The Trend CRAFTPRO WS Hinge Sinking Bit is a 35mm tool steel cutter designed for drilling accurate recesses for Euro style kitchen hinges in solid timber. Constructed from tool steel with a cutting spur design, this hinge sinking bit scribes the outer edge of the recess before cutting, producing clean, splinter-free results in both hard and softwoods. The spur geometry eliminates ragged edges that can compromise hinge fitment and the finished appearance of cabinetry. The 8mm shank diameter ensures compatibility with a range of pillar drills, making it a practical choice for workshop use. Consistent 35mm diameter recesses are achieved on every pass, which speeds up batch work considerably when fitting multiple hinges on a kitchen or furniture project. Designed to be resharpened rather than discarded, this cutter offers a longer working lifespan than disposable alternatives — a sensible consideration for carpenters and joiners who carry out regular hinge fitting work.
