Use with handheld power drills, drill presses, and in hammer drills. Drill holes using simultaneous rotary and hammering action to break masonry material into tiny granules. These bits drill faster and penetrate material with less pressure than rotary-only bits. Also called percussion or impact bits.

A more controlled chip removal reduces heat buildup, making these bits good for use on brittle material such as block and brick. Drill holes using simultaneous rotary and hammering action to break masonry material into tiny granules. This type of bit drills faster and penetrates material with less pressure than rotary-only bits. Also called percussion or impact bits.

Also known as spade bits, these have a centering point and two cutting edges for boring holes in hard and soft wood.

Carbide is harder, stronger, and more wear resistant than cobalt steel and high-speed steel for better performance on hard and abrasive materials. These countersinks require rigid tool holding to prevent breakage and are not for use with hand-held tools. The 60° countersink angle is compatible with the profile of centers on a lathe. They 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.

TiCN (titanium carbonitride) coated countersinks last longer than uncoated countersinks and are best for general purpose cuts as well as for use on aluminum.

TiAlN (titanium aluminum nitride) coated countersinks are the best choice for materials up to a Rockwell hardness of C50. They are not for use on aluminum.

AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride) coated countersinks are for high-speed machining on materials with a Rockwell hardness up to C70. They are not for use on aluminum.

For excellent performance on hard and abrasive materials, carbide is harder, stronger, and more wear resistant than high-speed steel. The countersinks in these sets require rigid tool holding to prevent breakage and are not for use with hand-held tools. All have a small drill point on the tip for drilling and countersinking holes with the same tool. The drill point creates a small pilot hole at the bottom of the countersunk hole to facilitate drilling. An 82° countersink angle is compatible with the profile of flat- and oval-head inch screws; a 90° countersink angle is compatible with the profile of flat- and oval-head metric screws and is also good for deburring. When one end of the countersink dulls, turn it around for a sharp cutting edge.
