Forstner bits are essential woodworking tools for drilling precise, clean holes. They are ideal for creating specific-depth mortises and minimizing tear-out, resulting in neater cuts compared to spade bits or hole saws. These bits bore very precise flat-bottomed holes in wood. Manufactured from heat-treated steel for enhanced strength and durability, they can also cut on the edge of a wood block and create overlapping holes. The integrated center point ensures accurate starting and guidance during the cutting process. Featuring a 3/8" shank, these bits are compatible with most lathes, presses, and drills (cordless, electric, or air). They allow for holes to be drilled without passing through the material, ensuring a clean and precise bottom. Angled holes can also be achieved using a drill press. This listing is for a 32mm forstner bit.
