Torquata Tungsten-Carbide Forstner Boring Drill Bits 10mm Shank

Torquata TCT Boring Bits are super-tough Forstners that will outlast high speed steel bits by miles, even in the hardest, gnarliest Australian timbers. Delivering accurate, clean results under extreme drilling conditions, they are the perfect bit for jobs requiring multiple holes in challenging material.

Available in a range of diameters, please select your preferred option.

When Benjamin Forstner invented his namesake drill bit way back in 1886, he never imagined this! By combining traditional Forstner bit geometry with modern tungsten carbide technology, Torquata have developed the perfect drilling solution for Australian woodworkers. 

All sizes feature a 10mm shank. 

Precision 

Each Torquata TCT Boring Bit is manufactured to exacting tolerances to deliver outstanding accuracy. Vibration and runout is non-existent, giving you clean, smooth holes. The traditional Forstner rim has been redesigned – two tungsten carbide scribes slice the grain without chatter, ensuring speed and accuracy.  

Durability

Tungsten Carbide will stay sharp long after standard high speed steel has become unusably blunt – even in the most difficult Australian and exotic timbers. Torquata TCT Boring Bits reduce your downtime and overheads, delivering excellent value and reliability. 

Coolness

Heat is the enemy of cutting tools, deforming their edges and making them blunt. Tungsten carbide resists heat far better than high speed steel, giving you a longer-lasting edge. And the unique design of Torquata TCT boring bits creates a clearance between the bit wall and the inside of the hole, reducing friction and heat buildup. No more smoking or scorched holes! 

Speed

Because Torquata TCT Boring Bits run cooler, they can be run at a faster RPM and fed more firmly into the workpiece. And because of the redesigned rim, their chip ejection is much better than traditional Forstners. You no longer need to pull the bit from the workpiece to clear the chips multiple times per hole. Torquata saves you time and boosts your productivity.
