Review on Freud 50 110 8 Inch 1 Inch Bearing by Zach Peterson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

They sent me a 1/2 " shank chisel not a 1/4 " shank chisel

They sent me a 1/2" shank chisel not a 1/4" shank chisel " . The other sizes were correct, but a 1/2" shank drill will not fit in a 1/4" collet cutter, just to say. I have a co-worker who will buy it from me, so it could be worse be, but the packing list says the bit has a 1/4" collet, so someone didn't read the box, right? There is a typo in the description, it needs to be corrected (perhaps trying to overlap?). UPDATE: I've searched the Freud website and they DO NOT offer a 7/8" diameter upper bearing drill with a 1/4" shank. . The largest flush upper bearing 1/4" shank bit shown on the Freud website is the 50-106 which is 3/4" tall. Sold here is a 1/2 inch 50-110 drill bit. The shank is NOT a 1/4" shank. The description needs to be amended.

Pros
  • Straight, spiral and trimming bits
Cons
  • Unfashionable
