USA MADE BLACK & GOLD DRILL BIT SET - 29 PIECE
Built for serious shop work, this USA Made 29-Piece Black & Gold Drill Bit Set gives you every fractional size from 1/16" through 1/2" in precise 1/64" increments — all in one professional set. Made from M2 high-speed steel, these bits combine the toughness and cutting performance needed for everyday fabrication, maintenance, repair, and production drilling with a Black & Gold finish designed to help resist wear and corrosion.
Each bit features a 135° split point for faster, more accurate starts with less walking, while sizes 3/16" and larger use three-flat shanks to help resist slipping in the chuck under load. Whether you are drilling steel, aluminum, sheet metal, wood, or other supported materials, this set puts 29 commonly used fractional sizes at your fingertips in a USA-made steel indexing case built for organized, dependable shop use.

Machine Compatibility
This 29-piece set includes straight-shank drill bits ranging from 1/16" through 1/2". Machine compatibility depends on the installed chuck securely gripping the selected bit and on the machine's drilling capacity for the material being worked. Use rotary drilling mode and select the proper speed and feed for the material and bit diameter. Confirm the machine’s drilling capacity for the material and its available speed range; chuck fit alone does not establish suitability for every application.
Compatible examples include:
-
RIKON® 30-212VS Drill Press — supports the full 1/16"–1/2" set
-
WEN® 4214T Drill Press — supports the full 1/16"–1/2" set
-
Grizzly® G7943 Drill Press — supports the full 1/16"–1/2" set
-
Grizzly® G7942 Drill Press — supports the full 1/16"–1/2" set
-
Makita® XFD13Z Drill/Driver — use when the installed chuck securely grips the selected shank
-
Milwaukee® 3403-20 Drill/Driver — use when the installed chuck securely grips the selected shank
-
Milwaukee® 3404-20 Hammer Drill/Driver — use when the installed chuck securely grips the selected shank; select drilling-only mode
-
DEWALT® DCD800B Drill/Driver — use when the installed chuck securely grips the selected shank
-
Bosch® GSR18V-400 Drill/Driver — for supported metal drilling sizes through 3/8"; verify chuck grip for the selected bit
-
Bosch® GSR12V-300 Drill/Driver — for sizes through 3/8"; verify chuck grip for the selected bit
For machines limited to a 3/8" chuck or documented metal-drilling capacity, the larger bits in the set require a machine with greater capacity. Always confirm the installed chuck securely grips the selected shank before use.
Safety Tips
- Wear appropriate eye protection when drilling.
- Secure the workpiece with suitable clamps or a vise before drilling.
- Keep loose clothing, hair, and other items away from rotating parts.
- Use rotary drilling mode and turn off hammer action on hammer drills.
- Match drilling speed and feed pressure to the material and bit diameter.
- Keep the drill aligned with the bit to reduce side loading.
- Clear chips as needed and avoid excessive heat buildup.
- Support sheet metal, wood, and plastic properly to control breakthrough.
- Confirm the chuck securely grips the selected shank before starting.
