    Drill-Point Countersinks for Screws

    Save time by drilling a pilot hole and countersinking in a single step. These countersinks have a small drill point to drill new pilot holes topped with cone-shaped recesses for screw heads.

    2 Flutes

    These versatile, wear-resistant countersinks cut cleanly in most materials, including plastic, aluminum, and steel.
    Titanium Nitride (TiN) Coated—Withstand heat, corrosion, and abrasion better than uncoated and black oxide countersinks, so they stay sharp over longer periods.
    Number of Flutes—Countersinks with fewer flutes are best for aggressive cutting. They leave more room for chips to clear, reducing friction and heat. Countersinks with more flutes spread the cut across more edges for better stability, a smoother finish, and longer tool life.

    Drill-Point Counterbore Sets

    Skip a step when installing screws of various thread diameters in metal. With a sharp point on the tip, these counterbores drill a pilot hole topped with a flat recess for the screw head. That's faster and more accurate than switching to a counterbore in between passes with your drill bit.
    High-Speed Steel—Durable and wear resistant, these counterbores make accurate cuts in most materials without chipping or cracking.

    Oversized Counterbores

    Designed to give screw heads a slightly loose fit, these counterbores are a bit wider than standard sizes. The extra clearance prevents binding and leaves room for a seal or O-ring around the screw head.

    Built-in-Pilot Counterbores

    A pilot centers these counterbores and prevents wobbling for an accurate cut on the first try. With dimensions that match standard screw-head diameters and thread diameters, they are your plug-and-play option for pilot-driven counterbores.
    Metric counterbores have undersized pilots to meet DIN standards.
