Hmmm - perhaps -

The bits came with the Driver - Makita bits..


While I don't agree with the notion that better bits will necessarily last
longer when using an impact driver, I do think that a lot of bundled
Makita and DeWalt bits are of quite poor quality.


What would you recommend?


I have several sets of Wera bits, and have been very impressed with them,
they seem to last a very long time.

Grunff,

Many thanks for your help...

Yes - good thought - I have some Wera screwdrivers
and they are very good...

I believe the bits do need to have this sort of shank,...

I expect Wera do this sort of bit - I will follow up on this..

Thanks,
Roy
