In connections with screws, the screw head should not normally protrude beyond the surface of the material - not only for aesthetic reasons, but also for safety considerations. Therefore, screws are countersunk unless round-headed, pan-headed or similar screws are used, where the head rests on the surrounding material.

CLEAN WORKING RESULTS WHEN FASTENING SCREWS

The countersinks in our programme are basically suitable for solid wood, most wood materials and plastics. You can also use them on softer metals. For iron and steel, however, you should primarily use the corresponding HSS countersinks.

Countersink types - When to use which countersink?

There are different types of countersinks available for woodworking, from which you can choose according to your own quality requirements and budget:

  • Cone countersink: for simple work
  • 90°Countersink: for occasional countersinking of drill holes in metal and for higher demands on the quality of countersinking in wood
  • Cross Hole countersink: delivers faster and better results and also features a longer service life, so the investment pays off
