Milwaukee Nut Drivers Centrotec

[Tyler Ernsberger]

I found this at Home Depot today.  They are Milwaukee Insert Magnetic Nut Drivers.  I use the centrotec bits all the time with my drill and every time I need a nut driver I have to switch out to my Jacob Chuck.  I know that Festool makes a 1/4 and 3/8 socket adapter, but im not a fan being that the sockets can fall off,  and it always seems like it happens when im 20ft in the air.  They were priced at $15 and includes sizes 1/4, 5/16, 3/8, 7/16, and 1/2.  Its an awesome set i have tried it out and it locks in with my Festool Lock Extension.

They include three of them with the shockwave bit set as well (i think 1/4", 5/16, and 3/8).  Unfortunately, even though they say the bits were designed to handle impact driving, I've found it takes only a few drives to chip their phillips bits when using the impact driver.  I use the Dewalt fatmax bits instead now in my Milwaukee drills (I don't have Festool drill...yet).

I used the 5/16 bit all day today to drive in timber locks with no issues.  I was not using it in an impact, i was using my t15 and had no issuses.  I wish i would have found this set sooner.  I have noticed with impact bits that batches differ.  Some times you get a good batch and they last for a while.  Other times you get a handful of uses a single bit before it breaks.  It doesnt matter on brand.  I have bought Dewalt,  Milwaukee and Bosch and still find bad batches from time to time.  Im also not a fan of impact drills for every day use.  If im working on my truck i will pull it out and it works great for that.  For driving screw they are too noisy and not as fast as a drill.  The noise drives me nuts.  And i dont want my clinets listening to it all day.
