Troubleshooting
Bit not cutting smoothly
Ensure you are using the correct speed (low to medium) and applying light pressure. Check if the material being drilled is suitable for carbon steel bits. Clean the bit for any material buildup.
Bit seems to be overheating
Reduce the speed of your drill/driver immediately. Apply less pressure. Consider using a lubricant if drilling metal. Allow the bit to cool down before continuing.
Hex shank slipping in drill chuck
Ensure the drill chuck is clean and dry. Tighten the chuck firmly around the hex shank. For impact drivers, ensure the bit holder is in good condition.
Chamfer is uneven or rough
Ensure the drill is running at a consistent speed and the workpiece is stable. Advance the bit steadily into the material. The 5-flute design is intended for smoothness, so ensure no damage is present on the flutes.
