Not worth the investment

As a result of using this industrial and scientific product i found that the quality didn`t live up to the price. The pros were the size which was perfect for larger drill holes.However, the cons outweighed them as it broke easily and didn't work for long projects. I would not recommend this product to anyone looking for a reliable and sturdy drilling shank..

Pros
  • Allows for precise, clean and flat bottomed holes
Cons
  • Requires a drill press to use effectively

Powerful and precise drilling tool

We tried this industrial drill bit and were thoroughly impressed with its performance. Based on our own experience this drill bit is highly recommended for those in need of a powerful and precise tool for drilling jobs .The bit is built to last and the shank provided excellent stability during use. However, the only downside we noticed is its relatively large size, making it unsuitable for smaller drilling tasks. Overall, a great addition to any industrial and scientific toolkit..

Pros
  • Allows for precise and accurate drilling of large holes.
Cons
  • Not compatible with drill presses with smaller chucks.

Poor Quality: Power Tool Parts and Accessories

Poor quality, not very sharp. I had it drilled inside the 2 3/4" diameter circle I laid out, then I was going to use a flush router to trim the hole to 2 3/4". Not at all happy that my project was delayed.

Pros
  • Works with plywood, hardwood, softwood, veneer and unlaminated chipboard. Designed to fit most brands, fits all drill bits and jigs
Cons
  • weak
