DESCRIPTION
The Planet Lip and Spur drill bits are the top - choice for wood drilling. Their steeper helix angle compared to standard drill bits, along with deeper flutes, allows for rapid waste clearance. This combination enables quick and clean cuts in wood. The brad point tip guarantees straight and precise drilling, while the sharp spurs minimize grain tear - out, leaving a clean edge. These 5mm drill bits come in a pack of 5 (LSHSS5) and are perfect for use with doweling jigs.
Using these Planet Lip and Spur drill bits is easy. First, make sure you've selected the right drill for the job. Insert the 5mm drill bit securely into the drill chuck. Mark the spot on the wood where you want to drill. Hold the drill firmly and start at a slow speed, then gradually increase it as the bit starts to penetrate the wood. This helps ensure a straight and accurate hole. When using with doweling jigs, follow the jig's instructions for proper alignment. As for maintenance, after each use, wipe the drill bits clean with a dry cloth to remove any wood chips or debris. You can also use a light oil to prevent rusting. Store them in a dry place, away from moisture. If you notice the bits are getting dull, it's time to replace them for the best results.
