Workshop Heaven 90mm Swedish Carbon Steel Forstner Bit
Forstner bits produce clean, flat bottomed holes, ideal for joinery and hardware installation and in most workshops are the only viable way of drilling large diameter holes.These bits are made from Swedish high carbon tool steel and have saw teeth around the perimiter to reduce heat build up. Like all tools they need to be kept sharp but this isn’t difficult to do.
Heat is your worst enemy when using forstners, but if you take your time, use slow drill speeds (500rpm and below) and touch up the cutting edges at the first sign of burning they work a treat.
Best used in a drill press or with a drilling guide.
