Overview

Meet the NEIKO 11401A six-piece Brad Point Drill Bit Set, crafted to help woodworkers and hobbyists achieve clean, accurate holes with confidence. Built from premium 4241 high-speed steel, these bits resist wear while staying sharp through repeated use. The 1/4 inch hex shank supports easy use with quick-change chucks or standard drills, enabling fast bit swaps without losing control. The short, stubby length (about 2.3 inches) is designed to reduce bit deflection in tight spaces, helping you work in corners, beneath shelves, or inside narrow parts of a project. A hex shank holder is included to keep your bit lineup organized and ready for action.

Real world use and performance

In practical projects, these compact bits excel when drilling into hardwood, softwood, laminated materials, fiberboard, or plywood. The 135-degree tip bites smoothly, guiding the bit straight and reducing wandering for clean pilot holes. Whether you are installing hardware, creating joinery, or laying out intricate cutouts, the quick-change compatibility and stubby design help you stay in control and finish with a professional touch.

Versatility and care

Designed for a range of tasks from hinges to dowel holes, the set pairs well with quick-change chucks and drivers across many drill models. For best results, keep bits sharp, use steady feeds, and store them in the included holder to maintain organization and readiness for the next project.

Tips for best results

Use light, steady feeds and choose the bit size closest to your hole diameter to minimize tear-out. The included hex shank holder helps you keep the bits organized and accessible, saving time during setups and rework.
