The NEIKO 10037A Left-Hand Drill-Bit Set is built for jobs where standard bits don’t help—especially when you’re trying to back out broken screws, bolts, studs, or other stuck fasteners. These reverse-twist bits are designed for use with reversible drills, often alongside screw extractors, to support common repair work in the home, garage, or shop.

Each bit features a twist style with an angled tip and a 135-degree split point for self-centering starts. That geometry helps reduce walking and improves chip clearing for smoother drilling in metal and steel. The bits are made from high-speed steel and finished with a titanium nitride coating to increase surface hardness and help reduce friction between the bit and the workpiece.
