Introducing the Diablo FB-015 2" Forstner Bit for Wood — a purpose-built solution for woodworkers who demand clean, precise large-diameter holes. Built under the trusted Freud/Diablo lineage, this bit is engineered to keep pace with demanding projects and finish-grade results.

Featured as a 2" high-speed steel Forstner bit, it’s designed to handle straight, angled, and overlapping holes across all types of wood. Whether you’re drilling through hardwoods for a dowel joinery system, trimming a pocket for hardware installation, or creating decorative inlays, this bit delivers consistent, flat-bottom cuts with minimal fuss.

  • 2-inch diameter high-speed steel bit for efficient material removal and lasting sharpness.
  • Double-ground serrated edge reduces splintering and chipping, producing cleaner edges on both hardwoods and softwoods.
  • Versatile drilling geometry supports straight, angled, and overlapping holes for complex joinery and large-diameter bore tasks.
  • Compatible with all wood types, including plywoods and veneers, while preserving edge quality and accuracy.
  • Ideal for cabinetmaking, furniture construction, hidden hardware installation, and decorative inlays where precise, large holes matter.

Why this bit stands out: the combination of a robust high-speed steel body and the double-ground serrated edge minimizes wander and tear-out, translating to faster workflow, less touch-up, and a cleaner final piece. It’s a reliable workhorse that stays sharp longer, even through dense lumber and repeated reuse.

Practical tips for best results:

  • Secure the workpiece firmly and use steady, controlled feeds—especially when starting through end grain or dense sections.
  • Use a slow to moderate drill speed and back off if you sense heat buildup to extend blade life.
  • Operate with a backing board to reduce tear-out on exit and achieve pristine edges.
  • For precision depth, pair with a drill press or fence-guided setup to maintain alignment across multiple holes.

Designed for serious woodworkers who insist on clean, accurate perforations, the Diablo FB-015 2" Forstner Bit for Wood is a pragmatic choice for durable performance and consistently professional results in every project.
