Machined from hard-wearing Swiss steel, Festool ZOBO bits set a new standard for precision hole cutting. Interchangeable pinpoint and pilot bits enable rapid, precise drilling at angles up to 70 degrees, while highly efficient chip ejection prevents overheating, keeping cutters sharper longer. ZOBO bits clear their own path, effortlessly speeding through dense material, saving time and wasted steps. Quick change shanks are best suited for use with Festool Centrotec System, but ensure secure gripping in any keyless chuck.

Superb precision, exacting engineering and design and performs exactly as you would expect from a premium product. If, like me, you have been wary of forstner bits in the past...questionable quality, unable to bore at an angle and left with a hole that is more oval than round then bite the bullet and invest in this unbelievably good set.It is an investment, as they come at a price but one cut, the sound of precision slicing and a pile of shavings that are almost translucent will convince you that you made the right decision. The ability to change centre points to precisely locate the bit either vertically, or at an angle, is so easy and so precise. Tapered shafts on the points provide sufficient grip and the window on the shaft allows rapid ejection of the centre ... MoreSuperb precision, exacting engineering and design and performs exactly as you would expect from a premium product.

Tapered shafts on the points provide sufficient grip and the window on the shaft allows rapid ejection of the centre points using the supplied tommy bar. There is a longer centre pin provided for angled cuts as well as a drill bit which is superb for following through on the cut allowing you to drill to the other side, turn your wood over and cut exactly from the reverse side using the drill hole. Result. a perfect hole with absolutely no cut out and no need for a sacrificial piece underneath.These Zobo bits are beautifully machined, have a wonderful heft to them that smacks of the highest quality and precision, and can be sharpened. I did question my sanity at spending over £100 on five forstner bits, but one cut was enough to forget the initial purchase price. Absolutely brilliant.

if you want precision and no chatter....
While the forstner bits themselves are excellent quality, the optional twist drill bit is very poor quality. The twist drill bit bent like a pretzel within 2 seconds of use. I have never seen a drill bit bend so easily. Most drill bits tend to snap before being bent. To make this worse, the replacement bits cannot be purchased individually from Festool
