SMART-BIT FOR 
FIBER CEMENT BOARD

FREE-SPINNING STOP COLLAR

The Smart-Bit stop collar spins free of the drill bit, preventing marring or burnishing of the work surface. The ridges on the stop collar and the easy to read imprinted Smart-Bit name make it easy to see when the stop collar stops spinning. When the spinning stops, the hole is completed. No more guess work or the need to maintain constant manual depths.

ANTI-CLOG DEBRIS CAVITY

Other stop collars are flush mounted to the countersinking bit. Waste material gets compacted between the countersink flutes (blades) and the work surface, causing the hole to be too shallow. Not so with Smart-Bit. Smart-Bit's cavity is large enough so that the waste is free of the countersink. The waste simply falls out onto the work surface after each hole is completed.

TUNGSTEN CARBIDE TIPPED DRILL BIT

Tungsten carbide tips remain sharp after drilling many holes in fiber cement board.

SET SCREW ACCESS

Replacing bits on the new Smart-Bit is quick and easy. Simply place the supplied 3/32" hex wrench in the access hole and loosen the 3/16" set screw. Remove the old bit and insert a new one, aligning the flat orange side with the set screw. Tighten, and you're ready to go!

NO-MARK RUBBER RING

Even though the stop collar is free-spinning, Smart-Bit also adds a rubber O-ring to make sure it stops properly and without leaving any marks behind.

TUNGSTEN CARBIDE TIPPED PRE-SET COUNTERSINK

Smart-Bit matches the head diameter, head angle and countersink depth of corresponding screw sizes for the perfect hole and fit, all of which are pre-set in the tool assembly.

PRE-SET SHAFT LENGTH

Together with the countersink, the overall hole depth for the #10 Flat size will be 11mm (7/16") deep, which is what is needed for 9mm (3/8") compressed fiber cement board.
