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

These drill bits are designed for use with all types of wood, including softwoods, hardwoods, and plywood.

How do I choose the right size drill bit?

Select the drill bit size based on the size of the screw, dowel, or other hardware you are using. A pilot hole is generally recommended to prevent splitting, especially in hardwoods.

Clean the bits after each use, store them in the provided case, and sharpen them when they become dull. Applying cutting oil during drilling can also help extend the life of the bits.

What is the angle of the drill bit?

What is the shank design of the drill bits?

The drill bits have a round shank design, which makes them compatible with all standard drills.

What is the weight of the drill bit set?

Troubleshooting

Drill bit is wandering or not drilling straight.

Ensure you are using a pilot hole, especially in hardwoods. Check the bit for damage or wear. Make sure the drill is perpendicular to the wood surface and apply even pressure.

Drill bit is overheating and smoking.

Reduce the drill speed and the pressure applied. Allow the bit to cool down periodically. Consider using a cutting lubricant to help dissipate heat.

Drill bit is getting stuck in the wood.

Reverse the drill to remove the bit. Clear the wood chips from the hole and reduce the feed rate. Check the bit for any damage or dullness.
