Description
Overview
The S838 Drill Stop Set (S838) is designed for Hardware > Tool Accessories applications requiring precise, repeatable hole depth control when using twist drill bits and brad point drill bits. Manufactured by General Tools, this 7-piece set provides positive depth control to prevent excessive drill bit penetration across successive drilling operations.

Technical Features
- Cold rolled steel construction with black oxide finish provides structural rigidity and surface protection, ensuring the stops maintain their set depth position under repeated use.
- Positive depth control mechanism assures identical hole depths across successive drilling operations, eliminating guesswork and reducing material waste in repetitive tasks.
- Six-size assortment (3/16 in. through 1/2 in.) covers a broad range of common drill bit diameters in a single set, reducing the need for multiple purchases.
- Hex wrench included allows precise, tool-secured tightening of each stop directly onto the drill bit shank, preventing slippage during drilling.
- Compatible with twist drill bits and brad point drill bits provides versatility across the two most common bit types used in woodworking and general drilling applications.
Applications
- Woodworking projects requiring consistent, uniform hole depths across multiple drill points.
- Cabinetry and furniture assembly where repeated holes at identical depths are critical for hardware alignment.
- General construction tasks where controlling drill penetration prevents damage to substrates or underlying materials.
- Any repetitive drilling operation where depth accuracy is essential to part fit and finish quality.
