Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

These self centering bits are a life saver. They drill and spin perfectly straight. Particularly useful when drilling 3 feet of piano-style hinges into plywood.

Works really well. Don't hesitate. Saved me from replacing s 100+ year old mixing chamber.



Cons

Self centering barrel is not all that great. Snapped off with no pressure on it, on the return after drilling the hole. Better off with a montana self centering bit, or even harbor freight.

Tool looks like random very cheap product without no name, not even * or made in china stamped on it. Inferior manufacturing and inferior materials. The 1/8 bit came bent - ugh!

These center bits work great in shelf brackets as long as the hole in the bracket is slightly tapered so the shaft fits inside ...  Read More

Price


At the price, i'll take perfect every time.


So far; no issues and good value for cost.


(at twice the price, i'd take perfect every time too.

Competitiveness


It feels like the drill bit gets caught up on the sleeve on occasion but i don't have other brands to compare it to.


There many different types out there that cost more, but the cost is the only difference.

    I didn’t buy for hinge installation


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    They’re ok but not precise enough to consistently locate holes exactly in the center


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Probably good enough for most hinge installations

    Can never seem to get holes centered in the middle of an opening
