Distinguish blind-hole and through-hole requirements
Provide the required hole diameter, depth and material, including any facing or veneer. State whether the hole stops within the panel, breaks through it or receives a particular fitting. Point and cutting-edge designs vary, and the tool must be selected for the documented application rather than assuming every woodworking drill produces the same hole form.
Confirm rotation and the drilling-head connection
Include the machine or drilling-head model, required right-hand or left-hand rotation, shank dimensions and overall or working length. Preserve the manufacturer's rotation designation rather than identifying a tool solely by colour. Multi-spindle and quick-change arrangements need their actual interface checked, including any length-setting or adaptor requirements.
Send the existing boring-tool identity
For a repeat item, provide the complete code and any associated adaptor or countersink identity. For a new requirement, send the hole specification and relevant machine documentation. Working length and overall length are different measurements; use the dimensions defined by the manufacturer when checking drilling depth and assembly compatibility.
Questions about your requirement
Does this category include metalworking drills and taps?
This section is for woodworking CNC boring and drilling. Use Drills, Taps & Dies under CNC Parts for metalworking drilling and threading enquiries.
Can right-hand and left-hand boring bits be exchanged?
No. The specified cutting direction must match the intended spindle and tool documentation. Confirm rotation and the complete connection details before ordering.
