FAQs

What type of wood can I use these drill bits on?

These drill bits are suitable for both soft and hardwoods.

Can I use these drill bits in a drill press?

Yes, these drill bits can be used in both a hand drill and a drill press.

How do I maintain the sharpness of the drill bit?

Clean the drill bit after each use and store it in a dry place. Sharpen or replace the drill bit when it becomes dull.

What is the purpose of the brad point?

The brad point helps to accurately center the drill bit and prevent it from wandering when starting the hole.

Why are there flutes on the drill bit?

The flutes remove the wood chips from the hole as you drill, preventing the bit from clogging and ensuring clean holes.

What is the shank type?

The shank type is cylindrical.

Troubleshooting

Drill bit is wandering or not starting accurately.

Ensure the brad point is properly centered on the wood before drilling. Apply consistent, steady pressure.

Holes are tearing or splintering.

Reduce the drill speed and ensure the drill bit is sharp. Support the wood from the back to minimize tear-out.

Withdraw the drill bit, clear the flutes of any packed material, and resume drilling with less pressure.
