DEWALT Drill Bit Set, 3-Flats Shank,14-Piece, 135 Degree Split Point, for Plastic, Wood and Metal (DWA1184)

I've bought the Dewalt banded kits a few times. Usually it's because I was at work ,bits were at home - fast forward there's two partial boxes of Dewalt bits. Excluding the fine bits these go out one of three ways: 1) They get left or lost. The quarter inch one is usually run to death and replaced. (That's a win, win.) The last thing that happns is the drill bits in middle of the night and run away. I run through a ton of specific sizes - especially when I have to use the really fine bits. If I slow down, or better use a placement jig ,they do great for littl tiny bits that regardless of brand if used wrong a 20v drill rips them in half. If I just used it around the house I might only need one or two new individual bits. Between leads and managers we all know what's going to break fast and I stock spares 3/8" and down we have bulk baggies, same with driver heads that we burn through. Dewalt sells those in a tic tack like box except full of #2 or #1 Phillips, or in at least 3 lenghths of telco screw drive. Here's the diffference if you haven't seen a new one recently - the box seams better made which you wouldn't think would be my main comment. the smaller bits up to 1/4 are what we use the most of. The upper end of any drill set like these in our area get used less. he main time I use a 1/4 or up is if I have to install a new backer board to add more blocks or tear out and replace it. Then the toggle bolt hole is always above a quarter. (The like 2 times a decade I do that any more.) I get decent value out of the bits overtime but as I collapsed the scraps of drill sets from May past, the little dewalt boxes are really useful. The one's a got a couple of years ago weren't as good. During this trip I pulled our one bit, matchd it to the toggle bolts and drilled the our holes needed to put up another 2x2 plywood squre to mount some more stuff related to a new circuit that drops tomorrow. I have a few Dewalt bits I'be been using since at least 2000. I don't use them alot but any time we add a floor and have to make bigger holes, or need a flex bit that's around 36" long - not one of those things have broken. Even when I got them in the late 90's or by '01 - I never bought them again because I'm still using them. On top of that the sharp surfaces are still ... sharp enough to cut your fingers if you didn't put it back in the twisty case that protects the cutting side. There regular bits hold up where I'd expect, the smaller ones break about where I'd expect it about 2 seconds after I know I'm crooked about getting ready to snap it. I have but one complaint. If I duck into an electrical supply, and hoestly the plumbing ones usually have them too, you can find bags of 10-20 of the stuff that breaks or wears out fast - prety much 1/4" and down (the finer the faster you break it), as well as common screw head tips. I've got no issue with their longevity, lots of us end up have to use those at angles I'm pretty sure would make in instructor at the corps of engineers wince. I used to wait until they got really bad but it cost me more time and money and more than once ended up leaving a blemish that I knew was there. The only way I can quantify it is if I had a pack of indexed bits someone grabbed from Harbor Freight, the last time I tried them they did seem to either dull pretty fast or break fast. (Even though a 1/4 is on the line of easy to break / might last - I have't broken a Dewalt one in at least 3 years. I dulled or had the others break (there's other brands way worse than discount tools at Harbor Freight, ) I always wondered why they didn't have a subscription service or a reup service like you can get with snap on but doesn't require a kidney and second mortgage to join. I know a bunch of guys that way out spend me or anyone on the Telco/Data/or IT side. That said, since the battery change over I'm guessing I'm some were around the price of a Sonata nicely equipped. I can't recall buying something from dewalt and being instantly disappointed .The one and only time I got a defective tool at the start I was still in the lot outside our distributer and the rep din't ask for paper, apologized and handed me another full box, (Unlike the big box store f you catch them at a supply house doing a promo you can score extra stuf...) The only thing they don't make that I'd buy on the spot if they did would be a power electronics screwdriver. I have manuals, it unless I'm really hard up I don't crack laptops to fix them, since many things from a cost/benefit perspective it's easier to grab one off the shelf, pull the hard drive and recycle the rest. The two brands I saw people use were very cheaply made, the bits seemed soft (I'm talking like a phillips or torx 0 or smaller, and the only place I run into them is in computers or network gear.) i only tend to buy outside of Dewalt for some specialty bits they and the other tool makers don't make, min are 20 and counting now and they are pretty much good. In that twenty years I didn't need to refile the edge until right after COVID started and the weird stuff we spend alot on in case we have to try to fix something if we can't replace it fast enough. (We used to actually really reapir alot of that but at this point the hours donw + the cost of staff adn specialty tooling mandatory to solder that small - I could chuck 10 laptops twice a year in the ocean and it costs less) KPI's - all staff, using either company, or personal tools uiformaly use Dewalt, we still have the old batteries around for some things we don't use much. The bits sold by dewalt either exceed or go for a record as on of the more expensive bits I bought at our supplier was purchased in '99 or '00 and it is nearly perfect. Since the second batteries rolled out we've lost nothing due to wearing out or failure, even stuff that is used day in and day out enough to be on the end of their second battery replacement or in their third. (This is both a battery issue and specifically a Lithium issue. It's not unique to them or even involve them as I'm willing to bet the actual "cells" of the battery are Panasonic, just like many hybrids globally. Even when we monitor the recommended switch out schedule these things are testing as good - burning out closer to 9+ months after anticipated. ) On the bits themselves - I have broken tons of the tiny ones over the years. (made by everyone, not just Dewalt) One of my main cable pullers, a shift lead when they reported to me in the data center did have more break than normal, I called the number- it surprised me when they called back. They sent him a better set andonly wanted the actual bits left back and broken pieces we could find. If a company is willing to back a sliver of metal and make it right when it's a grey area (honestly my first though is alwasy I or they were distracted just long enough to gun the trigger and snap it.) With the exception of having to buy a specialty bit that Dewalt doesn't make, or the store doesn't have on the shelf, I've been impressed - especially when it came to bits that you hope you only buy once. The only bits I move down the isle for are specialty masonry bits, SDS chisel bits (sometimes those are Dewalt, and when they aren't - at least I bought their SDS hammer.) The weirdest one's that were bought before they sold any like it are some strage bits used in line purlls to drill through studs or the top / bottom plate with limited visibility. Should they ever wear out then it is either new Dewalt bt time or I'll be retired on a beach in Australlia or someplace else with warm water Almost forgot, When we work with a variety of anchors for reinforced concrete Generally we buy the exact recomended brand and bit for each anchor type - has noting to do with efficacy or not trusting theirs. f something goes wrong no one can question buying from another third party. (I set the masonry anchors that just look like a colored strange screw myself, using a P2 or T2 bit in a impact driver. (If it needs a pilot the drill is dewalt - the bit is whomever made the anchor. (I jsut pushed the "I believe that explanation button" and moved on. Some legal risk... L&I conversations frequently drive a knee jerk reaction that can cause things to be worse. ) Dewalt and Kein have always backed thier products. They've replaced things they didn't need to as a good will gesture. The DeWalt guys were always very helpful. (I also like that bright yellow on bit cases and gear - I can tell if we might of left stuff.

