[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Titanium aluminium Electricians step bits by Milwaukee make short work drilling precise holes in sheet metal and electrical boxes.The steps are short and the bits are sharp so they save you time on the job sight.They do have a 1/4 inch quick release shaft and are impact rated for longevity and ease of use. You get three bits,a number #1 a number #4 and a number #9 in a nice compact case.The bits are well made and easy to read so you know exactly when to stop. They are another good product from Milwaukee.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Shockwave bits appear to be of excellent quality and durable. Of course, only a prolonged period of use will determine how durable they really are. They are very sharp and will cut through your work quickly if you let them. If you press too hard you'll find your hole a couple sizes larger than you wanted. Unfortunately, my set of three bits arrived with only two bits in the package. The smallest one was missing, but I'm sure this was an infrequent event. I recommend these bits for any homeowner or shop owner who needs to bore holes in sheet steel. The steps are only about 1/8 inch or less which is plenty for most uses. Get some.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Well worth the price of admission All three bits in this set cut incredibly well. All three punched holes through 0.025" Aluminum without excessive burs or kickback. Other bits have required pilot holes and have left nasty burrs but not these. None of them required a pilot hole be drilled and the smallest did not require a center punch to drill through without wandering. The gold on black lettering is very easy to read and after using them the lettering is still legible. Also - the bits did not gall on the aluminum without using a lubricant (a common problem when drilling aluminum - where the aluminum seizes to the drill bit, covering the cutting edge and rendering it useless until removed). All in all - these bits were very impressive, cut incredibly well, seem to be very durable, and are rated for impact use (a hitachi impact was used for the drilling).

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Wish the tips stayed sharp longer I install electrical for HVAC, so I use these to put holes in duct and panels. After my first set grew dull, I upgraded to the Shockwave set, hoping for a longer lifespan. The tips just wear out too fast. The steps still cut great... once I start the hole with another bit.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Superb I'm an electrician who uses these bits almost daily. These thing rip through whatever steel you can put them against without dulling or slowing down. Crazy good performance that is worth every penny in time saved vs other bits.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There is no question that these step bits are spendy (all of the good ones are, and you get what you pay for), but if you want something that does the job and lasts, this set by Milwaukee (made in the USA) is the ticket. I got the electrician’s set because the #4 bit goes to 7/8” (for ½” conduit and fittings), while the #6 bit goes to 1 1/8” (for ¾” conduit and fittings), our most used sizes. The #1 bit is perfect for pilot holes (1/8”) all the way up to ½” to cover a wide range of common fasteners. These are my first Milwaukee step bits; they claim up to 5x life over non-coated bits. Time will tell. I have some name brand, high-end, non-coated bits that are still going strong.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I've already bought 2 more sets I needed a quick step bit for a panel job with no knock outs, the can was totally enclosed. I went out and grabbed a set and man I was totally impressed with the performance these guys did.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Milwaukee Titanium SHOCKWAVE Impact Duty Step Bit Kit (3-Piece) just made my life much easier. My job requires me to frequently drill holes through metal of various makes and densities. I have always used a standard metal-rated drill bit. I was not familiar with a step bit until I saw this product and thought I would give it a try. What a major increase to my productivity. The SHOCKWAVE tears through metal way faster than my old standard bits, the Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN) coating keeps them sharp much longer, and having the ability to drill multiple sizes of holes with one bit saves a lot of time and hassle. Whether I drilling holes for electrical conduit or mounting hardware on a steel door, this is now my go-to bit. It may be cost prohibitive for the home-use DIYer but I highly recommend it for a tradesman.

This Milwaukee tool has a 5 yr. limited warranty. If you go to Homedepot.com and look up this tool, scroll down to the description and on the right side is the warranty. Click the warranty box and the full warranty will come up to read (no download required) . I think it's a good plan for this tool. So far I have not had one issue with any of my Milwaukee tools.
