Famag Bormax³ Carbide-Tipped Forstner Bits

Bormax³ Carbide Tipped Forstner Bits: Superior German Engineering and Long-Lasting Performance 

Unmatched Durability and Precision 

Bormax³ Carbide Tipped Forstner Bits from Famag are meticulously engineered in Germany using premium alloy tool steel and a black oxide finish. This high-quality construction provides superior corrosion resistance and reduces pitch buildup, ensuring your tools stay sharp and effective.  

With a thick micro-grain carbide layer, these bits maintain a sharp cutting edge up to ten times longer than standard tool steel, making them a top choice for professional woodworkers and DIY enthusiasts alike. 

• Clean, Tear-Free Cuts with Advanced Raking Tooth Design

Each Bormax³ Forstner bit features a precision carbide raking tooth positioned directly behind the main cutting edge, delivering clean and splinter-free holes. This design prevents tear-out when entering and exiting your stock, giving you flawless cuts every time.

• High RPM Capability and Versatile Performance

Built for versatility, Bormax³ Forstner Bits work efficiently in various materials, including softwoods, hardwoods, particleboard, and melamine. They perform exceptionally well at higher RPMs, reducing the risk of burning or clogging. This allows for faster, smoother drilling that requires less power, even in tough materials.

• Waveform Body Design for a Cooler, Cleaner Cut

These carbide tipped Forstner bits are designed with an innovative waveform body and multiple scoring cutters, which reduce friction for cooler operation and longer-lasting sharpness. Unlike traditional Forstner bits, Bormax³ bits feature split circumference scoring that results in cleaner cuts with minimal maintenance.

• Optimized Center Spur and Hex Shank for Stability and Control

The Bormax³’s center spur is milled directly from the carbide layer and ground for precise concentricity, keeping the bit stable and on track. The hex shank design prevents slippage, making these bits ideal for handheld drills, drill presses, and lathe applications.
