    Shown with Carbide Inserts

    (Sold Separately)

    When you need to drill dozens or even hundreds of holes, use a bit with replaceable carbide inserts. Once the cutting edges wear down, just change the inserts instead of sharpening or throwing the bit away. The holes in the bit channel coolant through the tool for more efficient chip evacuation. Also known as indexable drill bits.
    Each drill bit requires two inserts—one on the inner cutting edge and one on the outer cutting edge. Replacement inserts are sold separately.

    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.

    Durable and wear resistant, these counterbores make accurate cuts in most materials without chipping or cracking.
    Titanium Nitride (TiN) Coated—Withstand heat, corrosion, and abrasion for longer than uncoated counterbores, so the cutting edges stay sharper.

    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.

    Reamers

    Finish holes to precise inch, metric, wire gauge, or letter sizes with these reamers.
    Adjustable Size, Square Shank
    Finish multiple hole sizes with one reamer by moving the adjustable blades within the diameter range. Convenient for maintenance work, these have a large diameter range and don't require powered tools. They're often used to make precise size adjustments during installation of bearings and bushings.
    Move the blades by tightening and loosening the two nuts on the reamer. To measure size, adjust blades to a known size (such as a bushing or ring), or measure across two opposite blades with a micrometer. When the blades become worn, they can be reground or replaced.
    Turn these reamers by hand with an adjustable wrench or straight-handle tap wrench (sold separately).
    Extension pilots (not included) can be used in place of the end adjustment nut to align holes that are spaced far apart.
    Straight Blade—Use these reamers in straight holes that don't have a keyway or other breaks in the surface.
    Angled Blade—These reamers are better than those with straight blades for finishing holes with breaks in the surface, such as a keyway.
    High-Speed Steel—Durable and wear resistant, these are good for general purpose reaming in most materials.
    Tool Steel—Typically more economical but less durable than high-speed steel, these are for general purpose reaming.
