Your cart is empty.The Confirmat Screw Step Drills from Snappy are designed so you can easily replace the brad point drill (sold separately) if it is damaged. Shanks are 1/4" hex so they can be changed for the PoziDrive driver bits in a snap. Use 2 PoziDrive with 5x40 Confirmat Screws and 3 with 7x50 Confirmat Screws.

Exactly what I needed to drill pilot holes and countersink confirmat screws in 3/4” melamine. There was some chip out around the countersink, but in my situation the screws will not show.

The twist of the drill bit needs to be a bit longer to avoid splitting the material.

works good. I do not like the way it drills deep and head of screw sits half way thru 3/4 inch board

Worked great for using confirmat screws and counter setting them. Still seemed on the pricy side but it has did a good job drilling a couple hundred holes so far.

Built a bunch of built in bookcases using melamine coated particle board. This bit worked great for the confirmat screws. I used a long 1/8" bit first with a jig I made to get the screws in the right place and straight. After drilling with the pilot bit, this bit will follow the pilot hole making the hole straight. I tried eyeballing at first, but found that to be a bad idea when the bit went partially through my finger that was supporting the shelf board.

Works ok for what it's supposed to do. Dropping a star off as I think it's overpriced for what it is but didn't want to wait for my usual supplier to ship.

There are some on the market that are non-adjustable and are reported to bend/damage easily. Not this one! I was at times just replacing the edge-board so by dis-assembling the core bit I was able to insert the outer countersink into the existing hole and use it as a guide to get perfect centering for a new hole. Very useful!

For the price, this is an excellent bit. You do have to pull the bit in and out as it is rotating in order to clean out saw dust it creates, not a hardship, but not as smooth as a carbide one piece bit at 3x's the cost. I think this is an excellent route to take for cabinet assembly and I would suggest that during assembly the screws shouldn't be ultimately snugged up until the cabinet is squared up by attaching the back. I am impressed with the confirmat fastening system and the total lack of splitting end grain. For example I built some pullouts and needed to attach 12mm baltic birch ply wood at right angles to each other. The confirmat system handled this need without splitting the edge of the 12mm baltic birch plywood and held fast--that was impressive.

If you're building cabinets and planning to use confirmat screws - sometimes also called connector screws, although several different shaped fasteners use that name - this little drill bite will make you're life so much easier. It has a 3 stage profile that's just right for a 7x50mm confirmat screw so that your screws can bit firmly into the perpendicular panel and pull it tight against it's adjoining panel. The central drill bit has a brad-point so it cuts cleanly and doesn't wander on wooden panels. The shank has a 6mm hex profile so it's easy to chuck and stays securely in place without slipping. The larger profile cutters near the shank only have a single cutting surface and don't cut as cleanly as the brad point does - at least in the melamine coated particle board material I was using. It had a tendency to leave some of the surface material from the hole attached and hanging from the side of the hole which looks a little messy. This is maybe the one sub-optimal aspect of this bit, but it didn't tear out so it was easy enough to clean up afterwards. At almost $40, it's not exactly cheap but if you're building more than a few custom cabinets, this may be worth the investment to save you some time and get a nice end result.
