Top-10

In today’s construction operations, many fasteners have to be twisted and unscrewed. With the help of a power tool, this can be done quickly and easily. But sometimes a worn or broken bit becomes a problem. This happens most often due to the mistakes of the master or due to the use of very powerful screwdrivers and drills. So that work does not stop due to poor-quality equipment, you should have a set of bits with you. With their help, you can cope with any screws, screws or self-tapping screws.

Best Mid-Segment Bit Sets

Bosch 2607017164 (43 pcs.)

Bosch 2607017164 (43 pcs.)

In recent years, the Bosch name has become synonymous with quality. Even the fact that most of the products are produced in China does not interfere with this. The Bosch 2607017164 bit set is just one of these, but they are very popular and respected among domestic users.

The box includes 43 items:

• six bits 75 mm long;
• 32 standard bits for a length of 25 millimeters;
• several magnetic holders (universal and quick-change).

Among the main qualities of the set, one can single out a really strong material, marked according to a certain type, a convenient rubberized case and magnetic holders, which cause some resonance among the owners. In some assemblies, these holders are weak and do not provide proper fixing of the bits, while others fix the bits tightly. Be that as it may, the kit fully pays for the costs and guarantees proper operation over a long period of time.

KRAFTOOL 26154-H42 (42 pcs.)

KRAFTOOL 26154-H42 (42 pcs.)

All items contained in it are made of chrome-vanadium alloy, which has high strength indicators, as well as an optimal balance in the «hardness — ductility» pair.

The decision of manufacturers to attribute the case to the number of items contained does not seem entirely correct, so many buyers have a completely natural dissonance. The fact is that, by definition, the set contains 42 items, although in fact there are 41 of them. A small oversight in the manufacturer’s camp (the product is made in China) quite unexpectedly became the main problem. If you look at the kit from the standpoint of quality, then it will not cause any particular complaints. I am very pleased with the presence in it of an adapter from a standard shank size (1/4 inch) to a square 3/8 inch. All in all, this is a worthy purchase candidate, despite the presence of such an obvious oversight.

BISON (31 pcs.)

BISON (31 pcs.)

The presented set of one-sided BISON bits is designed for dismantling and mounting of threaded fasteners using a screwdriver. The package includes an adapter and 31 bits 25 mm long. Tooling is made of durable chrome molybdenum steel, thanks to which it is designed for the longest service life even under heavy loads. This set is designed taking into account the need to work in places with limited access, for which the working surface of the «sting» has a special sharpening. Additional ergonomics in the process of using and changing equipment is provided by a magnetized tip.

Due to the presence of small notches on the bits, the risk of equipment slipping from the fastener is minimized, which prevents damage to it. This set comes in a plastic case for easy storage and transportation.

The best premium bit sets

Milwaukee Shockwave (56 pcs.)

Milwaukee Shockwave (56 pcs.)

The main difference between this set and others lies in the geometry of the working part of the nozzles. Each individual bit is designed in accordance with the proprietary Shock Zone technology, which prevents the working part from breaking due to excess pressure. High internal elasticity and low susceptibility to impact loads are ensured by the aspect of the unique shape and heat treatment, prudently incorporated into the technology complex. In general, the set has no serious flaws and is able to last for many years, as evidenced by user reviews.

Metabo 626704000 (71 pcs.)

Metabo 626704000 (71 pcs.)

Real aesthetics for any master, attractiveness in every single element. Only by breaking into the notorious advertising lyrics can one adequately describe this unique set of bits from another German company. Metabo 626704000 is a combination of stunning appearance and equally outstanding performance, fine-tuning a standard chromium and vanadium alloy to optimal mechanical performance.

Each bit, depending on the type of slot, has its own color marking, which makes it possible to change the equipment on the screwdriver automatically after a short getting used to the set. To the great delight of users, the manufacturers from Metabo prudently added bits with an elongated base (75 mm) to the kit, since it is often very difficult to work with standard 25 mm. The case also does not fail: compact and lightweight, it does not contain anything extra and takes up little space on the tool shelf. In the aggregate of all the listed advantages, this set is worthy of the highest praise, even despite not the lowest cost.

JONNESWAY S29H4135S (35 pcs.)

JONNESWAY S29H4135S (35 pcs.)

JONNESWAY, a professional tool manufacturer, presents the S29H4135S screwdriver bit insert set, which will be the best choice for both household tasks and small production or repair shops. Users note the exceptional quality and versatility of this set, which, moreover, demonstrates increased resistance to maximum loads.

The package contains 35 items, including 28 bits with a 10 mm shank, 4 inserts with a length of 14 mm and 3 adapters 3/8 and ½ inches, which do not lose their original characteristics throughout the entire operational period. The presented set is completed in a metal case that promotes more comfortable process of transportation and storage.

Best Bit Sets: Minicases

Bosch X-Pro 2607017037 (25 pcs.)

Bosch X-Pro 2607017037 (25 pcs.)

Another representative of the Bosch company is an image of a purely working set without pretensions for aesthetics and other surroundings. Very practical, compact yet reliable, this set has also received a lot of feedback from consumers, who equally flattered the high quality of the bit components.

In addition to the standard set of short 25mm bits, the X-Pro 2607017037 set includes elongated 50mm bits, for which I especially want to thank Bosch. The situation with the magnetic holder came out almost identical to Ryobi, but here it inspires much more confidence. But the main advantage of the kit lies in the design of the case. X-Pro 2607017037 is equipped with inclined clips and, instead of frantically taking out each individual item from a static position, you just need to take any of them with a slight movement of your hand, and after use, just put it back. It is for consumer orientation that this set wins the first line of the rating in the minicase category.

Metabo 630454000 (20 pcs.)

Metabo 630454000 (20 pcs.)

The smallest and, in combination, the most expensive set of screwdriver bits is in third place in the ranking of the best. The Metabo 630454000 case contains only 19 bits and a standard magnetic nozzle, but the amount is more than offset by the highest quality. And the point here is not only in the steel used: structurally, the body of the bit has an increased cross section, which creates additional resistance to the resulting torque.

Actually, this set no longer contains any features: the main points are associated with a small compact case, clips (holders for bits) of which can be removed, as well as an increased margin of safety of the nozzles themselves, the moderate operation of which will take an enormous amount of time.

Ryobi 5132002257 (40 pcs.)

Ryobi 5132002257 (40 pcs.)

A set of bits from Ryobi is very difficult to attribute to minicases for one simple reason — the dimensions of this set are closely matched to the standard dimensions of full-fledged sets. However, this does not detract from the high quality of the equipment contained in it.

As in many other sets, the main bet in Ryobi 5132002257 is made on duplication of the most common bits, and in the length variant of both 25 and 50 millimeters. All nozzles are made of high-strength tool steel, and, to everyone’s surprise, despite not the highest cost, they perfectly withstand workloads. The main claims relate to the design of the magnetic holder. If in competitive models this item is made in the form of a massive sleeve with a magnetic base recessed into it, then here its design does not inspire much confidence, representing, in fact, a long sleeve pressed onto a hexagonal shank. But when you see the cost, you simply turn a blind eye to this — the set looks very attractive, especially when compared with the other assortment.
