FAQs

What is the best speed to use?

The ideal speed depends on the wood type. Start with a slower speed for hardwoods and increase as needed. Softer woods can typically handle higher speeds.

Can this bit be used on metal?

No, this bit is designed for wood only. Using it on metal will damage the bit and may not create the desired hole.

What is the benefit of the chamfered cutting spurs?

The chamfered cutting spurs allow for cleaner, faster drilling and extend the life of the bit by reducing friction and heat buildup.

How do I store the drill bit?

Store the drill bit in a dry place to prevent rust. Consider using a bit organizer or case to protect the cutting edges.

What type of drill is this bit compatible with?

This drill bit is compatible with combi drills, drill drivers and impact drivers.

How can I prevent the bit from wandering when starting a hole?

Start drilling at a slight angle, then bring the drill to a perpendicular position to the wood. You can also use a center punch to create a small indentation.

How durable is this drill bit?

The drill bit is designed to be very durable, featuring an extra-thick shank for enhanced durability and robustness.

Troubleshooting

Bit is not drilling smoothly or is getting stuck.

Reduce the drilling speed. Check for any obstructions or knots in the wood. Ensure the bit is sharp. If using an impact driver, reduce the impact setting.

Bit is overheating.

Reduce drilling speed. Apply less pressure. Allow the bit to cool down periodically. If drilling deep holes, withdraw the bit to clear debris.

Hole is not clean or accurate.

Ensure the bit is perpendicular to the wood surface. Use a brad point bit for a more precise start. Check for any wobble in the drill chuck.
