Draper 10573 Countersink Bit 16mm

This 16mm countersink bit is manufactured from special tool steel and hardened and tempered to 55HRC for durability and long life. It features a 90° head with a single finely ground fast-cutting edge, designed for clean and precise countersinking. Suitable for use on hard or softwood and plastics, it is ideal for creating neat countersinks for screws and fasteners. The shank diameter is 6mm and it is compatible with most standard hand and power drills, with no additional accessories required. To use, insert the countersink bit into the drill chuck and tighten securely, select the appropriate speed for the material, then use on wood or plastics to create a conical hole for screw heads, applying steady pressure while maintaining a consistent angle for best results.
