About Countersinks
Countersinks cut a cone-shaped opening to install screws and rivets flush with a surface or hold workpieces between centers on a lathe. They can also be used for chamfering and deburring.

The 60° countersink angle is compatible with the profile of centers on a lathe. These countersinks have a small drill point on the tip for drilling and countersinking holes with the same tool. The drill point creates a small gap that prevents damage to the points of live or dead centers. Turn the countersink around for a sharp cutting edge when one end dulls.
