Snappy Gold Screw Countersink Drill Bits HSS

Snappy’s Gold Screw Countersinks will drill the pilot hole and countersink or counterbore for screws in one step.

Countersink to drive the head of the screw flush with or slightly below the surface. Easily control depth using an optional stop collar. Counterbore to drive the screw below the surface and plug the hole. The 82 countersink angle matches the angle on the head of most wood screws.

Why Gold Screws?

Snappy have been pivotal in the development of countersinking screws internationally and one of their finest innovations is the development of the gold screw, which holds tighter in the countersink bore and allows for easier adjustment, without the risk of slip or tear-out. Made from high-quality HSS with Snappy’s renowned patented easy-use features, if you’re a cabinet maker or doing any scope of home renovation, these countersinks will save you so much time it’s not even worth debating.

TCT or HSS?

Because we’re woodworking specialists, we stock better quality brands that are aimed at professionals. So, having said that, while Snappy HSS are still far higher-quality than the standard countersinks you’ll find on the shelves of any ill-equipped standard hardware store, their TCT options offer extra strength and durability.
