Excellent product [Posted on 2007-10-13] I've used these bits to drill stainless steel as well as steel I-beams and can find no fault with them. The 1/4" bit powered right through both materials (I used the 1/8" bit to drill pilot holes). I'm glad that I spent the extra money to get these cobalt bits.
Super! [Posted on 2008-01-12] I've learned the hard way that HSS and Titanium Nitride bits don't hold their sharpness well when pushed hard. Cobalt bits like the Milwaukee set are the only way to go if sharpness over time is important to you. The Milwaukee set has the commonly used sizes (fractional sizes) and will work well for years, regardless of their use. I trusted Milwaukee because of their reputation for fine tools and am not disappionted.
Best bit set for the buck [Posted on 2008-02-02] Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R1EVYJ2FUSAR50 Case dimensions and initial quality impressions for
Milwaukee Drill Bits [Posted on 2008-03-29] These are the best drill bits I've ever used. They cut thru metal with ease and stay shape. More than worth the money.
Let's Not Get Carried Away [Posted on 2008-05-14] These are good bits and I applaud Milwaukee for making them in the USA. These may very well be the last Milwaukee bits made in the USA and I would encourage you to get them while you can. These bits probably ARE better than anything readily available considering the sad state of the times. However, I just compared these bits to 10 year old DeWalt bits in drilling through some thin galvanized steel and the results may surprise you. The Cobalt Milwaukee went through easy enough but the 10 year old US made DeWalt -nothing special I assume they are HSS - went through A LOT easier. I was surprised because I had heard so much about how great Cobalt bits were. Can you say a lot of crap? Now, you can't get these Dewalt bits anymore as the current ones are junk from China so that is why I say the Milwaukee's are probably as good as you are going to get but let's not get carried away.
