Freud PB-010 1-3/8" (Dia.) Forstner Bit
MPN: PB-010
Minimum order quantity is .
Meet the Freud PB-010 1-3/8" Forstner Bit — the precision tool woodworkers reach for when clean, flat-bottom holes matter. This bit is engineered to deliver flawless results with less effort, even in tough woods and veneers.
Precision Shear technology powers every cut. The double-ground, razor-sharp serrated edge slices through the wood as it rotates, delivering multiple cutting edges that increase shearing action. The payoff is faster, more efficient cutting with dramatically reduced splintering and chipping, so you get pristine holes that need little to no sanding.
Why this design stands out
- Precision Shear edge: a serrated, double-ground geometry that creates smoother cuts and superior edge quality at higher rotational speeds.
- Multiple cutting edges for greater shearing action: converts more of the bit’s rotation into clean material removal, reducing dwell time and heat buildup.
- Minimized chip buildup and heat: innovative geometry reduces chips collecting in the cut, lowering friction and preserving bit life.
- Flawless flat-bottom holes: ideal for dowels, hinges, drawer pulls, and precise joinery where a perfectly flat base is essential.
Practical use cases
From cabinetmaking to furniture construction, the PB-010 excels whenever you need clean, accurate holes without ragged edges. Use it in a drill press or a stable handheld drill with steady feed, and rely on this bit to deliver repeatable results on both softwoods and hardwoods.
Who benefits most
Woodworkers, cabinetry specialists, hobbyists building DIY furniture, and professionals who demand precision in joinery will appreciate the PB-010’s ability to produce consistent, high-quality holes with less sanding and rework.
