Forged Carbon Steel Forstner Bit Set – Imperial - 16 Piece

The WoodRiver® 16-Piece Forstner Bit Set combines Austrian-made craftsmanship with precision drilling performance for cabinetry, furniture making and general woodworking. Engineered to deliver clean, accurate flat-bottom holes, this premium wood drill bit set features a continuous rim-cutting design that reduces tear-out while producing smooth hole walls in hardwood, softwood, plywood and MDF. Each bit is forged from a single piece of carbon steel, creating a denser grain structure that supports long-lasting edge retention and consistent cutting capability. A performance-enhancing coating helps reduce wear and extends service life, while the center brad point starts precisely on target with minimal wandering. Internal chip lift and eject geometry efficiently remove chips from the cut, helping reduce heat and friction for smoother drilling and improved tool longevity. The precision-ground three-flat shank provides a secure grip in the chuck and helps eliminate slipping under torque. Size markings on each shank make bit identification easy when moving between operations. Suitable for hand drills and drill presses, this set delivers reliable results across a wide range of applications and makes an excellent addition to any collection of power tool accessories.Features: Forged from a single piece of carbon steel for enhanced edge retention Continuous rim design creates cleaner holes with reduced tear-out Center brad point starts accurately with minimal wandering Internal chip lift and eject design reduces heat and friction during drilling Performance-enhancing coating improves wear resistance and cutting life Three-flat shank helps eliminate chuck slip under torque Size marked on shank for quick bit identification Suitable for straight, angled and overlapping hole applications Drills clean flat-bottom holes in hardwood, softwood, plywood and MDF Custom wooden storage box keeps bits organized and protected Bits 1/2" or smaller have 1/4" shanks, bits 9/16" or larger have 3/8" shanks Bit Sizes Included: 16 pieces from 1/4" to 2-1/8" in 1/8" increments Made in Austria Specifications: Country Of Origin: Austria Material: Forged single-piece carbon steel Shank Style: Three-flat Overall Length: 3-1/2" Application Materials: Hardwood, softwood, plywood, MDF Compatible Tools: Hand drill/drill press What’s Included: (1) Wooden Box (16) Forstner Bits: 1/4" to 2-1/8" in 1/8" increments
