DESCRIPTION
The Planet Forstner Extension Bars are specifically crafted to be used with Planet Forstner bits. They come with 3 grub screws and an allen key. Thanks to their top - notch, sturdy build and design, these bars allow Forstner bits, even up to 4' in diameter, to drill deeper holes in your workpieces. Made from high - quality steel with a one - piece design, they prevent the shank from coming loose from the socket. Manufactured in the UK by Planet Plus Ltd. For Forstner Bit sizes ranging from 3/8 to 2, opt for the 3/8 Shank Extension Bar (8 / 200mm Long): FE20038.
Using the Planet Forstner Extension Bar is easy. First, make sure you pick the right extension bar for your Forstner bit size. If your bit is between 3/8 and 2, go for the 3/8 Shank Extension Bar (8 /200mm Long). Attach the extension bar to your Forstner bit using the 3 grub screws provided and the allen key. Then, you're ready to drill deeper holes in your workpieces. When using it, don't apply too much force at once. Start with a gentle pressure and gradually increase it. As for maintenance, keep the bar clean after each use. Wipe off any dust or debris. Also, store it in a dry place to prevent rust. If you notice any looseness in the shank, check the grub screws and tighten them with the allen key.
