes in galvanized pipe

I bought this drill bit to drill holes in some standard galvanized harbor pipe. After the second hole - the bit almost didn't work. Even with the addition of coolant, the drill dulled to the point of being unusable. Totally dissatisfied with this product.

Pros
  • Electric Drill Parts and Accessories
Cons
  • No Power

It broke on first use - Jobber Drill

Started drilling a 14mm hole to 9/16 (14.3mm) and one side of the blade snapped off immediately. It was mild steel. Kinda disappointing. I bought this beat for this project and now I'm stuck in the middle. Send back. Maybe it's just a coincidence, but I still had to spend a long day trying to find a new beat.

Pros
  • Drill
Cons
  • Non Automatic
