Are these good for metal?

They work very well. They are diamond files, just not the pricey "cadillac" versions.

I haven't used them on metal...i use then to mod plastic parts which they work great for. I would assume they would work on softer metals or to do precise work on metals like gun smithing. Again i would only use them to take off very tiny amounts of metal. I didn't see a country stamp on them but a would bet china or some asiain country.

I don't recommend you buying this set. They are very weak and may be only good for the very delicate jobs. They are really bad-made and cheap.

I use them in hard and soft wood, and IMO these are not for any kind of metal

I have only used them on softer metals (copper, aluminum), so I have no personal experience with steel, but as they are diamond files, they should work on any metal (harder metals will just take longer to file).

they're not really course but they get the job done for small things don't really work that great on metal

I would say no. The metal quality is not up to par. I would limit the use to thin vinyl, card stocks, flexible magnets, etc.

I really have no idea. They are metal, so I assume so, but with how things are made today, who knows. My son's teachers loved them however.

I think these are geared more for metal and the grits on the sandpaper are pretty rough. Some could be used for course sanding on wood but nothing fine.

Not sure. They adhered to the decorative plates very well. I have not tried them with metal plates. Sorry I cannot answer your question definitively.

Probably, but don't know for sure. I use them to cut glass. But the cost is probaby worth a try. If you go to orchard supply or some place similar look at the different wheels (accesories) in the Dremel brand, it should tell you which tool is for cutting metal so u can match with an off brand.

I don't see why not. They are completely metal. I would spray them with a nonstick cooking spray first.

I guess they would be. Cups have no metal content; only silicone. I have used these for oven baking only.

I don't believe it would and I am not going to ruin mine by trying. They are not designed for metal, especially that thick.

Yes.If they drop off too often, they lose their magnetism. So best keep them on metal surface.

I found using these on mild steel they would break when applying any pressure at all!! I would think they would be better for the softer metals!! Remember to clear your chips when drilling copper!! Also use some lube!! I learned this 50 years ago drilling copper!!! Poor quality!!

I bought these specifically for metal and they are excellent. For concrete, I would choose bits specific for masonry.

I cannot tell you with total confidence that it will. They work great on ceramic & glass, therefore it is reasonable to think that they would work on metal too. I would use them on metal without reservation. But that's me.

For metal you'd be much better off using a carbide or titanium countersink. Amazon has a variety available.
