Screwdriver bits

Question

Do it yourself

10 years ago I bought a set of screwdriver bits . The metal is durable, I was happy with happiness, I used them all the time. At the moment, the edges are still in an acceptable form, but I would like to update the bits.

Tell me, how can you distinguish really high-quality professional bits from disposable consumer goods? Maybe there are some special markings?

Answer 1

You need to buy branded consumables, not those that are sold by weight, I prefer Hitachi, Bosch, Hilti, Stanley. I ordered sets of Milwaukee and DeWalt bits from the States (prices are lower there, and there is more choice). Roughly speaking, you need to look for bits that have a stamp with the manufacturer's logo.
The difference with cheap Chinese ones is simply huge, one branded bit copes with the same number of screws as a dozen Chinese ones (or even more).
Why are there bits, even such a banal thing as replaceable blades for a construction knife. While one Stanley or Irwin branded blade becomes dull, a dozen Chinese ones become dull (you stupidly bother to change them when, for example, you cut a lot of foam).

Arctic fox ... This is habr, gentlemen.
Let's discuss some more - what is the best way to make Olivier salad or cook borscht!?
It's like an it portal...

Answer 3

Ask the sellers so that the bit iron is hardened, these are practically not deformed. The win-win option was described to you from above - bits are more expensive and will be the best.

Answer 4

Take a needle file and cut a good bat, and then a shit bat. I'm sure there will be a difference. A little practice and experience and wake up with 2 cuts to determine. The method is certainly not ideal, but it has the right to life.
