Robert Bosch Tool Group FB700 7-piece Forstner Bit Set

Product Description

The ROBERT BOSCH TOOL GROUP FB700 is a 7-piece Forstner bit set designed for clean, flat-bottomed hole drilling in wood. The set includes bits in seven sizes: 1/4 inches, 3/8 inches, 1/2 inches, 5/8 inches, 3/4 inches, 7/8 inches, and 1 inch, all with a 1/4-inch shank. Chrome steel alloy construction allows the bits to withstand high drilling temperatures, reducing the risk of burning the workpiece. Brad point tips center each bit precisely before cutting begins. The set stores in an included wood case and is suited for use by carpenters, cabinetmakers, and woodworking tradespeople who need consistent, repeatable hole geometry.

The FB700 set is built for decorative woodworking, hinge boring, and general fine woodworking applications. The flat-bottomed cutting profile makes it well suited for mortising, shelf-pin drilling, and any application where a clean hole bottom is required. The 1/4-inch shank is compatible with both portable handheld drills and stationary drill press machines, giving installers flexibility across job site and shop setups.

Installation Notes

Installation of Forstner bits is typically performed by carpenters, cabinetmakers, or woodworking tradespeople. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent movement. When using a portable drill, start at low speed to allow the brad point to seat before increasing RPM. Always wear appropriate eye protection and ensure the bit shank is fully seated and tightened in the chuck before operation.
