Countersinks & Counterbores
Countersinks and counterbores are specialized hole making cutting tools that create precise, angled, or flat-bottomed recesses in workpieces for the proper seating of fasteners. Countersinks create conical recesses for countersunk screws, while counterbores create cylindrical recesses for socket-head cap screws or bolts. These tools are used in various industrial applications, including metalworking, woodworking, and plastic fabrication, to enhance the appearance, functionality, and structural integrity of assembled parts.
