Dewalt DW1710 Brad Point Drill Bit 3/8 Inch

Product Description

The DEWALT DW1710 is a 3/8-inch brad point drill bit designed for clean, accurate hole entry in wood, composites, and similar materials. Brad point geometry features a center spur that registers the bit on the workpiece before the cutting edges engage, preventing walking and producing a flat-bottomed entry. The result is a cleaner bore with minimal tear-out at the surface. This bit is sold individually and is a standard addition to any carpenter, finish installer, or woodworking tradesperson's kit where precision hole placement matters.

The DW1710 is suited for residential and light commercial woodworking applications, including cabinet installation, trim carpentry, door hardware prep, and general framing where clean through-holes or stopped holes are needed in wood-based substrates. It is compatible with standard drill chucks that accept a 3/8-inch shank and can be driven by corded or cordless drill/drivers operating at appropriate speeds for the material.

Key Features

• 3/8-inch diameter brad point geometry for precise hole registration and reduced walking
• Center spur design minimizes surface tear-out on wood and composite materials
• Sold individually, making it easy to replace a single worn or damaged bit
• Compatible with standard 3-jaw chucks on corded and cordless drills

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standalone bit for use with standard drill chucks accepting a 3/8-inch shank across common corded and cordless drill platforms.

Installation Notes

Installation of this bit is performed by woodworking tradespeople and general contractors using standard drill equipment. Ensure the drill is powered off and the trigger is locked before inserting or removing the bit from the chuck. Set drill speed appropriate to the material being bored — lower speeds are generally preferred for larger diameter bits in hardwoods to reduce heat buildup and prolong cutting edge life. Always use appropriate eye protection when drilling.
