drill bits
Hole-making attachments
Drill bits are the cutting tools that attach to a drill, designed to bore holes in various materials.
Different types exist for wood, metal, masonry, and other surfaces—each with distinct shapes and coatings suited to the task.
I need to pick up some drill bits for the concrete work.
The singular drill bit refers to one such tool.
