SPYDER Pilot Drill Bits

Spyder pilot drill bits are designed to attach to the arbour inside hole saws for preventing the hole saw from walking when it starts cutting. They are often used before the final hole is drilled, ensuring that the larger drill drives straight and the hole is created in the proper place.

Pilot Drill Bits

Spyder pilot drill bits are designed to attach to the arbor inside hole saws for preventing the hole saw from walking when it starts cutting. These pilot drill bits feature high speed steel construction for resistance to wear & excellent toughness. They come with tungsten carbide tipped, multi-shaped teeth for durability & strength.

Working Mechanism

  • Power up the drill and plug it in or insert the battery.
  • Modify the torque to suit the material you're drilling. For example, drilling wood will need more torque than drilling drywall.
  • Find the Xs or dots you created to mark where to drill and get at the right level to drill the hole.
  • Steady your drill vertically and gently pull the trigger.
  • Start drilling with a lower speed. As you get further into the material, you can speed up.
  • Once you have drilled as far as you need, put the drill in reverse.
  • Pull the trigger and back out the drill bit. Take care not to jerk on the drill or pull at an angle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it necessary to drill a pilot hole?

Pilot holes are required if drilling into hardwood, laminate or require an accurately located fastener. They're also suitable if the wood is possible to crack or if appearance is important.

What tool is used for making pilot holes?

A punch is a small, slim tool with a pointed end that permits making a small dent in the work surface. This dent prevents drill bits from slipping when starting the pilot hole. Position the tip of the punch over a pencil mark and then strike the punch lightly with a hammer.
