FAQ

What material is the counterbore set made from?

The set is constructed from high‑speed steel (HSS), a material known for its hardness, heat resistance, and ability to maintain a sharp cutting edge even under demanding machining conditions.

Can these cutters be used on a CNC machine?

Yes, the three‑flute design is optimized for both manual drill presses and CNC milling centers. The cutters can be mounted in standard tool holders, allowing seamless integration into automated machining workflows.

How do I select the correct cutter for a specific screw size?

Each cutter in the set is labeled with its intended screw size range (M3‑M12). Refer to the product markings or the included size chart to match the cutter to the cap screw you are working with, ensuring proper fit and finish.

What warranty does SHARS offer for this product?

SHARS provides a limited warranty that covers manufacturing defects and premature wear under normal use. Customers can contact SHARS technical support for assistance, replacement parts, or troubleshooting guidance.

Is the set suitable for hardened steel applications?

While the HSS material offers excellent performance on many alloys, for extremely hardened steel you may consider using carbide‑coated variants. However, for most industrial and scientific applications, the SHARS HSS set delivers reliable results.
