Freud Carbide Tipped Boring Bit Countersinks - 15.5 mm Diameter are built to handle the most demanding industrial boring applications with precision and consistency. Engineered by Freud, these 82 deg. countersinks slip directly over the body of your boring bits and lock firmly in place using a set screw, making setup fast and secure on automatic or manual multi-spindle boring machines. Designed for left-hand rotation and compatible with a wide range of materials including hardwoods, softwoods, veneered plywood, composites, and solid surface materials, this carbide tipped countersink delivers clean, accurate results in high-production woodworking and cabinet manufacturing environments.

Key Features

• Thick micrograin carbide tips - maintain a sharp cutting edge longer under heavy industrial use, reducing downtime for tool changes
• Precision machined construction - ensures consistent, accurate countersink geometry for clean, repeatable results across production runs
• High production industrial grade - built to withstand the rigors of automated multi-spindle boring operations without premature wear
• Left-hand rotation (LH) - correctly matched to left-hand boring machine spindles so the bit cuts cleanly without pulling or chipping
• Slip-over set screw mounting - installs quickly over the body of existing boring bits for a secure, tool-ready fit with minimal setup time
• 82 deg. countersink angle - designed to produce correctly angled seat profiles for fasteners in woodworking and panel applications
• Freud Limited Lifetime Guarantee - provides long-term confidence in the product's performance and durability

Why This Product

• The 15.5 mm diameter and 5 mm inside diameter are sized specifically for use with carbide tipped boring bits on multi-spindle boring machines, making this a purpose-matched accessory rather than a general-purpose tool.
• Thick micrograin carbide tips combined with precision machining mean fewer interruptions in high-production environments where consistency and cut quality across every workpiece matter.
• The simple slip-over design with set screw retention lets operators mount and secure the countersink to their existing boring bits quickly, keeping machine downtime low during setup or bit changes.
• Freud's Limited Lifetime Guarantee backs this countersink for the long term, making it a reliable investment for shops working regularly with hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, composites, and solid surface panels.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of boring machine is this countersink designed for?

This Freud carbide tipped boring bit countersink is designed for use with carbide tipped boring bits on automatic or manual multi-spindle boring machines. It slips over the body of the boring bit and is secured with a set screw.

What is the rotation direction of the Freud 7010L, and why does it matter?

The Freud 7010L has left-hand (LH) rotation. This is important because using a countersink with the wrong rotation direction on your machine's spindle can result in poor cut quality, chipping, or damage to the workpiece. Always match the countersink rotation to your boring machine's spindle direction.

What materials can this boring bit countersink be used on?

This countersink is suitable for use on veneered plywood, hardwoods, softwoods, composites, and solid surface materials, making it a versatile accessory for cabinetry and panel processing work.

What warranty does Freud provide on this countersink?

Freud backs the 7010L carbide tipped boring bit countersink with their Limited Lifetime Guarantee, providing long-term assurance of the product's quality and performance under normal industrial use.
