👏👏👏👏I’m gonna get me some of those. Last year I bought a set of Warrior step bits to save me some time & $’s they wouldn’t go through 1/4” angle iron, dulled it, got out the next size, even using cutting oil it still dulled. So I went back to using multiple drill bits to get the size of hole I needed. Keep’m coming
I can confirm these bits are the stuff I bought a single 1/4in - 3/4in bit for 25 dollars and for a step bit that goes as large as the one I picked up it was a steal. I managed to drill through some 1/4in angle iron like it was butter and drilled 8 holes like it was nothing now granted I had to go from both sides but just make sure to use some sort of cutting oil and I bet the bits will last a long time.
Been using Hercules bits for a while. They work great. For a lot less price. Plus, if you watch for the coupons, you can get these for as much as 30% off their already very low price.
Anything less than Irwin has gone dull very fast. Cobalt should be a huge improvement and I will definitely try them. Remember to use the right speed though as you use these. If you're not getting any curls coming out then you're doing something wrong. The longer the curls, the closer you are to the perfect speed and pressure needed to drill the hole. cutting oil while drilling into metal is always a good idea.
The Hercules step bits are on par with Dewalts( Really good step bits).The Dewalts are hard to come by because they're almost always sold out in my town.
would you say that buying these at HF is a good TIp? I see that you posted this video on a Tuesday. This is a video, a video about Tools. I feel like there is a potential marketing idea here, alliteration is always fun!
I miss the old hf. They're tools now are close to the same price as the big box stores. When i need a power tool that i will only use once a year, i used to be able to spend 20 bucks instead of 200. Stuff like those bits are a good deal but that list is shrinking.
Probably should have mentioned once you chuck a ¼" hex bit into a drill, it then should generally stay out of an impact. One can easily muck the shank up in the jaws, then becomes a pain in the impact collet. I can't imagine the money wasted over the years had I bought "name brand" step bits 😂
@@A6LegitIt was probably more of concern with cheaper made bits / non impact. And if the drill never binds up the bit should be fine, but I have several that are knarled up from the jaws of a drill.
YO!!!!! ATTENTION........You did a review of the ORIGINAL makita magnetic bit holder (NOT THERE NEW ONE THATS JUST O.K) BUT THE ORIGINAL ONE that's hard to find..... I did purchase one and it was definitely the best I've ever used UNTIL...... Milwaukee just released theres..... it is rubber very Magnetic and it will fit on any shaft of any bit holder because it has a small round whole at both ends to take shape of the bit driver. IT IS THE NEW KING!!!!!
I definitely buy stuff that I least use I save a few bucks I'm still getting the job done there are some stuff if you use everyday I would go with the name brands
@VCGConstruction oh I know, they tried that with 2 other channels I follow "everything money" and "reviewtechusa". It got so bad that reviewtech made a video explaining that if he doesn't make a video about him giving away a prize, it's not him
Why pay more, but I do have to off- gas for few hours after being in the store. I am always suspicious that anything made in China, regardless of the name , is made in the same factories.
damnit OhiO... you know damn well you should be shootin a little oil on them step bits when cuttin the metal. dont make me REVOKE your Great Lakes Midwest Rust Belt Card.
*_I make a video about Step bits and now you make a video about step bits! UNREAL!_*
Gotta be honest, didn't even know you were still on RUclips considering you blocked everyone from your channel last week 🤷
Leave it to TRZ... always stealing VCG's video content ideas
Tool review zone has no shame…. He’d steal a nickel from a Nun!
Ooh juicy
You can buy a lot of things with a nickel

Haven't used that brand, but I appreciate the feedback brother
Ohhhh I got you ST. Thabks for the info brother

On metal I would use some cutting oil.

I have been stocking up on their icon stuff. I’m not a mechanic by trade but mess around with my cars. Icon stuff seem to do the work just fine
I picked the 3 piece set earlier this year at the great harbor freight. Love these videos
Always appreciate the feedback brother man John
Just used some of these over the weekend drilled 25+ holes into some steel pipe. Worked great! Thanks for the video.
The Hercules step bits are on par with Dewalts( Really good step bits).The Dewalts are hard to come by because they're almost always sold out in my town.
Holey cow. Those are great. Definitely stepping up their bit game
Hahaha, possibly the best one yer Dan The Man 😆😆👊

@VCGConstruction I only know 2 scammers...Evil Twin and that Vance guy from Philly
Wish they sold just the big one, I’d give it a shot. I’ve already got the other sizes and don’t use them a lot but need the bigger size.
Harbor freight’s been stepping up the game.👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
HF is my ‘’go to place’’ for tools !
I used them to drill 1” holes through I beams in my shop to run electrical wiring. Don’t panic, I did insert rubber grommets before running wire.
Todd showed that the zip ties are very good. I also started getting stepped drill bits and hercules bits.
I now know what else I'm going to buy the next time I go to Harbor freight
Great video! Definitely going to HF for step bits! I look at those at Lowe’s or HD and say Nah. These prices are much easier to bear!
1:06 Why I shop at HF more often
There building a 3rd store within 30 mins of me I’m happy 😂👌🏽
😆😆👊

HF has some good stuff, great review.
I will analyze!!!

Hmmmm, never really thought of that. I may have to test it out 👊
I've never heard of drill jaws messing up bits

Thx,
Har-buer Freight is my go-to for some types of accessories.
Now, if only I could catch a sale on them, hmmm ?
😮😅😂

Are they better than the Warrior bits, because those are one use, in my opinion?
You left out the fact that in thin materials the hole is clean not rough edged like with a regular bit.

@VCGConstruction question for you, is there a patent for the stacked Lithium battery?
Is plasteek the same as plastik or even plastic? JK, loving your vids.
Hahaha, they are very close 😆👊
Thanks for sharing this video...
I would not use this bit for stainless steel unless you want to start a fire😅
Is this a Took Tip? It IS Tuesday
Yyyeeeaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!

Super handy...for real.

Try some cutting oil, or any damn oil, when running holes in metal
hoobar Fretis.😃
Nice Tuesday tip.
Just the tip😅

I'm sorry I meant to say Hubar fretus
Smeeshed real mass like
You are real nass like Peter!!!!

Love your videos but the pronunciation shtick is getting a bit old. Perhaps you could talk normal?
Then you don't love the videos then 🤔
those bits can last a year or more easily. know electricians that swear by them, especially the one that goes up to 1 3/8
