- Drill Bit is a Predacon from the Beast Era portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Drill Bit constantly thirsts for more power. He has a drill for a hand, which makes fighting Maximals that much easier.
Fiction
3H Tales of the Beast Wars comics
During the final battle with Shokaract, several realities converged into a single, apocalyptic timestorm. Beast Warriors from alternate realities emerged, including Drill Bit, Cybershark, B'Boom, Transquito, Air Hammer, Polar Claw and unidentified others, though all of them were summarily defeated.
IDW Beast Wars comics
Magmatron recruited Drill Bit, along with Transquito, Spittor, Iguanus, Manterror, and Razorbeast. Magmatron's plan was to use the abandoned stasis pods on prehistoric Earth to build an army and take over Cybertron. Upon arrival, Magmatron sent the others to watch over the stasis pods as they were activated. Drill Bit stayed by commander's side.
Razorbeast was revealed as a Maximal spy when Maximals started coming out of the pods. On his way out of Predacon camp, Razorbeast smashed through Dril Bit.
While the rest of the new Predacon army sought to quell the new Maximal army, Drill Bit and Spittor, along with Magmatron, hunted down Razorbeast. Drill Bit got the drop on Optimus Minor, but Snarl got the drop on Drill Bit. He returned to his master unaccomplished.
Later, Drill Bit and Magmatron rendezvous with Iguanus. Iguanus had located a blank protoform into which Ravage's spark would be inserted. He then accompanied Magmatron and Iguanus to capture Megatron and send him back to Cybertron (to appease the Tripredacus Council). They succeeded in the capture, but failed to prepare the transwarp shunt. Grimlock intervened and easily defeated Drill Bit.
Toys
Beast Wars

- The Drill Bit mold appears to have an engineering defect; the pegs on the insect-leg parts are pointed in the wrong direction to fit into the holes intended for them. This defect was not fixed for Drill Nuts.
