Freud Seven-Piece Precision Shear™ Forstner Bit Set

Thank you for shopping with us!

This set contains the seven smallest sizes of our Precision Shear™ Forstner Bits. From the 1/4″ diameter to the 1″ diameter, these bits will drill flat bottom holes, pocket holes, or overlapping holes.

Application: Drills plywoods, hardwoods, and softwoods. Use in handheld drills and drill presses.

New Precision Shear™ Forstner Bits feature a double-ground, razor-sharp serrated edge that slices throughout the rotation of the bit for less splintering and chipping, producing flawless flat-bottom holes. This unique geometric design has multiple cutting edges that produce greater shearing action, allowing for faster rotational speeds and more efficient cutting.

Competitive forstner bit designs produce small chips and dust that collect in the cutting area, increasing friction and heat, thus causing the bit to dull quickly. Those designs also create holes with rough edges that require sanding.

In addition to serrated edges, Precision Shear™ Forstner Bits include:

Hardened Steel Body—warrants a longer life and sharper cutting edge.
Ultra Sharp Spur—ensures an accurate hold and resists “walking” on material.
Steep Angled Cutting Edges—produce holes that are smooth and flat, and create “chisel-like” curls for fast, clean chip removal.
Quality Forged Construction—instead of casting, strengthens bits for extended life.
