    Right tool for the job
    Served it's purpose for what I was doing. Quality of the bit is excellent. Needed to drill 1/2 inch holes in pressure treated 4x4's to secure with rebar for landscaping. Made easy work of it.

    Sharp, straight and very well made. We used it to drill holes for thru bolts to hold two crossbeams together on two 4" posts. The gantry was used to flip our boat. Highly recommended.

    Tough Bit!
    Bought this to drill 5/16 bolt holes in Pole Barn timbers 4x6 & 4x4's often stacked together. The bit powered through the treated posts like a hot knife through butter. The sharpness of the bit is excellent and unaffected by more than a hundred holes. Good buy!

    Very good, but would have been better if it had a proper grip at the end that goes in the drill, apart from that it was good.Bu

    Drill bit worked. Delivery was a big issue due to the fact that when I checked on the computer on delivery it stated that they had attempted delivery at 11:20 and 11:23 no one at home. We were home and it took quit a few calls before I finally got to speak to a manager and was told it would be the next day before it could be delivered. I asked if the truck was coming back to the store to unload and that she could send them back. Upon further checking she stated the items had not been picked up that she almost fell over it when she went to check. I advised her I had scheduled and I wanted my merchandise to be delivered. She stated that she would try and get it delivered which she did at 4PM that afternoon. I don't appreciate false information being stated on paper holding work in reference to attempts made that morning and the excessive time I spent on the phone trying to get someone to answer and provide HELP....

    Very sharp and strong for the project we needed
    This Twist Drill Bit is a high-quality and durable tool for drilling through a variety of materials. The black and gold coating provides excellent heat resistance and extends the life of the bit. The 3/8 in. size is versatile and the 12 in. length allows for deeper drilling. We used the bit and it stayed sharp and delivers clean holes. Overall, this drill bit is a great for anyone in need of a reliable and long-lasting drilling tool. We used it to go through our outside wall into the garage.
