FLAT WOOD DRILL BIT ROSSEL

Product Description

The Rossel Flat Wood Drill Bit is a paddle‑style (spade) woodworking bit designed for fast, efficient drilling of medium‑sized holes in wood and timber materials. It’s ideal for general carpentry, joinery, DIY and construction tasks where you need quick clearance holes for fixtures, wiring, dowels or simple through‑holes. Flat wood bits like this have a broad cutting head with dual cutting edges and a central tip for steady starts and rapid chip removal.

Key Benefits and Features

• Fast material removal: Flat/paddle design quickly bores holes in softwood, hardwood, plywood and chipboard.
• Central point for accuracy: Helps start through wood without wandering, improving hole alignment.
• Efficient chip clearance: Wide flute and bit shape lift wood chips out of the hole, reducing binding and heat.
• Durable steel construction: Typical spade bits are made from hardened carbon or high‑speed steel to resist wear during repeated use.
• Secure fit: Often supplied with a 1/4″ hex shank (standard for this style) for secure grip in drill chucks and quick‑change holders.
• Versatile woodworking use: Great for installing locks, door hardware, running cables or pipes through timber, and general carpentry drilling.
