Product Description
Freud 10 mm Brad Point Bit (BP10057L) is an industrial-grade carbide tipped boring bit engineered for use in multiple spindle boring machines, delivering precise, clean holes through a wide range of wood-based and composite materials. With a 10 mm diameter and left-hand rotation, this bit is purpose-built for automatic or manual multi-spindle boring operations where accuracy and extended tool life are critical. Whether you are working with hardwoods, softwoods, veneered plywood, solid surface materials, or composites, this Freud boring bit provides the consistent performance that production woodworking environments demand.
Key Features
- Industrial carbide tips - resist wear and heat buildup during high-volume boring operations, extending the usable life of the bit well beyond what standard high-speed steel tips offer.
- Left-hand (LH) rotation - matched to left-hand spindle positions on multi-spindle boring machines, ensuring proper chip ejection and clean entry holes on the correct side of the workpiece.
- 10 mm shank with adjustable top screw - provides compatibility with most boring machines, making this bit easy to install and reposition without additional adapters.
- 27 mm maximum hole depth - suited for standard panel boring tasks such as shelf pin holes, hinge cup preparation, and joinery boring in cabinet production.
- 57.5 mm overall length - provides the reach needed for typical multi-spindle machine setups while maintaining rigidity and minimizing deflection during the cut.
- Freud Limited Lifetime Guarantee - backs the bit against defects, giving buyers long-term confidence in their tooling investment.
- Designed for superior performance and maximum life - reduces downtime and replacement frequency in demanding production environments.
Why This Product
- If your operation relies on multi-spindle boring machines for cabinet, furniture, or panel production, this bit is specifically engineered for that application - not adapted from a general-purpose drill bit - giving you reliable results across composites, solid surface, veneered plywood, hardwoods, and softwoods.
- The carbide-tipped construction means you spend less time changing bits and more time producing, which is a direct advantage in high-throughput shop environments where downtime is costly.
- The 10 mm shank with an adjustable top screw makes this bit compatible with most standard boring machines, so you are not locked into proprietary tooling systems or specialty adapters.
- Backed by Freud's Limited Lifetime Guarantee, this boring bit represents a lower-risk tooling choice for shops looking to maintain consistent quality without frequent replacement costs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What machines is this brad point bit compatible with?
This bit is designed for multiple spindle boring machines and is compatible with most boring machines thanks to its 10 mm shank and adjustable top screw. It can also be used with a drill press or hand held drill for versatility in the shop.
Why does this bit have left-hand (LH) rotation?
Left-hand rotation is required for left-hand spindle positions on multi-spindle boring machines. Using the correct rotation direction ensures proper chip clearance, clean hole entry, and prevents the bit from backing out of the chuck during operation. Always confirm your machine's spindle direction before selecting a bit.
What materials can this bit bore through?
This bit is rated for composites, solid surface materials, veneered plywood, hardwoods, and softwoods. Its industrial carbide tips are built to handle the abrasive nature of composite and solid surface materials that would quickly dull standard high-speed steel bits.
What does Freud's Limited Lifetime Guarantee cover?
Freud offers a Limited Lifetime Guarantee on this brad point boring bit, providing buyers with long-term assurance against manufacturing defects. This guarantee reflects the brand's confidence in the durability and quality of the carbide-tipped construction designed for superior performance and maximum life.
