Thread: drill and driver bits

For the smaller sizes we generally use Suttons,packs of 10 or 20.Mainly 1/8,5/32,3/16,1/4",some double ended.
Larger just buy whatever brand, huge price differences though.
I dont know if the more expensive brand actually stays sharp longer?

What does make them last a lot longer,when drilling steel,or stainless steel is cutting compound.

I bought a 400mm 1/2" the other day,one brand was half the price of the other.
I grabbed the cheaper one as no doubt it will vanish before it gets worn out....

We generally get them at either either Trade Tools,Tool city,or Bunnings.

Majority of the drill bits I buy from bunnings don't last long enough for me to lose them, I also have that losing tools disease beware its contagious. Ill vote for the p&n tech bit I've broken plenty of the Irwin tech bits. The p&n last me longer.
