ITBH201 1-Piece 2 In. Impact Tough Magnetic Bit Holder

This is great for my drill. It holds the bits so they don’t keep falling out. Easy to use.

2-inch: Put to use upon delivery. There are some -ve comments on AMZ for this item but in my case no issues. The +ve are no bit wobble, decent magnet and bits hold in place. For the reviews I read about difficulty in removing bits. I suggest only quality like Bosch or Milwaukee, etc. Cheap bits can be a pull to remove as the machining is less accurate. I gave the cheap stuff to my dad-in-law. Nothing broke and I find the price good for what you get. 6-inch: A longer bit holder and I got some wobble. All else is similar to the 2-inch holder. The wobble is controllable with a 2-speed drill or bit driver. Start slow and only use the torque needed to drive to avoid the wobble.

So yea just like everyone else says it can be difficult removing bits and you may need pliers to remove your bits, but from reviews I’ve read of other bit holders most impact rated bit holders like this have the same issue. This tight hold may be good if you need to use one bit all day long but I change out bits quite often so I did what another guy in the reviews suggested and removed the retention ring. Now the bit is held in with just the force of the very strong magnet which is what I prefer. Also put it in my drill driver that has almost no Chuck wobble and I can say this thing is pretty dang straight so another plus. We’ll see how it holds up through the impacts and will update the review if it fails but for now it’s a great bit holder. Just keep the ring in if you want high retention and take it out if you just want the bit to be retained with just a magnet.

Much better quality than the typical bit holder that comes with a bit set. I broke the last one of those screwing deck framing in place. This held up well as I finished the job. The magnet that holds the bits could be a little weaker and still get the job done. That would make swapping bits easier. I could do it by hand, but a lot of grip was required. I know they recommend using pliers, but that is just silly.

I write reviews very rarely but in this case I am writing this review for the Bosch ITBHQC201 2 In. Impact Tough™ Quick Change Bit Holder. I have over ten bit holders, including other Top brand names but not one of them is as good as this one by Bosch. Here is why I like it so much: It has the same magnetic feature as other top brands have but none of them is as easy as this one in ejecting the bit out. There is one of them (I don't want to mention the name) that requires two pliers to pull the bit out and another top brand requires you to Pull the spring loaded locking mechanism to eject the bit out which does not make any sense to me. Yet, in another top brand (Milwaukee) which is quite similar to this one the spring is very hard and when you have to change bits frequently it becomes painful. One more bad thing about the Milwaukee is the hard plastic Tag that is attached to the bit holder. It is almost impossible to remove without any injury. I was very much tempted to use my DeWalt cutting tool to remove it. I used a DeWalt heavy duty box cutter to cut it but bit took several times to even get a slight cut into the tag. I used two pliers to twist back and forth several times and I was able to remove half of it. By this time the bit holder was badly scratched. > MILWAUKEE ARE YOU LISTENING? < I bought two more of Bosch because it is hard to find it when I need it in a hurry. A good Tip: I painted the Knurled sleeve red color using an Acrylic paint marker which is waterproof and permanent. Now it is very easy to locate it. PLEASE JUST BUY THIS BIT HOLDER BY BOSCH. You will love it also.

I purchased this adapter (?) because the one that came with my driver bit set was way off of true. It wobbled enough that a square drive was almost impossible to keep in the screw head. This one runs true. Other notes: The bit is held in by a magnet and an internal spring ring that ends up sitting in the groove you find in any driver bit. This makes a little harder to insert and remove but the bit does not fall out. It looks like this ring could be removed if it really annoyed someone.

Great item!! Exactly what I wanted!!

Amazing, exactly as advertised, I highly recommend.

What a let down. Even using Bosch impact bits, this bit holder makes for bad engineering. Save your money.

Excelente qualidade

Muy resistente y el iman muy bueno no se, safa la punta

Very happy with the quality.

A useful bit holder for use with multi-tool screwdrivers
