DEWALT DW2002B25 Phillips Bit 25 Pack Review

I worked in the manufacturing industry for a number of years. Let me get a few things straight. if you have a car It's probably best if you have a vulnerability. So I said it and I won't get angry. If everything in this world was made of high strength material and had no elasticity then you would end up with catastrophic accidents if/when something went wrong. That's why cars have crumple zones. Why am I talking about this with drills? Because when you use the hardest bits on your soft screws…

These are pretty good bits that require a lot of torque and replace my old set of 25 DW2125s, but I also have a DW2402 set that I don't use because they are different. I've added a picture of the difference, and although both are #2 drywall bits, they are noticeably different. One has a weaker shank and a slightly narrower tip so it will work with most screws I have...even coated drywall screws. The other is thicker, has a blunter tip, and fits tightly on most of my screws...especially deck…

They didn't send me the tips they show in the box, they are tapered which will stick out on almost any type of screw. It's not really Revains' fault, it's Dewalt's, which has disappointed me greatly as I've been a regular customer since the 1960's when they sold Black & Decker. These tips are so bad they should be melted down for scrap. Now the tips they show in the pack are good and actually better and last longer than the new effective tips they are making now. Too bad I didn't open them…
