FAQs

What drill bit sizes are the drill stops compatible with?

The drill stops are designed for use with 6mm, 8mm, and 10mm drill bits.

Is the hex key included?

No, a 2.5mm hex key is required to fit the drill stops, but it is not included in the pack.

How do I set the drilling depth?

Slide the drill stop onto the drill bit to the desired depth, then tighten the set screw using the hex key.

Can I use these with any type of drill bit?

Yes, but ensure the drill bit is the correct diameter (6mm, 8mm, or 10mm) for the corresponding drill stop.

What material are the drill stops made from?

The product description doesn't specify the material, but they are designed to be durable for workshop use.

How do I maintain the drill stops?

Wipe them clean after use and store them in a dry place.

Troubleshooting

Drill stop slips during drilling.

Ensure the set screw is tightened securely with the 2.5mm hex key. Check for any debris between the drill stop and the drill bit. If the drill bit is worn, consider replacing it.

Holes are not the correct depth.

Double-check the depth setting on the drill stop before drilling. Make sure the drill stop is seated correctly on the drill bit and hasn't moved during setup.
