The high-alloy ball-bearing-steel drill bits feature a centring point, two cutting edges and two chamfers for fast, clean drilling in wood, glued solid wood, MDF, laminated chipboard and acrylic glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp itemprop=\"description\"\u003eThe Festool BKS SYS3 D3-10 CE\/W is a professional six-piece wood drill bit assortment designed around the fast and compact CENTROTEC drilling system. It includes the most useful everyday wood-drilling diameters from 3 mm through 10 mm, with each drill bit manufactured from high-alloy ball-bearing steel for durability and reliable cutting performance. A precise centring point establishes the drilling position before the two main cutting edges enter the material, helping produce fast, clean and accurately positioned holes. Instead of conventional pre-cutting blades, Festool uses two chamfers on these bits, a design intended to provide long service life even when drilling laminated chipboard. The integrated CENTROTEC interface allows each drill bit to be inserted directly into the WH-CE CENTROTEC tool chuck for exceptionally quick changes between drilling and screwdriving accessories. All six drills are stored securely in a compact magnetic cassette that fits Festool Systainer³ models with lid compartments and can also be used independently as a convenient portable drill-bit case.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"definition-products\"\u003e\r\n  \u003cstrong\u003eSix essential wood-drilling sizes, always organised\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n  \u003cp\u003eThe BKS SYS3 D3-10 CE\/W combines ø 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 10 mm drill bits in one compact cassette.
