DESIGNED TO FIT MAKITA 18V/40V/12V: Specially designed to fit Makita Tools. Don't sacrifice the fit & functionality of your magnetic drill bit attachment on similar universal products.

This holds all the necessary bits to get the job done. Each clip can hold up to six bits and have a holder on each side of the drill, meaning you can house a maximum of 12 bits on the drill. Each slot has a magnet, meaning your bit won’t wriggle free.
