User questions & answers

Question:	Any way to add a length extension to these
Answer:	These drill bits have a 1/4” Quick-Change shank. They are designed for 1/4” self-lock chucks. If you have one of the gun-type electric screwdrivers with a 1/4” self-lock chuck, these prob would work. Look up the “Lanneret Electric Screwdriver Cordless” on Amazon. This is the type of screwdriver these bits would probably work with. If you need to do a lot of drilling, esp. into diff types of materials, you might be better off buying an elec drill. Most elec drills have torque settings and more powerful motors for drilling, and some come with bits - like the Black+Decker models on Amazon. Good luck!
Question:	Can I use these in a drill that has a 3/8" keyless chuck
Answer:	I suppose you could cut it off but drill bit would be shorter. I like it because I can change quickly between a drill bit and a screwdriver bit.
Question:	How long are these bits
Answer:	It’s drill bits so it should fit most or all drills.
Question:	Do this entire drill set fit into 1/4 Hex drivers
Answer:	Yes, The bits fit a standard 1/4 socket.

User questions & answers

Question:	Do these work well
Answer:	They do. Fast clean hole. Be careful when you break through, can leave a ragged hole.
Question:	The pictires show two different cases. One case has the bits in a single row while the other has them in two rows with a staggered placement
Answer:	The most likely explanation is that the original listing was for one case configuration, and later the listing pictures were updated with new packaging. The number and sizes of the bits are the same. The UPC should be the same since the product itself is the same. The sets I have for sale are in the staggered placement, but there may be others in Amazon's warehouse with the straight across arrangement. I did not personally update the pictures.
Question:	What’s the size range smallest to largest
Answer:	Hi, 1/4-in, 5/16-in, 3/8-in, 7/16-in, 1/2-in, 9/16-in, 5/8-in, 11/16-in, 3/4-in, 13/16-in, 7/8-in, 15/16-in, 1-in, 1-1/8-in, 1-1/4-in, 1-3/8-in, and 1-1/2-in spade bits Thanks.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will these work for drilling a 2" hole thru the back side of a laminate kitchen counter
Answer:	The largest bit in My set is 1-1/2" so that might be an issue also I've never used them on laminate but they should be fine if done at a low speed.
Question:	Is the shank straight, for a chuck, or notched for a collet common to many battery operated hand drills
Answer:	The shank is a smooth round shaft.
Question:	Can I get an extender for this set
Answer:	Warning - these bits are NOT standard 1/4" hex type. They are too narrow. My review has a photo comparing them to standard. For example, they do not fit in a 1/4-Inch Magnetic Drive Guide type extender (typically used for Philips head screw bits). I'm curious if the Bosch DSBE1006 DareDevil 6-Inch Spade Bit Extension will work instead, as it has tightening set screws.
Question:	Are these meant for making holes like for installing a cam lock in a cabinet
Answer:	I use drill bits like these professionally and if it is very important that the exit hole is clean, like in the cabinet lock application, you should: (a). only use a very new, very sharp bit. (b). drill most of the way through and finish the hole from the other side, using the hole made by the pilot as a guide.
