A brad-point bit like this 20mm drill bit scores the hole's perimeter before the flutes cut in, giving a clean entry and smooth sidewalls, particularly useful in hardwoods and cross-grain drilling.
High-speed steel resists the burning and dulling that a standard twist bit develops with extended use, so it holds an edge longer in hardwoods.
This 20mm drill bit measures 20mm in diameter and 6" long overall, with 3 5/8" of fluting to clear chips as it cuts.
