Product Information

Full details

The DeWALT Extreme 2 Metal Drill Bit Set is designed for professional contractors and serious DIY enthusiasts who require precision and durability when drilling through various metals. Its standout feature is the innovative tip design that starts on contact, which minimizes wandering and ensures clean hole entry, though users should be mindful that these bits are optimized specifically for metal and may show faster wear if used exclusively on masonry or concrete.

FAQs

Can these bits be used with an impact driver?

While the no-spin shank helps, these are designed for drill drivers. Using them in high-torque impact drivers may lead to premature bit breakage.

What is the smallest and largest size included?

The set includes a range from 1mm at the smallest to 13mm at the largest.

Are these suitable for wood or plastic?

Yes, they perform exceptionally well in wood and plastic, though they are specifically engineered for the higher resistance of metal.

How do I identify the size if the marking wears off?

The markings are located above the shank to minimize wear, but you can use a caliper or a drill gauge plate to verify the diameter.

Can I use these on stainless steel?

Yes, but ensure you use slow speeds and consistent pressure with cutting oil to avoid work-hardening the metal.

Troubleshooting

Bit slipping in the chuck

Ensure the no-spin shank is fully inserted and the chuck is tightened firmly; verify the chuck jaws are not worn.

Bit overheating/burning

Reduce your drilling speed and apply a high-quality cutting lubricant to keep the bit cool.

Holes are not clean/burred

Check if the bit is dull; if so, replace with a fresh bit from the set or resharpen at the correct angle.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Precision starting tip reduces bit walk
  • Tapered web design offers high break resistance
  • No-spin shank design enhances chuck security
  • Wide range of sizes (1mm to 13mm) for diverse projects
  • Durable construction ensures a long service life

Cons

  • Designed primarily for metal, less effective on stone or masonry
  • Requires careful speed management to maintain bit sharpness
  • Case storage may feel bulky for mobile tool belts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These bits are compatible with all standard 3-jaw drill chucks, including both corded and cordless drills. To maintain the life of the set:

  1. Always clean debris from the bits after use.
  2. Store them in the provided case to prevent edge dulling against other metal tools.
  3. Keep your drill speed moderate when engaging thicker materials.
  4. Avoid applying excessive side pressure, which can snap the smaller diameter bits.
