FAQs

What kind of wood can I use these bits with?

These bits are designed for use with hardwoods, softwoods, and timber.

What drill type is required?

These bits are compatible with most standard drills. Ensure the drill chuck can accommodate the bit's shank size.

How do I prevent the bit from wandering?

Start with the spur tip firmly placed, and maintain a perpendicular angle to the wood surface. A pilot hole can also help.

How should I maintain the bits?

Clean the bits after each use with a brush or cloth to remove debris. Store them in a dry place and apply a light coat of oil to prevent rust.

What is the benefit of the spur tip?

The spur tip provides a clean and accurate start to the drilling process, minimizing wandering and splintering.

What if the bit gets stuck?

Reduce the drilling speed. Withdraw the bit slightly to clear wood shavings. If it remains stuck, use a wrench to remove it from the drill.

Are these bits suitable for professional use?

Yes, these bits are built to professional standards and designed for carpentry, joinery, fencing, and framing work.

Troubleshooting

Bit wandering or not starting straight.

Ensure the drill is perpendicular to the wood surface. Start with a pilot hole or apply firm, even pressure. Check that the spur tip is sharp.

Bit getting stuck in the wood.

Reduce drilling speed. Withdraw the bit slightly to clear the wood shavings. If necessary, use a wrench to remove the bit from the chuck.

Bit appears to be dulling quickly.

Reduce drilling speed. Ensure the bit is appropriate for the wood type (hardwoods require slower speeds). Check for any damage or wear on the cutting edges.