I needed a new set of drill bits for projects around the house, and these have been a great purchase. As a woman who doesn’t use power tools every day, I wanted something that was easy to use without spending a fortune. These fit my drill perfectly, stayed secure while I was working, and made the job much easier. One of my favorite things is the storage case. Everything has its own spot, so it’s easy to find the right size and put it back when I’m done. The set isn’t heavy, which makes it easy to carry around with my other tools. The bits feel durable and well made, and they’ve had plenty of power to drill through the materials I’ve used them on. I like that they’re versatile enough for different projects around the house, and they’ve stayed stable without slipping while I was drilling. Overall, I think the quality is excellent for the price, and I’d definitely buy this set again.

I’ve gone through my fair share of cheap drill bit sets that dull after three holes or snap the moment you hit a knot in the wood, but this DEWALT set is a total game-changer. I bought these for a deck repair project, and the difference in quality is night and day. The first thing I noticed was the 3-Flats Shank. If you’ve ever had a bit spin and slip inside your drill chuck while you’re trying to power through something tough, you know how frustrating that is. These bits lock in tight and don't budge, which gives you a lot more confidence and control. The versatility is where they really shine. I’ve used them on pressure-treated lumber, PVC piping, and even some light metal sheeting, and they’ve stayed remarkably sharp through it all. The 135-degree split point is also a huge plus—it starts drilling on contact without "walking" across the surface, so I didn't even have to use a center punch for most of my pilot holes. What I loved: No slipping: The flat shank design is a simple but brilliant touch. Durability: Even after a weekend of heavy use, they still look and perform like they're brand new. Storage: The case is sturdy and actually keeps the bits organized (unlike those flimsy plastic ones that fall apart). If you’re a DIYer or even a pro looking for a reliable "daily driver" set, these are worth every penny. It’s one of those rare tools where you actually get exactly what you paid for. Highly recommended!

It’s a good set for the money. I’ve used several in wood and metal and while it likes wood better it works on metal. Kinda slow and maybe dulls but gets the job done. I’ve had all kinds of bits from everyone and these are good and cheap enough not to care too much

Good quality and value

I recently added the DEWALT 14‑piece drill bit set to my toolkit, and it’s been putting in the work. The split‑point tips drill cleanly without walking, making it easy to start holes in plastic, wood, and metal—all without a pilot drill. Made from high‑speed steel with a durable black-and-gold coating and a tapered web design, these bits feel tough and resist breakage like a pro‑grade set. For how affordable this is, this set tackled everything from drilling pilot holes in wood and drywall to puncturing sheet metal with ease. ✅ Pros: - Sharp split point prevents walking - Cuts cleanly through wood, plastic, and metal - Durable black & gold finish resists wear - 3-flat shanks prevent slippage in drill chucks - Comes in a compact, organized case Great value for a DEWALT-quality set ⚠️ Cons: - Not designed for masonry or heavy-duty concrete work - Smaller bits can snap under heavy pressure (as expected with any brand) Overall, it’s sharp, reliable, and a perfect balance of quality and price. If you're looking for a compact, versatile drill bit set for most home and workshop tasks, this one delivers—DEWALT reliability with premium features at a great value.

Great for the price and work wonderfully

These DEWALT drill bits performed much better than I expected. I used to go through cheaper bits pretty quickly — they would overheat, slip, or go dull after just a few uses. After switching to DEWALT, the difference was obvious. The cutting is cleaner, drilling feels more stable, and they handle harder materials like metal and hardwood without struggling. I also like the storage case — it keeps everything organized and easy to grab when working on projects. After using them a few times, it’s easy to see why so many professionals trust DEWALT. Solid durability and consistent performance make a real difference.

Kaliteli ürün, ahşap kullanımlarında kayma olmaması için biraz dikkatli olmak gerek. Sadece ahşap kullanıma özel uçlardaki gibi ucunda iğnemsi sabitlemeye yarayan çıkıntı yok.

Pas beaucoup utilisés mais pour le peu, excellents forets.

Excelente en cuestión de calidad y precio.

I had it for less than a minute on concrete construction (wall) and it has started to melt, which means it is not safe for all purposes, I had to replace it with my old 'Bosch' which I found it very satisfying. For an honest opinion don't waste your money on this.
