Screwdriver Bits

In this set, of course, there is not a complete set of one bit, but also drills, hexagon, socket heads, retaining rings, bit holder and countersink. But I will tell specifically about the bits. The bits are good, although they are inexpensive. As a budget option is quite excellent. Taiwanese steel, quite durable. Premature wear did not touch him. It is quite suitable for long work.

Reliable, inexpensive

By purchasing a screwdriver, the purchase of various attachments to it remains unchanged - a bit. There are a huge number of manufacturers of these consumables on the market. My choice fell on Taiwanese manufacturer Whirlpower Taiwan PH Philips. These bits have a hexagon on the reverse side, the size of which is 6.3 mm. The slot forged with small notches, due to which the self-tapping screw is better held, for all the time I have never had a bit pop out of the self-tapping screw during operation. Bits are magnetized, they last for a long time, about once every 300 twists. Their length is different, starting from 25 mm and ending with 250 mm.

For me, of the democratic options, these bits are probably the best, of course there are better ones, for example, Magna and Vikh, but the cost is much more there. So, from myself I can safely recommend them as an affordable option, with normal quality.

Cost and quality

There are better options, but more expensive.

We have been arguing for a long time in our team which curly bits are the best for a screwdriver. As always, a box of beer was at stake. Quite by the way, our supplier of the object came with purchases from the construction base, told him about our dispute, he decided to take the same part (likes beer) and “gifted” us with such bits of Bosch P2 Titanium Power, Bosch P2 Ribbed Tip, Kobalt SpeedFit. They decided to conduct testing on the maximum number of screwed-in screws with the same screwdrivers. Here is the result:

Bosch P2 Titanium Power, this titanium-coated bit withstood only 40 handed screws, although at least 3,000 were written on the box.

Her brother Bosch P2 Ribbed Tip turned out to be much more “insistent” and was able to “defeat” as many as 370 self-tapping screws, after which the flanges of the bit were bent down.

Kobalt SpeedFit mastered 230 self-tapping screws, after which the head of the bit completely curled.

Kobalt SpeedFit and Bosch P2 Ribbed Tip performed well.

brand Bosch P2 Titanium Power was a wimp.

I have been working as a decorator for several years now, by the nature of my specialty, I have to work a lot with a screwdriver. For all this time, a huge amount has passed a bit through my screwdriver. I'll start with the positive points:

- Bits from DeWALT PH2 Extreme DT7349, each pack contains 20 pieces, the cost of the entire package is 570 p. Honestly, these are my favorite “not killed” magnetized bits, the impact resistance of which is above all praise. Strength of steel data bits is simply enough to flare the head of any self-tapping screw, and on the bit itself after these executions there is no scratch.

- The Bosch P2 bits are no worse than the bits from the DeWALT PH2 Extreme DT7349. The quality of steel was at a fairly high level, for 1.5 years rather harsh conditions, on the bit there were no "lapped" Faces. For which I thank the manufacturer (supposedly USA is written on the box)

Well, a little negative:
- short bits of Metabo (price 60 rubles per package). There are 2 pieces in the package, which were killed in an uneven battle when the screws were twisted into a regular tree, the faces “licked into clean”. It feels like they are made of plastic.
