Power Bit Vs. Impact Bit Vs. Insert Bit...WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?! (Driver Bit Guide For New DIYers!)

Many new DIYers overlook a few of the most basic differences between driver bit types. This can be detrimental, because the rise of strong impact drivers has created more confusion surrounding what type of bit to safely use. This short video from The Honest Carpenter will explain the differences between Power Bits, Impact Bits, and Insert Bits, and show how to best use them!

Power Bits are longer silver-colored bits that are meant to chuck directly into keyless chuck power drills.

Insert Bits are shorter (1") silver bits that CAN chuck into standard power drills. BUT, they're really best suited for use with a BIT HOLDER or EXTENSION SOCKET. These devices were created to chuck into drills, and provide an appropriate 1/4" socket for quickly changing between insert bits.

Impact Bits are often black with colorful bands around the neck (or, in some cases these days, gold in color--Makita bits especially. These driver beats are rated for use in impact drivers, which create a substantial amount of torque.

Impact Bits are capable of flexing slightly in their torsional shaft so they don't break during heavy usage.

Impact Bits also have a POWER GROOVE near the bottom of the shank, which lets them chuck easily into the quick-release collet on impact drivers.

However, to confuse the issue, most standard Power Bits now also have this power groove, though I'm not sure why since they shouldn't be used in impact drivers, but most standard drills don't come with fast-change collets.

If you know why this is, shout it out in the comments!

Thanks for watching!
