Cylinder boring bit FAMAG 1633 for stationary drilling in wood

Cylinder boring bit FAMAG 1633 is a precision tool designed for stationary drilling in woodworking applications. Manufactured from alloyed tool steel, the bit delivers durability and consistent performance under demanding conditions. It is equipped with a centre point, two main cutting edges, and two taper taps.

The centre point positions the bit securely at the start of drilling, while the two cutting edges ensure smooth material removal. The taper taps support chip extraction and reduce clogging, maintaining drilling efficiency. FAMAG 1633 is suitable for drilling clean, tear-free holes in soft wood, European hardwood, and veneered boards.

Its geometry prevents splintering and ensures accurate results, making it effective for joinery and furniture production. A key advantage of this cylinder boring bit is the ease of resharpening due to its straight taper taps. This feature extends tool life, lowers replacement costs, and supports sustainable tool use in workshops.
