Key Features
- 5 adapters included (3 right-hand, 2 left-hand) - provides versatile boring configurations for both hinge orientations on a single job, reducing the need for separate tooling setups.
- System 32mm compatibility - bores holes precisely on the 32mm grid standard used in European-style cabinetry, ensuring consistent spacing and alignment across cabinet runs.
- Universal hinge boring system design - works with any hinge brand, giving fabricators and installers the flexibility to use whatever hardware their project or client requires.
- Innovative 3 spindle-head design - allows multiple holes to be bored in a single operation, speeding up production and improving repeatability compared to single-bit drilling.
- Compatible with hand drill and drill press - adapts to the tools already in your shop, making it accessible for both field installation and bench-top production work.
Why This Product
- Fabricators who produce European-style frameless cabinetry need precise, repeatable 32mm grid boring - this system delivers that accuracy with a dedicated boring head rather than manual layout and single-bit drilling.
- With 5 adapters covering both right-hand and left-hand orientations, one boring head handles the full range of hinge positions on a cabinet door or panel, eliminating the cost of purchasing multiple separate tools.
- The system is designed to accept bits for boring holes compatible with any hinge brand, making it a long-term investment that is not locked into a single hardware manufacturer's product line.
- The 3 spindle-head construction allows multiple hinge holes to be bored simultaneously, directly reducing cycle time in production environments where volume and consistency are priorities.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is System 32mm and why does it matter for cabinet making?
System 32mm is a standardized European cabinet construction method where shelf pin holes, hinge cup holes, and other hardware mounting points are laid out on a 32mm grid. This boring head is specifically designed to bore holes that conform to that grid, ensuring hardware aligns correctly and interchangeably across a cabinet project.
Does this boring head work with any hinge brand?
Yes. The CMT333 hinge boring system is described as a universal hinge boring system, meaning it is designed to bore holes compatible with any hinge brand - giving you the freedom to use the hardware of your choice without being limited to a single manufacturer.
Are bits included with this boring head?
No, bits are sold separately. The CMT333-325 includes the boring head and the 5 adapters (3 right-hand and 2 left-hand), but boring bits must be purchased independently for use with the system.
What machines can I use this boring head with?
The CMT333-325 is compatible with a hand drill and a drill press, making it flexible enough for both portable field use and stationary bench-top production workflows.
