I'd like to use this tool as a drill. What is the widest drill bit which I can use with this tool?

Do not buy this for a drill unless you only do small holes. Biggest size bit maybe 1/8

Sergo, I can't answer that specific question as I don't have a micrometer at home to measure my bits, however it comes with an 1/9 inch collet. I found some great informaion about this product at http://www.gyrostools.com/Rotary-Tools---*Dremel%C2%AE-Type/c65/p474/PowerPro-Cordless-Rotary-Tool-Kit/product_info.html . I recommend purchasing a keyless chuck that way you can use your rotary tool like a typical drill.

I only use the fine and ultra-fine drill bits, so I can't help you there. Suggest contacting the manufacturer. Regards. M

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.

if i was going to try i would get a separate set of just drill bits, anything steel alloy seems to get good ratings, and i would drill a hole before running these through something that thick, one inch would be about the max, since the bits are only a few inches long and the threading teeth start about a half inch in. Just keep in mind any expensive small drill bits will still break if you don't take your time working with metal.

It should fit as long as it is an sds or sds plus bit. An sdds max will not fit. However i dont know how well it will work this is not a huge drill and doesn't have a lot of lbs of striking force. A bigger drill would probably work better.

Only drill bits with the correct hex shank will fit. DEWALT offers a pretty good selection of bits for this tool.

The drill bit doesn't have the size labeled on it. I used a caliper to measure it and it is 0.245" or converted to mm 6.223mm

All you should need is a good bi-metallic drill bit. I had not problem, just make sure you use a small center punch to make a dimple so the drill bit does not walk and ruin the finish. Just a small dimple don't go overboard and make a big one.

Cannot say, my drill came to me weeks ago broken, the drivers bit would not turn called general tool,they said they would send me another one still have not received. So I could not recommend anything about the drill.Michael Rogers

I will have to agree with William, I would not use that big of drill bit in these. I very seldom use a larger drill than the PS21, since it meets most of my needs. But safety-wise, a larger bit in this small a tool may kick, try to spin the drill, and at least sprain your wrist.

There is a nice table in the Helicoil catalog here http://www.helicoil.in/pdf/HeliCoil%20Catalogue.pdf, but to answer your question you use a size Q (0.3320") drill bit.

I used it on hammr drill with 1/2" Chuck. It worked very well. It has hex shaped shaft and doesn't fit anything smaller than 1/2" chuck. When my happer drill broke, I used wrench adapter and smaller drill to make some holes on marble. That worked too. but hammer action would have been much faster. I don't own SDS drill, but I would think hex bit should fit as long as the chuck is big enough.

This drill has a keyed chuck which allows for bits from the smallest, up to 1/2" diameter. Most likely, any bit you normally use, will fit. A good, powerful tool!

It comes with a Philip and Flat Tip combination drill bit. You can use that as a sample to get the right size you want.

I have a regular Ryobi drill and it works great(not impact). It uses a 1/4" hex bit

Hello; The bit that I have fits into a 3/8 drill easily. I believe my bit is the same bit you are asking about. Good luck.

You can buy bits that are larger than 3/8 inch that have a 3/8 shank. If you plan to do a lot of drilling with bits larger than 3/8 ", invest in a bigger drill motor. As another reviewer mentioned, the thread count has to match to go to the larger chuck. Also, it is not alwasy easy to remove the original chuck. Make sure you try to remove it before ordering the replacemant, if you wish to go that route.

I can use all the bits I have including my cheap unknown brand cordless drill. I haven't found any that doesn't fit, but I don't have very many different brands. Hope that helps!
