Questions about this item

Does the 118-degree point angle on these 26 drill bits run cooler during extended use?

The 118-degree point angle is a general-purpose geometry; heat depends on cutting speed, feed pressure, lubrication and workpiece material rather than the angle alone.

What chuck size do I need to hold every bit in the 49918 set?

The set contains 26 jobber-length bits spanning standard fractional sizes, so a 1/2-inch capacity drill chuck will accommodate the full range.

Will these bright-finish high-speed steel bits work in the same corded drill I use with older cobalt bits?

Yes, the 118-degree uncoated HSS bits fit any standard three-jaw chuck and can be run at the same speeds you use for cobalt bits, adjusting feed for the material.
