As can be seen in the calculation above, it is over 7 times more expensive to drill each hole with the best metal cobalt drill bit from Bosch compared to Adiseal Ultimate metal cobalt drill bit. Based on cost per hole, Adiseal is more value for money. We have not even included the extra savings that can be made on the energy required to drill each hole.

Cobalt drill bits excel in drilling hard materials, offering durability and wear resistance. On the other hand, HSS drill bits are versatile and cost-effective, making them suitable for a broader range of drilling tasks.

What’s more, with reputable brands like Alpen, Carbitool, and Sutton being featured in our product catalogue, we can guarantee you’ll be getting the best drill bit sets in Australia when you shop with us.

For wear resistance testing purposes, the drilling was carried out without lubricants, coolants, or cutting oils, although these can help reduce the bit’s temperature and extend its lifespan. The drilling processes were video recorded and timed using video timestamps.

Whether you’re a DIY enthusiast, a seasoned tradesman, or a weekend warrior, our mission is to equip you with the finest tools available. We don’t just sell drill bits; we provide solutions to make your projects easier, faster, and more efficient. Of course, you’ll find a great range of boring drill bits as well as masonry drill bit sets when you shop with us, but we’ve also got your broader DIY needs covered too.

The hardest masonry drill bits are typically crafted from tungsten carbide, renowned for its extreme hardness and durability. Tungsten carbide surpasses the materials it drills into, like concrete, brick, and stone, making it ideal for prolonged use without premature wear or breakage.

To find out what the best metal drill bit is, we carried out a series of tests with drill bits from several different brands such as Milwaukee Cobalt Red, DeWalt Extreme, Bosch Cobalt, and Makita along with the new Adiseal Ultimate metal drill bit. Using a Scheppach DP60 drill press, the test was to drill as many 10mm holes as possible in 6mm thick stainless steel (SUS304). To conduct a fair and accurate test, the we set the drill press to maintain a consistent speed of 400 rpm. We also attached a 5kg weight to the drill press arm during each hole’s drilling, maintaining uniform force and RPM for fairness.

The Adiseal Ultimate range also includes the fastest no-hammer masonry drill bit and multi-material drill bit. It was found to be the best masonry drill bit in our tests. It had the fastest drilling speed when drilling without hammer function on the drill. Drilling without hammer function provides numerous advantages over hammer drilling including:

A more durable drill bit with longer life can be more value for money as they can drill more holes, overall costing less per hole. Cheaper drill bits may end up costing more money over time if they wear out quickly and drill fewer holes than longer lasting bits. Calculate the cost per hole by dividing the drill bit’s price by the total number of holes drilled. Cheaper bits might actually have a higher cost per hole than more durable ones. In our test, Bosch PointTeQ’s non-cobalt bit failed to drill any holes, while the Adiseal Ultimate metal drill bit successfully drilled 135 holes in total.

Drilling into abrasive materials like concrete can wear out drill bits, especially if they are not durable. It can also take some time and energy to drill into.

Adiseal Ultimate metal drill bit drilled 135 holes in total which was 9 times more holes than the best metal cobalt drill bit from Bosch (which only managed 15 holes in total). It also drilled more than 3 times the number of holes than the best DeWalt metal cobalt drill bit (which managed 39 holes in total). Adiseal Ultimate metal drill bits was easily the most durable metal drill bit.

Other advantages of the Adiseal Ultimate metal drill bit include bigger chip removal and cleaner cut holes compared to the competitor bits.

For thick steel drilling, the best option is a cobalt drill bit. Made from a durable alloy of cobalt, tungsten, and chromium, cobalt drill bits excel in hard material drilling such as steel, cast iron, and stainless steel. Their high heat tolerance is essential for thick steel drilling, as the process generates considerable friction and heat.

The toughest drill bits are crafted from carbide, a highly durable and wear-resistant material. Typically employed for drilling into tough materials like metal, concrete, and stone, carbide drill bits also excel in precision drilling due to their ability to maintain a sharp edge over prolonged use.

Several non-cobalt metal drill bits like the Milwaukee Thunderweb, were also tested but excluded from the chart for fairness purposes. The non-cobalt Bosch PointTeq metal drill bit did not manage to drill any holes in the 6mm thick stainless steel SUS304 in our tests.

Adiseal Ultimate at an average of 31.7 seconds per hole, was over 4 times faster than the best cobalt metal drill bit from Bosch which took on average 132.4 seconds per hole.
