Freud BP80070L 8 mm (Dia.) Brad Point Bit
MPN: BP80070L
Minimum order quantity is .
Freud’s BP80070L 8 mm Brad Point Bit is built for pro-grade woodworking on multi-spindle machines. This industrial carbide-tipped bit combines precision with durability, delivering clean, true holes across a range of materials while withstanding the rigors of automatic or manual multi-spindle boring centers.
Key features that distinguish this bit:
- Diameter: 8 mm, a common size for furniture hardware, cabinet fittings, and precise joinery.
- Shank: 10 mm with an adjustable top screw, ensuring compatibility with most boring machines and quick, secure bit changes.
- Tip construction: Carbide-tipped brad point for reduced wandering and superior edge quality on entry, especially when starting holes in dense or tough materials.
- Material versatility: Designed to drill across composition materials, solid surface materials, plywoods, hardwoods, and softwoods, on both automatic and manual multi-spindle setups.
Why this bit matters for your shop
- Achieve consistently clean holes with minimal tear-out thanks to the brad point geometry and carbide durability, even in plywood and composite substrates.
- Maximize machine uptime with a shank and screw design that accommodates a wide range of boring centers, reducing setup time during production runs.
- Ideal for professionals in cabinetry, furniture fabrication, and door or panel assembly who rely on repeatable, precise boring in high-volume environments.
Practical use cases
- In cabinetmaking and kitchen installations, where accurate bore alignment is critical for hardware mounting and panel joinery.
- In furniture manufacturing, for drilled dowel or screw holes that require clean edges and consistent depth.
- For solid surface and plywood assemblies where edge quality affects fit and finish.
Pro tips for best results
- Ensure the adjustable top screw is properly secured to maintain hole alignment throughout the cut.
- Use the bit with compatible boring machines on steady feeds to preserve edge quality and extend carbide life.
- Inspect bits regularly for carbide wear and replace when cutting performance declines to maintain hole precision.
