The DeWalt DW1169 14-piece Pilot Point Twist Drill Bit Assortment comes with pilot point tips for starts on contact that result in clean, accurate holes. These bits are designed to reduce lock-up on breakthrough and also feature a no-spin shank that eliminates the frustration of bit spinning in the chuck. Other features include a tapered web for greater durability and reduced breaking, and size markings are located above the shank to prevent wearing away. This kit comes with two 1/16-inch, one 5/64-inch, one 3/32-inch, one 7/64-inch, two 1/8-inch, one 9/64-inch, and one 5/32-inch split point drill bits and one 3/16-inch, one 7/32-inch, one 1/4-inch, one 5/16-inch and one 3/8-inch pilot point drill bits, and a secure carrying case.

be careful

You have to be very careful with these bits. When they break through to the other side of the material being drilled they will screw themselves right down to the chuck and if your hand is near any part of the piece being drilled you can get your fingers smashed. I thought this was a quirk in my first set but when many of them broke I bought a second set. Same problem. They screw themselves right through the material being drilled instantly without completing the hole. They are very difficult to hold back and prevent this from happening.

Highly recommend

I bought these to replace some broken/damaged bits (2) from my larger 64pc set. These are DEWALT - need I say more.
I now have a smaller set that fits in the drill box to go with me on smaller projects around the house.

Sometimes they drill too fast !

These bits are great, but watch it, sometimes they'll drill farther than you need because they are sharp.
