Can this be use with a drill? thanks

No. It's preferable to hand crank vs. using a drill motor. Unless you have a clutch setting on your drill, and set quite low, it is far too easy to turn your new snake cable into a twisted piece of spaghetti upon hitting any kind of obstruction. I returned this snake to Amazon after finding out that the collar bushing for the cable set-screw is made of cheesy plastic. Upon stripping out, and it will doing a tenant service call Sunday morning before a football game, you will not be able to use the snake. Get a metal collar bushing and it will last...until your brother borrows it and forgets to return it! No. It's preferable to hand crank vs. using a drill motor.

I don't think it can. The thing that rotates it, doesn't really work as well as you'd think. Normally it only removes the snake from it, if you rotate the other way it doesn't return to its casing. I have to push the snake back into it's body to put it away.

yes, you should have no problem as long as the drill will take a smooth bit in it chuck

I would think so. I have a Black & Decker bit set and the drill has had no issues with using them.

Absolutely! You'll just need to use the appropriate sized collet to hold the drill bit.

I suppose you could put a screwdriver bit in this drill, but that is not what is meant for. It is so powerful that I think it would cause more harm than good. Better off having an inexpensive electric screwdriver to complement this drill in my opinion.

If you use hex ended drill bits you can. However, the driver turns slowly so it would only work for soft material with not a lot of depth needed. I only use it for started holes for screws.

If you use hex headed pieces in the drill chuck I think you could. The only negative I can say about this drill is the chuck don't hold a drill bit very tight. The Black and decker NiCad battery life is far superior to a DeWalt or Porter Cable. The battery can set all winter and still have a nearly full charge.

You need to check with black and decker or look at the product in a hardware store but that being said, I seriously doubt it would work. The socket tube that holds the screw driver tips that are shown with the drill is a quick change magnet type hex socket chuck. It may not have the clearance let all of the double end screw driver tips pass thru the hex socket and the tips that do pass thru the hex socket might not have enough socket depth to provide enough hex engagement.

In my opinion no. With this thick of a bit you would likely burn out your dremel motor and it may not drill perfectly straight.

You could, with a very small electric drill. My son does but remember, the bits (etc) are not made for this type of use. One has to be very careful. I hope that helps.

I am sorry, but I do not know this definitively. I gave this item away as a gift. He did use it on his own standard drill, and never mentioned having any difficulty, so I would assume so.

I doubt it. The bit surfaces are too large. There are probably specialized products for those small applications or you might be better off using a thin reverse drill bit.

Yes. I am very impressed with this drill. Very powerful, and I drilled brick and cinder blocks with no problems. I hope this helps you. Ray

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.

I have never tried that with this drill, but from past experience, you need a hammer drill, or a box full of masonry bits because they will keep breaking.

I don't see why not. The plastic is quite thick and a small drill bit shouldn't have any problem with it. In hindsight, I wish I had done that.

Absolutely. With a sharp drill bit this drill has more than enough torque to handle any job around the house. It's really not a matter of having enough torque with most drills, the difference is battery life and charging times with today's drills. For general use around the house by the average 'handyman', this drill is a great buy!
