Still waiting for mine, but it did say delivery by 26/5 so could be a week or so yet.

I've already got the ones with the Tungsten Carbide tips & they've been quite average! The HSS ones would be interesting to know how long they last, As some of my TC ones have lost some of the tips (Get what you pay for).Yep they are different. The original ones were described as HSS, and these ones look like they have TC tips, so probably better than the originals.
Mine just arrived too.
They look ok so we'll see when I find a use for them.

Are mag bits not worth the extra outlay or does the quality vary depending on how much you spend?I'm thinking of just ordering a dozen 16mm bits to last me the year.
Still about the same price as a single mag drill bit from the UK.
That's what happens me with holesaws all the time drilling pipe. When it starts to break through at the top it catches at the side due to the curve if you don't back off as you break through and rips teeth off.its always a problem drilling thin steel with hole saws specially by hand they just snatch and off comes the teeth. a pillar drills not 2 bad because u can back off the pressure and there all cutting evenly
Ditto!
