ETS7345 Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 DeWalt's new torque rated bits! It will be hard to top the Makita gold bits. I need pick some of these up and give em a test! http://toolguyd.com/dewalt-flextorq-impact-bits/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 They look very similar to the Wera Impactor bits. The Wera bits might be great quality but I'm not willing to spend 40 bucks on bits they get lost or grow legs way too easy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPSElias Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 I had a bad experience with the Milwaukee bits like this....I hope they have gotten better over the years, I like my solid DeWalt impact ready bits, I am thinking of trying the Makita Gold's due to the good reviews it has gotten. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmijo Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Same here don. I used to like the Milwaukee bits. But after using solid dewalt impact ready bits. The Milwaukee bits go bye bye. The dewalt impact bits are really 10times stronger than standard bits to me and I said 5times stronger than the milwaukee. But like dr99 said $40 is way too much for bits that might get lost or somehow went missing tho. But good new is since the new dewalt impact ready bits are foming out. The old dewalt impact bits price is going to drop;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conductor562 Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 The Milwaukee bits perform great, they just don't last.My current favorite is the Makita impact gold. I'm very happy with them this far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TylerDama Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 The Makita bits are very nice, you can buy a $19 kit that comes with a nifty pop up bit holder and a magnetic tip...The green outer sleeve portion of the tip tends to fall of though so my personal recommendation is just purchasing the bits and skip the set.

Moze Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 I've been using the new Flex Torq bits and love them. The Phillips #2 bits are nice because they fit a #2 head great but they also fit #3 heads and the white plastic screw in drywall anchors which normally take a #3 phillips bit. I haven't beat on them so can't speak to their durability, but as of right now, they're my go-to bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fazzman Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I recently bought a Dewalt Flextorq set. They are pretty nice. Been rebuilding my deck and used the set to drive all the screws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fazzman Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 a little fyi the amazon link that toolguyd provides to that magnetic holder,it also comes with a tool bit as well. A chance to try it for relatively cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
