Milwaukee makes some excellent tools
and their bit sets are no slouch either. Getting a hold of a contractor pack of
81 bits for under $20 is a find that no serious cordless drill-toting tool guy
should pass up. You get 19 titanium-coated drill bits and a whole suite of
Philips, flat, Torx and nut driving bits to make you equipped for just about
any job – or replenish your worn out bits with some new, durable replacements.
We’re big fans of titanium-coated drill bits. They
tend to work longer if not abused, and they resist rusting and lower the heat
generated through a slightly lower coefficient of friction. The included 20 pc
assortment puck with magnetic case is a nice touch. It comes with a magnetic
drive guide with retracting sleeve to reduce fastener slipping and wobble. This
works well with smaller screws and in general it’s a good addition to any bit
set. Both the drive guide and up to 21 bits fit into the puck, so it’s
convenient to toss into any tool bag when you’re heading to the job site. The
case is magnetic, so you can keep one slapped up against a tool chest when
you’re working out of your garage or home.
Tech Note: S2 steel, which is what is used in these bits, is hard steel that is also
less ductile, more costly, and far more prone to shattering than some other
steel bits. This means that the tip will resist deforming, and may instead
break or shear over time.
This is a great all around bit set
and if you just picked up a quality cordless drill/driver then you can do
little better than to complement it with a nice starter set like this. If you
find that your bits are getting trashed and you could use a good assortment of
replacements, this set delivers with a nice case, magnetic puck and two
magnetic drive guides. It’s hard to pass this up at this price and Milwaukee
makes a set that is good enough for the novice as well as the professional.
