Product Description
The Freud 8.2 mm Brad Point Bit is an industrial-grade carbide tipped boring bit engineered for precise, clean-entry holes in a wide range of wood and composite materials. Featuring a 10 mm shank with an adjustable top screw, this bit is compatible with most automatic and manual multi-spindle boring machines, as well as drill presses and hand held drills. Whether you are working with solid surface materials, veneered plywood, hardwoods, softwoods, or composites, this bit delivers consistent performance and extended tool life in demanding production environments.
Key Features
- Industrial carbide tips - provide superior hardness and wear resistance, extending tool life through high-volume boring cycles on composites, hardwoods, and softwoods.
- Left hand rotation (LH) - purpose-built for multi-spindle boring machines that require counterclockwise cutting, ensuring compatibility and accurate hole placement in cabinet and furniture production.
- 10 mm shank with adjustable top screw - makes this bit compatible with most boring machines without the need for adapters, saving setup time and reducing tooling costs.
- 8.2 mm diameter with a 70 mm overall length and 35 mm maximum hole depth - sized precisely for common cabinet hardware applications, delivering accurate bores without over-drilling.
- Freud Limited Lifetime Guarantee - backs the bit against defects, giving buyers long-term confidence in their tooling investment.
Why This Product
- The carbide tipped construction maintains a sharp cutting edge far longer than standard high-speed steel bits, making it a reliable choice for shops running continuous multi-spindle boring operations on hardwoods and engineered materials.
- The 10 mm shank with adjustable top screw removes the guesswork from machine compatibility - this bit is designed to fit most automatic and manual multi-spindle boring machines right out of the box.
- Left hand rotation is a specific requirement in many cabinet shop and furniture manufacturing setups, and this bit is built from the ground up to meet that need rather than being adapted from a standard right-hand design.
- At 8.2 mm diameter, this bit handles a precise boring size commonly used in furniture and cabinet construction, and Freud's carbide tipping ensures it performs consistently across composites, solid surface, veneered plywood, hardwoods, and softwoods.

Frequently Asked Questions
What machines is the Freud BP82070L compatible with?
This brad point bit is designed for multiple spindle machines and is supplied with a 10 mm shank and adjustable top screw, making it compatible with most automatic and manual multi-spindle boring machines. It can also be used with drill presses and hand held drills.
Why does this bit use left hand (LH) rotation?
The left hand rotation designation means this bit cuts in a counterclockwise direction. Many multi-spindle boring machines used in cabinet and furniture manufacturing require left hand rotating bits for specific spindle positions. Always verify your machine's spindle rotation direction before selecting a boring bit.
What materials can the Freud BP82070L bore through?
This bit is designed to drill composites, solid surface materials, veneered plywood, hardwoods, and softwoods. Its industrial carbide tips maintain cutting performance across this full range of materials in production boring applications.
What is the maximum hole depth this bit can achieve?
The Freud BP82070L has a maximum hole depth of 35 mm. The overall bit length is 70 mm with an 8.2 mm cutting diameter, making it well suited for standard cabinet hardware boring depths.
