Dormer A191413 HSS High Speed Steel Jobber Drill Bits with 118 Degree Standard Point, Set of 13

I have used Dormer for decades, best quality and constant accurate sizes . Hard to beat.

great quality/price relationship. Most pleased!

After using cheap drill finally bit the bullet and bough these Dormer drills the quality shows

Having bought, over the years, more drills than I can remember, with so many of those losing their edge, hunting trips looking for that small drill are OVER. This Dormer set, in it's own box, is a absolute asset for any small workshop, Dormer that name sticks in my mind when I think of drills....

A good set of Imperial drills which are getting difficult to obtain but losing one star because they aren’t made in Sheffield where all good tools were made.

Remember the Christmas presents when the box gave more pleasure than the contents -I bought this for the circular case. I had been looking for the circular case for a long time. It somehow persuades me to put the bits back after use, so they have lasted longer than other drill bits: I'm no longer losing bits.The bits are OK and cheaper than buying similar in a high street DIY.

Best drill bits I've ever purchased good for repeatedly drilling holes in steel trunking, cable tray, distribution boards etc. And I still haven't had to sharpen them.

These are great. i have been using drill bits for a long long time but found them all to suck after some heavy use. I have been drilling steel for a week now with these and they are fantastic. I found this make recommenced on a mig welding forum and i am glad I did.

Worth every penny!

These drills have been good so far. I use them for drilling into stainless and mild steel. I am a bit of a roughy on items like this and they have been forgiving whilst still getting the job done. There is nothing remarkable about the drills but I would buy them again for their money. They are worth the dollars wherever they are made, in my judgement, and they should last well with an occasional sharpening.

Back on Christmas day of 2008, I bought some Dormer brand drills I had found listed on Craigslist. Not being familiar with the Dormer brand, I thought I would give them a try since the price seemed fair. The individual selling them had four different sizes available so I bought one pack each of the largest and smallest sizes he had. I've tried many brands over the years and had almost given up hope of ever finding a good brand of drills. That was almost four years ago and I can honestly say today that the Dormer drills are the best I've ever bought. I've only used one drill out of each pack and they are as sharp today as when I bought them. I've drilled at least 50 holes with each drill in materials ranging from hardened steel to copper to aluminum to plastic and still haven't managed to dull either bit.So, when the time came that I needed a set of wire gauge drills, I looked at several brands and finally decided to go with a brand I trust. I was not disappointed. This set is of the same high quality as the Dormer drills I had purchased in 2008. If you doubt the quality standards of the Dormer brand, just do a Google search and check them out for yourself. Also, the storage case is very well designed. It's designed in such a way as to allow only one drill at a time to be removed from the case. There's nothing quite as frustrating as accidentally dropping a bunch of drills this small and then trying to find them. The unique design of this case eliminates that potential problem.

Actually, I bought this set more to gauge metric holes than to drill them, so I can't speak to their sharpness nor durability, etc.However, they arrived promptly and well packed. The container is a very attractive and practical cylindrical plastic drill index with a rotating cover that you can turn to let a specific drill slide out without spilling the whole contents out. it seems to be strong enough to survive average use. No weak little hinge balls to break off first time you open it.The bits are well made, cleanly cut and clearly marked. I am very satisfied with the set so far and am looking for a set of larger metric bits from the same company.

This set is made in Brasil, which was a disappointment as several other brands are now making bit sets back in the US again. The easiest way to tell the country of origin on the Dormer sets from what I've gathered now is whether the case is made of plastic or metal, where the metal cases seem to be American made.I don't agree that the case is sturdy, as it's 100% plastic and I'm sure the plastic links used as hinges will break sooner than later. It does the job as long as you baby it.Regardless of my two complaints, the bits themselves seem fine and the extra four bits for very common sizes that I use for tapping is definitely a plus and was the reason for purchase. Feel free to ask any specific questions you might have.
