5mm x 70mm dowel drill bit describes a Ditec dowel drill that cuts 5mm dowel holes over a 70mm cutting length, giving cabinet and furniture builders a dedicated size for consistent dowel joint layouts. The brad point geometry centers the bit before the outer cutting edges engage, which helps control walking and gives clean, defined entry points in boring operations. High performance carbide on the cutting edges holds a sharp profile through extended use, so bores stay accurate over longer production runs. Special grinding on this bit shapes the cutting edges and clearances for these dowel boring duties, which supports smooth cutting and consistent hole sizing. Right hand rotation means the bit is designed to run clockwise in compatible boring equipment. A 10mm shank provides a standardized mounting diameter, so the bit seats securely in matching chucks or boring heads.
The 10mm shank on this Amana Tool dowel drill bit seats into tool holders sized for a 10mm diameter, giving the bit a stable interface in boring machines. That firm grip supports accurate runout control, which matters when boring 5mm dowel holes that need to line up across multiple parts. Clockwise, right hand rotation lets the bit match right hand spindles so the cutting edges meet the workpiece in their intended direction. The brad point tip engages the material at the center first, guiding the bit into the layout mark before the outer lips cut the full diameter. This sequence helps the bit stay on its mark in face boring and edge boring situations. The bit is identified as a dowel drill, aligning its geometry and cutting action to create straight, clean bores suited to dowel joint applications.
The 5mm brad point boring bit from Amana Tool is defined as a Ditec dowel drill, so its design is oriented toward boring dowel holes in woodworking setups. The 5mm diameter targets joinery that relies on 5mm dowels, which are commonly matched to predrilled patterns in cabinet sides, shelves, stretchers, or similar components. Its 70mm length provides reach for boring deeper into workpieces where longer dowel penetration is desired, such as full-depth case sides or thicker furniture components. The bit sits in a 10mm shank holder on dedicated boring equipment, which places it naturally in line boring machines or multi-spindle heads built around that shank size. Right hand, clockwise rotation matches right hand spindles, keeping the cutting edges sweeping into the cut as intended for smooth entry and exit.
The brad point geometry on this dowel drill centers the bit before full-diameter cutting occurs, helping holes land precisely on layout centers and improving repeatability across rows of bores. Special grinding applied to the Ditec dowel drill shapes the lands, clearances, and point so the bit shears wood fibers efficiently, which supports clean sidewalls that accept dowel glue evenly. High performance carbide cutting edges hold their shape under repeated boring, which means the 5mm diameter remains consistent as more parts are processed. That stability matters when dowel fit needs to balance grip with assembly ease. The 10mm shank creates a robust mounting base, so clamping forces act on a generous diameter and help the tool track straight. Combined with the defined right hand rotation, these elements keep the bit working predictably in production environments focused on dowel-based assembly.
The 5mm x 70mm dowel drill bit bores 5mm diameter holes, which matches 5mm dowel joinery layouts and supports consistent, tight-fitting dowel joints in cabinet and furniture components.
The brad point tip on this boring bit centers the tool before full cutting, helping it start exactly on layout marks and improving accuracy in face or edge dowel boring.
The 10mm shank on this dowel drill bit fits 10mm holders in boring equipment, providing secure clamping and stable rotation for accurate 5mm bores.
This Amana Tool dowel drill bit is right hand because it rotates clockwise, matching right hand boring spindles and letting the cutting edges engage in their intended direction.
The high performance carbide on this Ditec dowel drill maintains sharp cutting edges longer, helping hole size and surface quality stay consistent through extended boring runs.
Special grinding on this Ditec dowel drill shapes the geometry for boring, promoting efficient chip removal and smooth hole walls in dowel drilling applications.
This 5mm x 70mm dowel drill brad point boring bit from Amana Tool combines a 5mm cutting diameter, 70mm drilling reach, and 10mm shank to handle common dowel hole tasks in woodworking production. The right hand, clockwise rotation matches right hand spindles, and the brad point tip aims the bit directly on center marks. High performance carbide and special grinding are applied specifically for dowel drills, supporting clean, consistent bores over extended runs. For shops standardizing on 5mm dowels, this bit provides the defined size and boring geometry needed for repeatable assembly work.
