Product Description

From the Manufacturer

MLCS forstner bits are manufactured from high quality steel that is long lasting, precision ground for heavy use and easily resharpened. Forstner bits are designed to drill flat bottom or through holes cleanly in end grain, thin stock, veneers and regular stock. They enlarge existing holes with ease and can bore any arc of a circle. These bits will not move off center through unusual grain or knots. Great for mounting mini-quartz clock movements, cup hinges and door locks. Sizes 1/4-Inch to 7/8-Inch bits are supplied with solid rims. The saw teeth design for larger diameter bits (1-Inch and larger) stop burning and cut faster without losing the advantages of Forstner bit action. Shank size is 3/8-Inch and overall length is 3-1/2-Inch for sizes 1/4-Inch through 2-1/8-Inch excluding metric sizes. For sizes 2-1/4-Inch through 4-1/2-Inch shank size is 1/2-Inch and overall length is 6-3/8-Inch. Use large bits in drill press

2.0 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for., October 15, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: MLCS 9214 1-1/16-Inch Diameter High Quality Steel Forstner Bit (Tools & Home Improvement)
I needed a forstner bit quickly, and decided to try out this MLCS bit. While this looks very similar to other forstner bits, the performance was very poor. I had to clear the bit several times for each hole I cut. I checked for imperfections but found none. I lubricated the bit to see if that would help, but it did not. Performance was equally poor with hard- and softwood.

I do not recommend this product, and my experience with it will keep me from buying another MLCS bit again.

3.0 out of 5 stars High Quality refers to the steel (maybe), July 18, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: MLCS 9214 1-1/16-Inch Diameter High Quality Steel Forstner Bit (Tools & Home Improvement)
This is not a top of the line bit. I bought it because I needed the odd size for a specific project and it will probably see only occasional use thereafter. It cut reasonably cleanly after doing some honing to get rid of the manufacturing burs before I used it the first time.

Adequate for my specific need but not something I would buy for frequent or precision use.

3.0 out of 5 stars the shaft was a surprise, January 13, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: MLCS 9214 1-1/16-Inch Diameter High Quality Steel Forstner Bit (Tools & Home Improvement)
The business end was fine, but I was surprised that the shaft didn't it into my drill bit extension. I would suggest that vendors may want to specify shaft size as well as bit size.
