Freud 1-1/8 in. Precision Forstner Bit features a new Precision Shear design with a double-ground, razor-sharp serrated edge that slices smoothly throughout the rotation of the bit, minimizing splintering and chipping to produce flat-bottom holes. Its unique geometric design includes multiple cutting edges that enhance shearing action, allowing for faster rotational speeds and more efficient cutting. Unlike competitive Forstner bits that generate small chips and dust leading to increased friction, heat, and quicker dulling, this bit maintains sharpness longer and creates holes with smooth edges that require no sanding. The bit is crafted with quality forged construction for extended life and includes an ultra-sharp spur to ensure an accurate starting hole. Its steep angled cutting edges produce smooth, flat holes and create chisel-like curls for fast, clean chip removal. Backed by Freud's Limited Lifetime , this bit is designed for precision and durability in woodworking projects.
