Countersinks
Precision Tools for Clean, Tapered Holes
Countersinks are specialized cutting tools designed to create conical holes for flathead screws and bolts. These tools are essential for producing clean, tapered holes that allow screws to sit flush with or below the surface of the material. Countersinks are widely used in various industries to improve the fit and finish of assembled parts.
