So - looks as if you have to get special drill bits? You can't just use regular bits in this chuck?

No, you will need special drill bits for this attachment. 1/4 inch hex drive

it is not a chuck, it takes 1/4" hex. To drill, you need that type of bit. It is a really well made and thought out item.

this is one of those "latch type" that requires the latch bits. They snap in....no screw type chuck. Don't use this very often but when I need it .....!

yes anything with standard chuck should work if the chuck is 3/8 some larger bits might not fit!1/2 bits probably wont fit!

The "SDS" drills have a unique chuck and will only work with SDS bits. These bits will not work in a conventional chuck.

If you bought a Black & Decker LDX112C 12-Volt drill. then you have a keyless chuck. I would definitely buy hex shank drill bits. otherwise the drill bits tend to spin in the chuck. you just can't get the keyless chuck tight enough.

I fhave a standard cordless drill. It just fits in the chuck and I tighten it and off I go. As I recall you should only go in the clockwise/tighten direction. Its easy. And it works very well.

Technically yes, drill bits with hex ends are available, that's all you can use. The speed however of the driver is pretty slow for drilling

They need to be "hex" shanks on the ends that fit into the chuck. Regular drill bits won't work. Makita makes a nice bit set for that tool

Yes, but so can any but the worst of cordless drills. As Kendal mentioned you either want a special bit, and/OR to fasten the work down and be careful.

You cannot use this as a drill, it does not have a built in chuck you can adjust for different bit sized and does not turn fast enough.

You could use it in a drill, but why would you want to? it would like having two chucks on one drill.

I can't answer that question , but don't buy the drill. The chuck doesn't grab the bit. I am a builder and know my drills.

There are special drill bits with "ridges" on the base that make a quick fit that are so.......much quicker and dependable than the regular style that you have to tighten with the chuck and still sometimes slip. I bought a set years ago when I got the first one and they are still working (they came in a small case). This will not replace the heavy duty drill for big jobs needing bigger bits, but is great for small jobs. It also gets into spaces that a big drill won't fit,

Must use the 1/4 inch hex head. I bought a set of hex drill bits and they work great. Took a little bit of getting used to as the driver does not bite down like a regular chuck would. But with the quick release right in front of your index finger the hex option is REALLY sweet!

I've only used it with the heads that came with it so I'm sorry but can't be of any help as far as drill bits.

No, you need the hex. locking type. The round one just spin around and slip and slide. I thought I'd read that you couldn't use the hex kind but it is wrong. Don't need a chuck. hope that is helpful. I know little about drills but am learning. Drove me batty at first trying to figure out what they were talking about but nice drills Just buy or use the hex type.

It's what they are made for. They do not fit a standard chuck drill, it needs to be an SDS type. I used a regular DeWalt hammer drill, with normal masonry bits, at first. I switched to a Bosch with these bits. What a difference! These bits, in the Bosch (you can use other brands of SDS) drill concrete like butter. Fast, far less noise, less fatigue, less intrusion on clients.

I never tried to do that, but a standard drill chuck should be able to get a good "grip" on it since the end is flat on one side.
