Freud 3/16" (Dia.) Brad Point Bit is a precision-engineered carbide-tipped boring bit built for demanding woodworking and cabinet production environments. Featuring industrial carbide tips and a 10mm shank with an adjustable top screw, this bit is fully compatible with most automatic and manual multi-spindle boring machines, as well as drill presses and hand-held drills. Designed to cut cleanly through composites, solid surface materials, veneered plywood, hardwoods, and softwoods, this brad point bit delivers clean entry holes with minimal tear-out - making it a reliable choice for high-volume drilling applications where accuracy and tool life matter.

Key Features

• Industrial carbide tips - engineered for superior performance and maximum tool life, reducing downtime and replacement costs in production environments.
• 10mm shank with adjustable top screw - ensures compatibility with most automatic and manual multi-spindle boring machines, so you can integrate this bit without modifying your existing setup.
• 3/16" cutting diameter with a 70mm overall length and 35mm maximum hole depth - provides precise sizing for cabinet assembly, joinery, and component boring tasks.
• Right-hand rotation design - matches standard drill press and multi-spindle machine spindle direction, allowing drop-in use without reverse-rotation setups.
• Brad point tip geometry - centers accurately on the workpiece and reduces walking at the start of a cut, giving you cleaner, more consistent holes in wood and wood-composite materials.
• Compatible with composites, solid surface, veneered plywood, hardwoods, and softwoods - versatile enough to handle a wide range of panel and lumber materials on the same machine.
• Freud Limited Lifetime Guarantee - backs the bit against defects, giving you long-term confidence in the tool's construction and value.
