Forstner bits are specialized drill bits designed to cut clean, flat-bottom holes in wood—something standard twist drills or spade bits can’t do well.
What makes them different
Flat-bottom holes → ideal for precise depth work
Clean edges → minimal tear-out
Can overlap holes → useful for slotting
No center breakthrough required → can drill partial holes
That’s why they’re widely used in furniture and cabinet work.
Common uses
Cabinet hinges (especially 35mm concealed hinges)
Furniture joinery (dowels, mortises)
Wood plug cutting
Recessing bolts or hardware
Drilling large, neat holes in plywood or MDF
Sizes available
Typical sets include:
Small: 10mm – 25mm
Medium: 26mm – 40mm
Large: up to 60mm+
The 35mm size is the most popular (hinge installation).
