When it comes to step bits, you can't expect any tight tolerances whatsoever. This is especially true if the material thickness is greater than A taper is not required unless you have an inch or so of cutting blade visible.
Although this bit can drill a hole up to 30mm in diameter, I am not certain that it can drill steel hardened to this degree. In order to drill plastic, I used it.
Although it would work, there are a few problems 1) If you go all the way through, your maximum size will be 3 (max size on each drill). 2) If you do not go all the way through, the hole will You can take advantage of the wood drill if you have one. Then this would be a good solution.

I firmly believe in the saying that you get what you pay for, but they were not cheap in this case and I certainly didn't pay for anything I received.

They come in one plastic bag, but didn't seem to be damaged. Drilling with them is aggressive due to the spiral flute. When using a drill without a press, be sure to brace it well. It will want to torque you and pull you There are other reviews that mention that and they don't joke about it. You can cut pretty good holes if you brace yourself well and drill in short bursts, preferably with cutting oil when drilling metals, of course.

You can get about the same price at Harbor Freight. Sheet metal of light gauge is suitable for this product. I'd rather spend 40 minutes doing this than 40 minutes watching A 60 dollar one can be purchased at home depot if you do not need one that is heavy duty. Plus, it fits in with the.
It was delivered on time and the bits work fine. I needed a set of metric step bits, and these appear to be an adequate choice. As I have only used them once, I cannot comment on their durability, but they seem rather sturdy to me.

The parts have been in my possession for the last few weeks. It is one of my favorite things to use every My experience has been that these step bit sets are on par with or even better than some $25 The next time I order, I'll definitely do so.
It is a fantastic idea, however I have tried drilling a thin steel hole I wanted slightly larger over and over again to no avail. Even though I did not expect it to work on metals other than sheet steel, it did not work there.
