Constructed from high speed steel, it delivers consistent cutting performance across a wide range of wood types. The sharp center spur precisely locates the center point before the rim engages the material, reducing walkout and improving hole accuracy. This bit is suited for flat-bottom holes, pocket holes, and overlapping hole applications where a standard twist bit would fall short. It is a practical choice for trim carpenters, cabinet installers, millwork shops, and experienced DIYers working with wood framing, cabinetry, and finish materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe FB-009 is used in residential and light commercial woodworking applications where clean entry and a flat-bottomed bore are required. Typical scenarios include hinge mortising, shelf pin boring, pocket hole drilling, and dowel seat preparation. The 3\/8 inch shank fits standard drill chucks and drill press collets, making it easy to integrate into existing tool setups on the job site or in the shop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/4 inch cut diameter for flat-bottomed bores in wood and wood composites\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for durable, repeatable cutting performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSharp center spur for accurate hole location and reduced bit walkout\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for flat-bottom holes, pocket holes, and overlapping hole patterns\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch shank fits standard drill chucks and drill press setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-1\/2 inch overall length provides clearance in typical drilling configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style Forstner bit replacement compatible with standard 3\/8 inch drill chucks and drill press collets used in wood drilling applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is installed by woodworkers, finish carpenters, and cabinet professionals using a handheld drill or drill press. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent movement during the cut. When using a handheld drill, start at a low speed to allow the center spur to seat before increasing RPM. Wear appropriate eye protection and ensure the work area is clear of debris before operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCut Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.95 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: FREUD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: FB-009\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DIABLO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51563342364978,"sku":"FB-009","price":171.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c157649f060407574b93573728b6459a.jpg?v=1786495988","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/freud-fb-009-forstner-bit-1-1-4-in-high-speed-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
