COUNTERBORE BITS are used to create a counter bore in the  crossing pad for a Torx® head type bolt. The bolt must be installed below the surface grade of the crossing pad to prevent damage to vehicle tires. In colder climates where snow removal is necessary, this countersinking process prevents snowplow blades from shearing off the bolt head.

Railroad Tie Bits feature variable geometries that allow the bits to be fully customized at the factory to meet the wide range and variety of applications, materials, and tools required on today’s demanding railroad job sites.

CARBIDE TIPPED Bits are specifically designed for drilling holes in any types of railway cross ties, pressure treated lumber, and plastic ties. The single flute works in a screw-like fashion, feeding the carbide tip into the material while maximizing chip removal. The open flute prevents chip clogging. The oversized carbide tip prevents the wood from burning and prevents the bit from getting stuck in the wood. The high quality carbide tip, has a "shovel" (50°) design that will drill into the hardest of woods. Simple put our bits are designed for drilling.

Customizable to meet the requirements of your tooling and equipment.

This bit features a carbide tipped cutter and a hardened steel scribe shoulder. This unique design allows the bit to bore clean smooth holes.
It is designed to be completely refurbished thus greatly reducing the already low cost per hole performance of our carbide tipped wood augers.
Designed to be used with electric, air, hydraulic, or gasoline powered drill motors and impact wrenches. Extra Long Bits Available for Bridge Work
