Milwaukee 48-15-0500 Brad Point Drill Bit 1/2 Inch 3 Pack

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE ELECTRIC TOOL CORP 48-15-0500 is a 1/2 inch brad point drill bit sold in a 3-pack, designed for accurate, clean-entry boring in wood and wood-composite materials. The brad point tip centers the bit on contact, reducing drift and tear-out at the entry surface. At 1/2 inch diameter, this bit handles dowel holes, hinge bores, and cable pass-throughs common in millwork, cabinetry, and rough framing. Carpenters, electricians, and general contractors reach for brad point bits when a standard twist bit would walk or splinter the workstock.

This 3-pack suits job sites and service vehicles where bit loss or wear is a routine cost. The 1/2 inch diameter is a common size in residential and light commercial work, used for wood framing penetrations, furniture construction, and pre-drilling for fasteners. The bits are compatible with standard 3/8 inch and 1/2 inch keyed or keyless drill chucks and most corded or cordless drill drivers with sufficient torque for 1/2 inch boring.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/2 inch brad point drill bit compatible with corded and cordless drills equipped with 3/8 inch or 1/2 inch keyed or keyless chucks.

Installation Notes

Brad point bits are installed and removed by a licensed carpenter, electrician, or general tradesperson using a standard drill chuck key or keyless mechanism. Secure the bit fully in the chuck before operation to prevent slipping under load. Always wear eye protection when drilling, and back the workpiece to minimize exit-side blowout. Bits should be inspected for tip damage before each use and replaced when the center point or cutting spurs show visible wear.
