Our high-carbon steel Forstner Bits are the top pick for smooth, flat-bottomed holes with clean sidewalls and no tearout. Forstner bits are exceptionally useful for angled drilling, overlapping holes, or whenever a precise diameter is essential. The outer cutting edge slices through the perimeter for an accurate, well-defined hole every time, while the center brad point ensures accurate placement without wandering. Perfect for doweling, mortising, pocket holes, cup hinge installation and more. Also available in imperial/standard sizes (sold separately).
