How to Use the AM TECH 3PC Countersink Bit Set

Introduction

The AM TECH 3PC Countersink Bit Set is designed to create a conical hole in materials such as wood, metal, and plastic, allowing the head of a screw or bolt to sit flush with or below the surface. Follow these instructions for safe and effective use.

Tools and Materials Needed

• AM TECH 3PC Countersink Bit Set
• Drill or drill press
• Safety goggles
• Workpiece (wood, metal, plastic, etc.)
• Clamps (optional, for securing the workpiece)

Safety Precautions

• Wear safety goggles to protect your eyes from debris.
• Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped down to prevent movement.

Step 3: Position the Workpiece

• Place the workpiece on a stable surface.
• If necessary, use clamps to hold the workpiece securely.

Step 4: Begin Drilling

• Align the tip of the countersink bit with the pilot hole where the screw will be inserted.
• Start the drill at a low speed to prevent slipping and ensure accuracy.
• Gradually increase the speed as the bit begins to cut into the material.

Step 5: Create the Countersink

• Drill to the desired depth, ensuring the countersink is deep enough for the screw head to sit flush or below the surface.
• Periodically check the depth to avoid over-drilling.

Step 6: Finish
