Precision-ground High Speed Steel keeps sharp edges longer, resisting wear and overheating Center brad point provides exact, instant centering and guides the bit through the cut Angled cutting spurs cut quickly and produce clean, precise diameter holes in any type of wood.

1) Submitted by Mike A., from St. Louis, MO on 4/2/2009 Customer Rating: The product was just what I needed and shipping was fast. Rockler has good products and service.

2) Submitted by Richard Smith, from Jonesboro, AR on 3/21/2009 Customer Rating: Drills a perfect hole for my duck call blanks. Works so much better than the jobber bits I tried prior to the brad point. Works great for my application!

3) Submitted by Jeff Teutsch, from Santa Fe, NM on 11/6/2008 Customer Rating: The bit created a sloppy hole (from a very powerful and accurate floor drill press. The bit also burned badly in every wood I tried (maple, walnut, padauk etc.)

4) Submitted by Lowell Salandra, from Morris, IL on 11/1/2008 Customer Rating: Gave me a perfect hole to mount my barrel hinges.

5) Submitted by Malcolm McIntosh, from Rochester, MN on 5/20/2008 Customer Rating: All the brad point bits I bought produced holes at least 1/32” larger than the bit diameter. This is not precise enough for my application. A 5 mm end mill bit produced holes approximately 0.005” to 0.010” larger than the measured bit diameter in my drill press.

6) Submitted by Dave C., from Hurricane, UT on 10/1/2008 Customer Rating: This bit drilled oversized holes. It is not straight and wobbles as you start to drill the hole.

7) Submitted by Ken, from St. Maries, ID on 7/6/2009 Customer Rating: I've had many different sets of bradpoint bits and use them every day in my work. These bits are good, but far from the best I have. These run hotter and do not do a great job of scoring without some minor chips and don't pull the wood from the hole quickly causeing some over heating.
