DEWALT Drill Bit Set Review

The DEWALT DWA1269 29pc Pilot Point Industrial Cobalt Alloy Steel Drill Bit Set is a set of drill bits designed to work on hard metals like stainless steel, angle iron, I-Beams, and more. They feature a pilot point and split tip design that starts on contact and eliminates bit walking for more control. The set includes a range of sizes from 1/16" to 31/64". Each bit is made from cobalt alloy steel that offers maximum speed and life. The bits are also stamped with their size for easy identification. Additionally, the set comes with a metal index for organization and convenience.

In terms of performance, users report that these drill bits work well on hard metals and can cut through them with ease. They're also sharp and have remained so after extended use. The pilot point and split tip design ensures that the bits start on contact, which also saves time and makes them easier to control. The metal index is also well-liked for keeping the bits organized.

However, the case that comes with the set is a common complaint among users. It's not designed very well and the bits can fall out or roll around inside. Some users have opted to purchase a separate index for better organization. Additionally, the price may be a bit steep for some users, but most agree that the quality of the bits is worth it.
