“Milwaukee Electric Tool Corporation introduces SwitchBlade(TM) selfeed bits, a new solution designed to ensure that contractors maintain a sharp blade.”
Key features include heavy-duty 7/16" quick-change hex shank for ensuring secure chuck grip and blades that are precision-ground for producing clean holes. The selfeed bit is replaceable (comes with second replacable blade) which maintains a sharp blade twice as long as normal (naturally). Material used is investment cast high alloy steel, promising to hold sharp cutting edges longer. Milwaukee also claim that the "newly designed aggressive feed screw provides 12% faster cutting than a standard selfeed bit".
The drill bits come with accessory storage kit, which includes replacement blades and hex wrench for quick replacement.
These bits are targeted for plumbers, electricians and HVAC contractors, and are available in sizes most frequently used by these professionals. The "SwitchBlade selfeed bits are used for drilling multiple holes in all types of wood and for various types of pipe, vent and gas lines and bulk wire routing."
These new drill bits will be available in July of 2008.
