Counter sink bit?
« on: August 04, 2010, 01:52:00 PM »
I'm trying to find a self centering counter sink bit for counter-sinking limb bolt heads in a phenolic pad, instead of using the bezels and washers.  I used one I bought at Lowes on the last one, but it wasn't the right degree bevel, and it cut like crap.  I need to find one that is less than 90 deg with a 5/16" guide built into the bit.  The bolt head is 5/8" across, and I'm guessing the bevel needs to be around 75 degrees.  Anyone know what these pros use?

#2739A66     Anti-Vibration Thru-Hole Countersink 82 Deg Piloted, 5/16"- 41/64" Hole Dia, 3/8" Shank  $14.55

A fella on another site turned me onto this.  Just what I needed, in case anyone is interested.  I will cap my limb butt with phenolic and counter sink into that to mount my limb bolts flush.  I did it on my first take down, but didn't have the proper bit.  This should make it just right.

That counter sink will be just the ticket. AND, they don't chatter!
