What happens here

This video showcases a specialized cobalt drill/tap combo bit used with an impact driver to efficiently create both a pilot hole and internal threads in a single operation, primarily demonstrated on metal. The technique is presented as a method to save time and effort by combining two common fastening preparation steps into one, suitable for robust materials.

Now you're tapping the threads >> while you're drilling the hole. >> So Keith, you're telling me WE CAN DRILL AND TAP at the same time? >> Yes, you can. And it's not the storebought high-speed steel that you see at the local store. And they're machined down for an impact driver. So once it starts to thread the hole, the impact of the drill kicks in. So now Oh, that's crazy. Cool. So, now you're drilling the hole plus you're tapping the threads from number eight all the way to/ in to go them or damage them and you're not happy with them, we replace them with another one. You can buy them on our website at $200. We have them at a show for for 150. Go to rodmanrill.com, see some more videos. Awesome. Thank you very much. >> You're welcome. [screaming]
