The Freud 1/2 in. Brad Point Bit (BP12770R) is an industrial-grade boring bit engineered for demanding multi-spindle drilling operations in professional woodworking and cabinet manufacturing environments. Built with carbide tips and a precision-ground brad point geometry, this bit delivers clean, accurate entry holes and extended service life when boring into composites, solid surface materials, veneered plywood, hardwoods, and softwoods. The 10mm shank with an adjustable top screw ensures broad compatibility with automatic and manual multi-spindle boring machines, making it a reliable choice for high-volume production shops.

Key Features

• Industrial carbide tips - provide exceptional hardness and wear resistance, enabling consistent performance across high-volume boring runs without frequent bit replacement.
• 10mm shank with adjustable top screw - ensures secure, precise mounting in most boring machines, reducing setup time and minimizing bit movement during operation.
• Brad point tip geometry - delivers accurate, splinter-free entry points on wood-based and composite materials, resulting in cleaner holes and reduced material waste.
• Right hand (RH) rotation - matches the standard spindle direction of most drill presses and hand held drills, ensuring immediate compatibility without special setup.
• 70mm overall length with a 27mm maximum hole depth - gives operators the reach needed for standard boring applications while maintaining bit rigidity and control.
• Compatible with drill press and hand held drill - offers versatility for both bench-mounted production use and on-the-spot drilling tasks.
• Freud Limited Lifetime Guarantee - backs the bit against defects, providing long-term value and confidence in the investment.
