DESCRIPTION
The Planet Lip and Spur drill bits are a top choice for drilling wood. Compared to standard drill bits, they feature a steeper helix angle and deeper flutes. The steeper helix angle allows for faster and cleaner cutting, while the deeper flutes quickly clear away waste. The brad point tip ensures straight and accurate drilling, and the sharp spurs reduce grain tear - out, leaving a clean edge. These 10mm single drill bits, coded LSHSS10, are perfect for use with doweling jigs.
Using these Planet Lip and Spur drill bits is easy. First, make sure your drill is set to an appropriate speed for wood drilling. Insert the 10mm drill bit into the drill chuck firmly. Mark the spot on the wood where you want to drill. Start the drill and apply gentle pressure to begin drilling. The brad point tip will help keep the drill straight. As you drill, the deeper flutes will quickly clear the waste. When using with doweling jigs, ensure the bit fits properly in the jig. For maintenance, after each use, wipe the drill bit clean with a dry cloth to remove any wood debris. Store it in a dry place to prevent rusting. If the bit becomes dull, you can use a sharpening tool designed for drill bits to restore its cutting edge.
