HSS bit set.

[SEC-Tom]

Any recommendations looking to get a new drill bit set HSS? Nothing too expensive but not cheap rubbish.

I like Bosch drill bits, and for 6mm I buy either the screwfix 10 packs which are cheap and good, or the individual Black and Decker Pirhana drill bits (with a specially shaped tip) which are sometimes pricey depending on where you buy them but very good and fast, they leave a clean drillhole...
For holesaws (I go through a lot of 20mm and 25mm ones) I buy either Ultra Brand (Ultra BI-Hard) or Bahco, I prefer the Bahco if I can they are very good, all holesaws are expensive so its just better to buy one of these two brands than another generic non labelled brand that the shop will still try to charge you the same or more money for....the cheaply made ones that are expensive to buy just fall to bits and the teeth break off after one use on trunking...


I always have a good stock of Bahco holesaws and Hacksaw blades in my bag/box when on site as 99% of companies are too tight to buy any decent holesaws and Hacksaw blades, they buy in crappy ones which are still expensive, then the teeth break off, you go to get another one from the store out of the 6 that were bought for the whole site and find that they have been nicked from the store...and end up left with a holesaw with 3 teeth left on it, has anybody else here been left trying to cut holes in trunking with a duffed up holesaw?? its not very nice....so I always end up using my own just to get the job done...
