If you’re thinking of buying the DEWALT DWE1622K 2-Speed Magnetic Drill Press, get a set of these at the same time. Much faster than using twist drill bits!

Great quality.

What a great tool. Made a special mount to drill mounting holes in my travel trailer frame and saved me oh so much time. I just set it on a piece of steel plate and it is ready to drill. This tool saves me so much drill time with any size drill bit in the suggested range of sizes recommended. I use up to 1 inch drill bit and 1 inch hole saw. I use a squirt bottle filled with 8/20 water soluble oil and 20% water. Great combination. totally recommend this tool.

I just can’t get over the quality of the products that I’ve gotten from Evolution and these Annular Cutters are no exception!! I’m drilling a 5/8″ hole through 1″ cast iron plate. I have almost 100 holes to drill for a fixture table that I’m building and every hole I’ve drilled is exactly like the last; the diameter hasn’t waivered the least! Fantastic product at a great price.

I had to drill some holes in the frame of my VNL780 Volvo truck and these made the job very easy! I am very happy with these bits. I would recommend them to anyone who needs to drill precision holes rapidly.

I’m starting a small metal fabrication business and picked up this Mag Drill. I had previously purchased an Evolution Metal Saw and was impressed with it so purchased the EvoMag42. The drill has some restrictions that are common to all mag drills (distance from the bit to the base) that you have to overcome but this thing is great. The magnet is more than powerful enough to hold on to whatever you need (Though I haven’t tried it upside down yet.) The bits are easy to change and it comes with a standard drill chuck as well even though the listing states it doesn’t. You will get messy if you use the included oil feed system but the cut quality is great. There is also a lot of adjust ability with the depth so you can use the drill on a stand more like a drill press, or to drill on a raised piece of steel. I paired this drill with Evolution Annular Cutters and Bosch Cobalt Bits and it chews through steel like nothing. It is pretty noise so hearing protection is recommended. My only complaint is the locking lever to set your height does slip a little over time if doing multiple holes. This could cause problems if truing to do a repeatable precise depth hole. Otherwise, if just putting holes in steel, you wont have a problem.

Purchased these to go with the evolution mag drill to drill holes. These annular cutters are very good quality and cut very fast. I use these to do side fab and welding on customers properties. Highly recommended product.

Easy to set up and operate. I like that it came with a drill chuck as well, doubles its usefulness over just using annular cutters. All told I have drilled over 300 1/4″ holes and nearly 100 3/8″ holes in 3/4″ plate so far with no problems Haven’t used any annular cutters yet but don’t think it will have any problems with those either.
