5mm brad point boring bit is a right hand boring tool designed for precise drilling where a 5mm hole and brad point centering are required. The 5mm diameter and brad point tip work together to start each bore accurately, which helps reduce walking on the work surface and supports consistent hole placement across cabinet and furniture runs. The 57mm long design gives working reach for typical line-boring and dowel-boring depths while keeping the bit compact for controlled operation. This Amana Tool bit uses a 10mm shank size, aligning with boring machines built around 10mm shank tools so the bit seats securely in the spindle. The manufacturer part number 201005 clearly identifies this exact configuration when matching or reordering for existing boring setups.
This 5mm x 57mm brad point boring bit is specified for boring machines with a 10mm shank interface and for drill presses with a 3/8 inch shank interface. The boring machine application aligns with the 10mm shank, so the bit installs into a compatible 10mm holder designed for boring operations. Drill press use with a 3/8 inch shank supports fixed-station drilling where the workpiece is brought to the bit under a controlled feed. The bit is not for portable drills or routers, which confines its use to stable, stationary equipment where feed direction and alignment remain consistent during boring.
The 5mm x 57mm brad point boring bit from Amana Tool fits into boring machines that are built around 10mm shank tools, so it works naturally in line-boring and dowel-boring stations using that standard. In these machines, the 5mm diameter sets a consistent hole size for layouts that are designed around 5mm hardware or dowel locations, keeping dimensions matched to jigs and templates built for that bore. When used in drill presses with suitable 3/8 inch shank setups, the same 5mm diameter and brad point geometry support controlled part drilling where the operator positions work off fences or stops for repeatable results in small production runs or custom builds.
The right hand rotation of this boring bit is designed to run clockwise, which means it tracks properly in right hand boring machines so the cutting edges engage and clear material as intended. This rotation detail supports consistent chip evacuation patterns, which can help maintain cleaner bores across multiple holes. The 57mm long format gives enough reach for typical cabinet panel thicknesses while limiting leverage on the spindle, which helps the bit stay true to the bore path and supports straighter holes. The 10mm shank interface on boring machines provides a solid connection to the spindle drive, and this secure seating reduces runout that could otherwise affect hole accuracy across large layout patterns. The Amana Tool manufacturer part number 201005 clearly identifies this right hand 5mm brad point configuration, which aids in matching existing tools during replacement so the boring setup continues to produce the same hole size and geometry over time.
This 5mm brad point boring bit is right hand and rotates clockwise, so it is suited to right hand boring machines where clockwise spindle rotation is standard during boring operations.
This boring bit is designed for boring machines with a 10mm shank interface and for drill presses with a 3/8 inch shank interface, so it serves fixed-station boring setups.
The 5mm brad point tip centers the bit as it starts the hole, which supports accurate bore positioning where layouts depend on tight spacing and alignment.
The 57mm long design provides working reach for cabinet and furniture boring tasks while keeping leverage on the spindle moderate for controlled drilling.
Amana Tool part number 201005 identifies this specific 5mm brad point, right hand, 57mm long boring bit, which supports consistent reordering for matching setups.
This boring bit is described for boring machines and drill presses and is not for portable drills or routers, keeping use focused on stable, stationary equipment.
The 5mm x 57mm Brad Point Boring Bit, Right Hand, 10mm Shank from Amana Tool delivers a 5mm brad point cutting geometry, a 57mm long format, and a 10mm shank sized for boring machines. Its right hand, clockwise rotation and drill press suitability give flexibility across stationary boring setups. For boring operations planned around 5mm diameter holes in controlled equipment, this Amana Tool 201005 bit provides the defined dimensions and rotation behavior needed to maintain consistent bores in ongoing cabinet and woodworking projects.
