Technically, you can use a Milwaukee drill or impact driver without a bit holder. These power tools are typically designed to hold bits, so you don’t necessarily need to worry about putting bit holders into them before inserting bits. However, bit holders can provide a slightly extended reach when using a drill or impact driver and make it easier to change bits, which is why some people prefer purchasing them to go with their drills and impact drivers.
Are you one of them? Then you will be happy to hear that you can buy one of Milwaukee’s best bit holder options at Walmart right now for almost 30% off. The Milwaukee Shockwave Impact Duty 3-Inch Magnetic Bit Holder normally costs $15, but the retailer is currently selling it for just $11, making it a great time to invest in one for your tool box.
Despite only being a few inches long, this Milwaukee magnetic bit holder can make a huge difference in how you use your drills and impact drivers. It’s compatible with 1-inch insert bits and features both a C-ring and a magnet to hold these bits in place.
This bit holder is also remarkably tough. Made from Milwaukee’s proprietary Alloy76 steel, it’s shock- and wear-resistant and boasts the brand’s optimized shock zone, allowing it to absorb torque without risk of breakage. Milwaukee even equipped it with a unique two-piece design, further making it ideal for high-torque applications.
“I just bought my first impact driver and a bit kit with this holder, and I’m in love,” one reviewer wrote on Milwaukee’s website. “Milwaukee killed it with this product.”
A second shopper added, “It works perfectly. I would definitely buy one again.”
