Disappointing Performance from Industrial Drill Bit

This Industrial and Scientific drill bit failed to meet my expectations. While the reduced shank is convenient for larger drills, the bit struggled to make clean holes and often caused the material to splinter .The bit also dulls quickly, making it unusable after just a few projects..

Pros
  • Reduced shank is convenient for larger drills
Cons
  • Poor performance, dulls quickly, causes splintering

Terrible Performance: Not Worth the Money

Based on my experience, I would not recommend this industrial drill bit to anyone. Despite being marketed as tough and durable, it failed to make clean cuts and struggled to handle tougher materials... This left me feeling frustrated and disappointed. The only positive aspect is that it came with a reduced shank, which made it easier to use with larger drills. However, this small benefit does not justify the high price tag. Overall, I would not waste my money on this product again. Keywords…

Pros
  • High-quality construction for long-lasting use
Cons
  • Reduced shank size limits compatibility with certain drill chucks

Solid Drill - Twist Drill

These drills are needed for drilling duck call logs. This attachment worked well, but I wish the cutting face or flutes were an inch or so longer.

Pros
  • Easier drilling, lower heat and longer drill life
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
