The Freud Precision Shear 7-Piece Forstner Bit Set (1/4" to 1" Diameter) gives woodworkers a complete range of the seven smallest Forstner bit sizes in a single, professionally engineered kit. Crafted in Austria with quality forged construction, these bits are designed to cut flat-bottom holes, pocket holes, and overlapping holes in hardwoods, softwoods, veneered plywood, solid surface materials, and composites. Whether you are working at a drill press or using a hand held drill, the Freud Precision Shear series delivers the clean, precise results that demanding woodworking applications require.

Key Features

• Quality forged construction - extends the working life of each bit, reducing the need for frequent replacements on demanding or high-volume projects.
• Ultra sharp spur - ensures an accurate starting hole so the bit seats precisely where you need it, preventing drift and misalignment.
