Countersink

An angular cutting tool, usually made with angular relief, having one or more flutes with specific size angle cutting edges. It is used for chamfering and countersinking holes. The tool may have a straight shank, tapered shank, bit stock shank or special shank requiring a special holder, for holding in a power- or hand-operated machine. It may be designed to be driven or turned by means of a wrench or carpenter's brace. For items requiring a holder but the holder is not included, use cutter, countersink.
