The Freud 9 mm Brad Point Bit is a premium, industrial-grade carbide tipped boring bit built for demanding multi-spindle boring operations. Engineered for precision drilling in cabinet making, furniture manufacturing, and woodworking production environments, this bit delivers clean, accurate holes through a wide range of wood-based and engineered materials - from hardwoods and softwoods to composites, solid surface panels, and veneered plywood. With a 10 mm shank fitted with an adjustable top screw, it integrates seamlessly with most automatic or manual multi-spindle boring machines, as well as drill presses and hand-held drills.

Key Features

• Industrial carbide tips - provide exceptional hardness and wear resistance, extending bit life far beyond standard high-speed steel alternatives in production environments
• 10 mm shank with adjustable top screw - ensures broad compatibility with most boring machines, reducing the need for adapters or specialty tooling
• Right hand (RH) rotation - matches the standard spindle direction of most multi-spindle boring machines and drill presses for reliable, safe operation
• 9 mm cutting diameter - delivers precise, consistent bore sizing critical for dowel joinery, shelf pin holes, and hinge cup preparations
• 27 mm maximum hole depth - accommodates common cabinetry and furniture boring depths in a single clean pass
• 57.5 mm overall length - provides the reach needed for multi-spindle machine tool holders while maintaining rigidity and runout control
• Freud Limited Lifetime Guarantee - backs the bit against defects, giving buyers confidence in long-term value and performance

Why This Product

• Designed specifically for multi-spindle boring machines, this bit eliminates the compatibility guesswork common with generic brad point bits - the 10 mm shank with adjustable top screw fits most production boring machines right out of the box
• Carbide tipped construction means the cutting edge stays sharper longer when boring composites, solid surface materials, and hardwoods - reducing downtime and tool change frequency in high-volume shop environments
• The brad point tip geometry produces clean entry holes with minimal tear-out in veneered plywood and hardwood panels, reducing finishing labor and material waste
• Backed by Freud's Limited Lifetime Guarantee, this bit represents a reliable long-term tooling investment for professional woodworking and cabinet production operations
