Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Double-ended 1/8 in. bits are a shop staple for sheet metal, trim and light fabrication work because the second cutting end extends service life between replacements. Run higher spindle speeds on thin material and use a center punch to keep the point from walking. Keep several on hand, since small-diameter bits break easily under side load.
Secure the workpiece before drilling and remove the bit from the chuck before handling the cutting ends, which are sharp.
