Wood Drill Bits

Wood is one of the most common materials to work with for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. While it is incredibly versatile, it can quickly become fragile once you start cutting and drilling it, which is why you need specialised tools.

Wood drill bits are specially designed to ensure the material is protected during the drilling process. They contain unique features such as:

• A centring point to prevent slipping.
• Cutting edges that score the wood to stop it splintering.
• Specialist coatings and materials to reduce heat.
