    The hardest and most wear-resistant bits, the flutes clear chips and improve coolant flow. They prevent clogs and dissipate heat that can damage the bit and the hole. Carbide bits stay sharp at high temperatures and faster speeds for the best performance on hard and difficult-to-machine materials. They last 10 to 20 times longer than cobalt steel. Carbide can be brittle, however, so these bits require a rigid machine tool holder to prevent breakage and should not be used in hand drilling applications.
    Jobbers' Length—These bits have the balance of rigidity and length needed for most applications.
    Titanium Nitride (TiN) Coated—Drill at higher speeds and last longer than uncoated bits, especially on materials like hardened steel, iron, and stainless steel.
    Uncoated—Excellent for a range of materials but won't last as long as coated bits.

    Drill Taps

    Spiral Flute

    Drill holes and cut threads without switching tools. Made of high-speed steel, these taps are for use on most metal and plastic. The square shank is compatible with tap holders for drill presses and milling machines. All have a plug chamfer with 3-5 chamfered cutting threads, so they're suitable for start-to-finish tapping.
    Uncoated High-Speed Steel—Uncoated taps are strong enough for most tapping jobs but have the shortest tool life.
    Titanium Nitride (TiN)-Coated High-Speed Steel—Titanium Nitride (TiN) coated taps resist heat and wear better than uncoated taps, letting them last up to twice as long.
    Spiral Flute—Taps with spiral flutes keep chips clear by drawing them back toward the tap and out of the hole.

    Quick-Change Hex Shank Drill Taps for Drills and Screwdrivers

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Drill Taps. Quick-Change Hex Shank Drill Taps for Drills and Screwdrivers.
    Save time when you need to change drill taps frequently. The grooved shank snaps directly into drills, power screwdrivers, and other tools that accept a 1/4" hex shank. However, they’re not rated for impact drivers. With a drill bit point to drive into the workpiece, these taps can drill and tap holes in a single step. They’re made of high-speed steel and are for use on most metal and plastic.
    Their spiral flutes keep chips clear by drawing them back toward the tap and out of the hole. All have a plug chamfer with 3-5 chamfered cutting threads, so they’re suitable for start-to-finish tapping.
    Titanium Nitride (TiN)-Coated High-Speed Steel—Titanium Nitride (TiN) coated taps resist heat and wear better than uncoated taps, letting them last up to twice as long.

    Convert your socket into a flex socket to access fasteners from an angle. Also known as universal joints.
    The finish on these adapters resists corrosion.
    Chrome-Plated Steel—Chrome-plated steel adapters have a mirror-like finish and are easy to clean.
    Black-Oxide Steel—Black-oxide steel adapters are easy to grip when dirty or wet. They need to be oiled periodically to maintain their corrosion resistance.
