The Freud PB-007 is a 1-inch Forstner drill bit designed for woodworkers who want clean, accurate results. Its razor-sharp serrated edge is made for fast, flawless cutting, while the ultra-sharp spur helps you start precisely where you mark—reducing wandering at the beginning of the hole.

Built from high speed steel (HSS) with forged construction, this bit is engineered for extended life. The steep angled cutting edges help produce smooth, flat-bottom holes and form ā€œchisel-likeā€ curls to clear chips efficiently as you drill.

With a 3/8-inch straight shank and right-hand rotation (RH), it’s an easy fit for common drill setups. It’s also backed by Freud’s limited lifetime guarantee for added peace of mind.
