Price


At this price point, they way exceeded my expectations.


Great price and the bits are very sharp.


I paid a local guy $150 to do it last time.


Figured i'd give it a shot with this $10 bit and a drill press i bought used for $50.

Shipping

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    No cleanup required in that case just a look and a blast of compressed air to make sure no foreign material is left to get sucked into the pickup

    Dont have to drill pilot hole


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I really only bought these to drill holes in flue pipes for combustion


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Combined with the use of a good cutting fluid and a slow drilling speed 250 rpm they steadily cut away the metal and resulted in very nicely cut holes


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Because of the design of the bit it even chamfered the edges of the holes nicely by just lowering the bit a tiny bit deeper to the next step up cutting size


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Because the thickness of the steel was halfinch i had to flip the bar to drill from the backside to finish each hole as the depth of the 3434 cutting 34step34 is less than 1234

    I havent tried the more expensive brand name bits but i cant imagine they cut much bettercertainly not four times better to justify their cost
