She should be terrified! That is a DeWalt #2 Phillips bit. All contractors know that DeWalt bits are terrible. The tools are great, but this means that her daycares contractor is incompetent for not using superior Diablo bits.
It’s not the brand that’s the problem, Torx or go home!
Maybe they did and that's why they don't notice a missing philips bit
Quite so. Though I'd say Dewalt tools with Milwaukee bits and Diablo blades. Those shockwave bits can take a beating.
I agree, I also use Milwaukee bits, but got a new pack of Diablo one a few months back. They seem to have the hardness of the Milwaukee bits, but don't get stuck as much in the mag bit holders when pounded in with a DeWalt Atomic impact.
Robertson or gtfo
Nah man, torx for life
Wait, really? Their skill saws and drills are great, but a tiny piece of metal is where they skip corners?
Ya, unbelievable, isn't it? DeWalt bits are soft and wear out/strip way too fast. DeWalt is in the same group as Black and Decker and I think that division makes the bits and just slaps the DeWalt name on them. Milwaukee and Makita bits last far longer and usually have better features. I recently got a pack of Diablo bits to try out, their blades and concrete drill bits are top notch, and so far the bits seem to be also.
Ryobi bits are the worst. Some will immediately break. The bits with open ends to fit other bits aren't even to size and the bits you put in them aren't snug and will fall out. First time any bit goes off the track it immediately strips. Some just break on light usage. The steel just breaks in half.
I presume instead of coal coke for carbon, they substituted shit, which while it does have some carbon produces an inferior product.
Good thing she didn't find a 7/16 or a 10 mm socket.
Any socket left by a DeWalt-bit-using contractor, would likely be Pittsburgh branded, and best left to go back to the dust from whence it came.
10mm sockets have too high of a vapor pressure. They'd have evaporated long before she could find one.
I always thought they were inter dimensional, and that finding one changes the timeline.
