Description

Ideal for starting screws, our auger gimlets have a tapered screw tip and an auger body. They are exceptional value for their quality. Every shop should have a set.

The seven sizes in the set are  2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.5mm, 5mm, which will handle the pre-drill for screw sizes #2 to #9. They are particularly useful for short screws or screws in awkward places, both of which present problems for power pre-drilling.

They are very light to use and manoeuvre accurately. The drill pulls itself into the wood due to the tapered screw tip and the deep auger guarantees good chip removal. In addition, their slightly tapered shape leads to greater tensile strength of screw joints. The auger chip removal stops your workpiece wood splitting.

In tempered steel, ferro-blacked in the traditional manner, this set was made for us by a small French manufacturer.
Packaged in a nice cardboard box.
Made in France.

Great - they are tapered and good for old fashioned (proper) wood screws. Go gently into hardwoods.

Gimlet set

Wonderfully made.
The original cordless drills. Great for demonstrating medieval wood working making arrows. Drilling out deepest point of arrow self nocks and drilling out pin holes for arrow point retaining pins.
Very satisfying to use in a tactile sense

Gimlets are like hens’ teeth, they are extremely hard to find nowadays, most large hardware chains have never even heard of them! I am delighted with my purchase and look forward to using them going forward.

Wasn't looking for these, went in for something else. But, why wouldn't you..? Have used them on a project, simpler than grabbing a drill and rummaging for a bit, if you only have a few to do and much more, tactile...
