FORSTNER BIT 54MM CARDED

Features

• 54 mm diameter — suitable for smaller joinery hardware, doweling, shelf pins and hinge cups.
• Heat-treated, precision ground body and cutting edges for better control and clean cuts.
• Designed to produce flat-bottom holes — helpful for flush fitting of hinge cups, shelf hardware and fittings.
• Carded pack format — gives easy storage, retrieval and retail display.

Benefits

• Clean finish: Forstner geometry allows precise boring without wander and produces minimal tear-out on timber surfaces.
• Versatile joinery use: Ideal for shelf supports, hinge cups, furniture fittings and other detailed woodworking tasks.
• Trade-friendly format: Carded packaging keeps the bit secure and visible for fast counter access and inventory.

Extra Information

• Use in a drill press or hand-drill with a depth stop for consistent hole depth and clean outcomes.
• Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped to avoid movement during boring; Forstner bits produce high side-load and need stable materials.

Specifications

Safety

• Wear eye and hearing protection when drilling; wood chips and debris may be thrown.
• Secure the workpiece firmly—Forstner bits generate high torque and side load, especially on larger diameters.
• Start with slower feed rate to ensure clean start; then increase speed once the bit has established the hole.
