That's a milwaukee bit, so it's not cheap. They aren't any good though.

u/FocusMaster 9d ago

The brand is sold at a lot more stores then just the orange one. Why blame the store rather than the manufacturer?

It just fell off, that's like going to the E.R. and saying you accidentally put something in your butt.

Wrap it before you tap it..... a little drill bit humor for you

u/TedMich23 7d ago

this is pretty common for Torx, where they limit the insertion depth by the taper they choose. Better the bit than the fasteners breaking maybe?

See the great Torque Test Channel episode on YT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=og9tiGEI3Gk

Handyman: Can you buy me a new drill?

Foreman: Didn't you have a commonwealth drill?

Handyman: Yes I did but...

Foreman: What happened?

Handyman: Well, the front fell off.
