Cut large holes with drill presses and portable drills that have a standard-size chuck. The shank on these bits has a smaller diameter than the cutting tip. High-speed steel is good for general purpose drilling in most metals. Also known as Silver and Deming bits.

More wear resistant than high-speed steel, these bits cut large holes with tools that have a standard-size chuck. The shank has a smaller diameter than the cutting tip and fits drill presses and portable drills. Cobalt steel bits last at least twice as long as high-speed steel. They can also run up to 25% faster at higher temperatures without being damaged on hard materials such as nickel. Also known as Silver and Deming bits.

Tough and wear resistant, cobalt steel bits last at least twice as long as high-speed steel. They can also run up to 25% faster at higher temperatures without being damaged on hard materials, such as nickel.

Store two bits of each size. These cabinets have drawers marked with the bit sizes. They can be stacked up to three high.

These rods, also known as drill blanks, have an undersized diameter for machining your own drill bits. They're hardened for increased abrasion and impact resistance. M2 tool steel offers a nice balance of wear resistance and machinability. It has a high molybdenum content, which allows it to maintain sharp cutting edges even at elevated temperatures.

Cut the cleanest, quickest threads in a range of sizes without ever stopping for chips. Made with an oversized shank and hardened high-speed steel, the taps in these sets are built to handle the high torque of impact wrenches for smooth, continuous cutting. The rapid hammering breaks up chips and spiral flutes pull them out of the hole, so you never have to pause and reverse to clear them. They can thread both blind and through holes 15 times faster than by hand. They’re a good choice for threading large holes and working with hard metals.

You’ll need a VersaDrive chuck (sold separately) to install these taps into your impact wrench.
