What Customers Are Saying
The adjustable countersink drill bit offers versatility with 3 different bit sizes to accommodate a range of screw sizes. The adjustable collar allows for easy control of the countersink depth, creating a professional-looking finish. Many users found it to be a time-saver, allowing them to drill and countersink in a single step. However, the drill bit can be prone to breaking or wearing out prematurely, especially on harder materials. Some users also experienced issues with the bit becoming loose or wobbly during use, affecting accuracy. Careful use and consideration of the bit's limitations are advised.

Would Not RecommendI drilled 2 holes in a board and on the third hole, the hex shank spun off the bit and made it worthless. I was very disappointed as I only bought one and had to drive 30 minutes one way to get a different brand. This delayed my project which was frustrating.

Poor quality
Would Not RecommendThis bit strips out where the hex shaft and bit attach and comes apart. The tip breaks easily as well. Other brands I have used don't do that.
From 9_SLASH_64-in 3.55mm #6 Standard High-speed steel Countersink Twist Drill Bit
Reasonably priced and works right.
Would RecommendInexpensive self centering 5/64 drill bit. Great for pre-drilling a flat head small wood screw.

All 7 pcs are defected. They will trembling when using. Your website can only upload picture, but I have one video on hand if you want to see it for reference. Also, it's not friendly for the return. Cannot get any label or barcode till over ten times try.

Check screw drill recommendations
Would RecommendI should have had a smaller dia bit for the drawer glides screws. Bit depth a little short. Fair price

It works but...
Would Not RecommendThe spring in this is so strong that it's difficult to push down while holding the bit and part in position. It wants to move the piece you are drilling the hole for and that defeats the purpose of a self-centering bit.

Works with some modifications…
Would Not RecommendFirst the hex Chuck adapter came off; fortunately it still works without it. Then the tip of the bit broke off. I was able to grind the point down so it still works. Only saving grace is that you can swap the countersink part over to another bit.

Nice set for almost any size screw
Would RecommendWhat I like: 3 bits to accommodate most typical screw sizes, Adjustable collar to adjust depth of plunge, Replaceable bits, Affordable price. What I don't like: Countersink heads do wear out, and work best on softer woods and composites.
