Drills are among the oldest wood processing tools. Even today, they are still indispensable. No matter if it’s for dowel joints, borings for hinges and fittings or construction bores, there is hardly a component which does not have to be bored.
Leitz offers a comprehensive programme of drills; from standard application to customer-specific solutions and applications in the high-performance area.
Dowel drills
Bores are an integral part of almost every component, with dowel or blind holes used most frequently. Whether as row hole boring or boring for dowel joints, Leitz offers the perfect solutions. Different designs, for small batch sizes to mass boring within industrial environments, Leitz offers the perfect solution to every customer.
Through hole drills
Holes for handles, carcass joints or screw connections require powerful boring tools that deliver the best machining result. Leitz offers an extensive range of through hole drills for almost every task and every application. Optimized for excellent hole edge quality, especially on the exit side, Leitz drills reduce reworking to a minimum.
Hinge drills
Hinge holes are an integral part of almost every piece of furniture where the end-product depends on perfectly clean hole edges with high boring performance. Leitz was the first tool manufacturer to develop and market solid carbide boring bits for the hinge boring sector; today these drills are still in use thousands of times over and continue to inspire customers all over the world.
Drilling for windows and doors, and timber construction
When boring corner joints in window and door construction, it is the exact accuracy of the holes and the high cycle performance that are essential. Leitz has set the industry benchmark with its high-performance Marathon drills, providing boring depths up to 80 mm without intermediate emptying. These powerful drilling tools are also in demand for applications in timber or frame construction.
Countersinks
Holes often have to be countersunk so that screws or hinges can be installed flush with the workpiece. The finish quality of the countersink is all important. Leitz offers appropriate countersinking tools for this purpose, as one-piece countersinks with shanks or as countersinks for appropriate boring tools.
