Misleading and Inefficient Industrial Drill Bit

As a result of my tests, I determined that this industrial drill bit is far from being "bulldog tough." It failed to make a clean hole and left a jagged edge on the material. It's also too short to handle thicker pieces of material making it useless for more demanding tasks. The only positive thing about this drill bit is its price, but the quality surely does not match. Save yourself the disappointment and opt for a better-quality industrial and scientific drill bit..

Pros
  • Affordable
Cons
  • Inefficient, Not durable.

Essential: Hammer drill bit

Strong German steel designed to penetrate or break concrete containing pebbles. No matter how strong pebble concrete is, it wears out. However, this will take some time as the tip is designed to hold a tip. Great tool for this little job. Note: This is an SDS Plus bit and requires an SDS drill/hammer to operate.

Pros
  • Patented heat treatment process
Cons
  • Requires socket
