Are the bits magnetic at all?

The bits are not magnetic, but having all the different types of bits and the 1/4, 5/6 & 3/8 nut driver sizes, plus the ratcheting makes it a most have.

The orange and yellow handle tools on the left are magnetized but the bits on the right are not magnetized in the set I received which looks just like the one in the product photos. Looking through the reviews and answers here, some people are receiving magnetized bits and some people aren't.

Yes....they are made to drill metal. Make sure you don't put lateral pressure on your drill....you will snap any bit if you don't use the tool properly. Drill bits are designed to go in/out, up and down, not in and then side to side.

Hi Barbara. The bit on top is magnetic fixed. The other spare bits, are exposed when you put and pull the removed one on the back of the desired bit hole. It's very simple and easy.

The bits I've read on it say they are, but not 100% sure. Sorry not much help.

Yes all three are fully magnetized. I bought them for my son and he loves them - uses them all the time.

No. I wish they were. I took a magnet to mine and was able to provide a weak magnetic field to it though that was adequate enough to hold small screws in place until they seated.

No, it is not magnetic. However, there are spring-like "grabbers" down in the chuck that hold the bits in place very securely...they do not fall out.

Yes the screwdriver has a magnetic collar and in turn the bits become magnetized.

I cannot recall if they are magnetized. But, they didn't work well for me. Got I screw out but not the other.

Yes they are magnetized. I disagree with the answer from Goebel above. Maybe he got a bad batch.

These boards are not magnetic. I have bought magnetic ones at an office suooly place like Office Depot. They have a metal border and were marked as magnetic. Hope that helps.

The tools work very well, but are not magnetized. However they are easily magnetized by rubbing them on any magnet for a few seconds prior to use. You may have to do this every few screws, but very easy. Hope this helps. Rick M.

These boards are not magnetic. I keep some in a box for student use and I hung a couple with push pins surrounding the outside.
