      Q:What is the torque rating for the bit? Looking to use it in the Milwaukee 18v lineman impact gun With an adapter
      by|Nov 13, 2022
      1 Answer
      Answer This Question

      A:  1.You need to clarify the tool you are planning to use this with. These bits were designed to be used in a 1/4" hex drive impact driver tool.they are not designed to be used with an impact gun. the will not holdup to the abuse of an regular impact gun. 1/4" Hex Shank. Use in Drills or Impact Drivers ,says nothing about being ok to use these with an impact gun. There is a big difference in torque and power in impact driver vs impact gun.

        Awesome strong bit to do a crank pin.
        I needed a very strong bit to drill a Hellcat engine driveshaft and a balancer/pulley. With a special tool to keep the drill from moving away and enough oil to lubricate and keep temps cool, I was able to drill it within minutes

        When drilling on the first metal strip to make a hole was easy but on second and third holes were not easy. It is for the sunscreen shade to hold.

          Great bits
          These Milwaukee impact bits are my second favorite bits after the Milwaukee cobalt bits. I keep at least two full sets of each at all times. They’ll chew through 1/2” steel all day long. The cobalts cut faster, but I like the quick connect feature for the impact on these.

          1drill bit; so many holes!
          I bought several of these bits, to drill into 1/4” angle iron to install a trailer bed. Based on cheaper brands, I thought I’d need a bunch of them to do the job. I used the 17/64ths bit. The first bit just broke off at hole number 60. Incredible quality to keep making hole after hole. After slogging through using cheapie bits, this is a pleasant relief. Totally worth the money. If you are using a 5/16th self tapping screw the 17/64th bit makes an excellent pilot hole. I’m sold on Milwaukee!

              CORRECTION
              I would like to take back my negative review for 7/64 Milwaukee Cobalt bit . The hole I was trying to drill was at the angle and at a difficult location. The drill bit is excellent. I never seen a bit flex so much and not break. P.S. HD, fix the picture and a title for the review pop up. It does not match the link!
