countersink - side view
Countersinks are designed to produce accurate center holes in components which require matching between centers. They are available with
0 flutes (deburring)
1 flute (single)
3 flutes (center reamer)
4 flutes (machine)
6 flutes (chatterless)
HIGH SPEED STEEL
Zero Flute Countersinks are designed for countersinking and deburring operations. The single cutting edge removes stock quickly and prevents chatter.  They can be resharpened by using an Axial Relieving Fixture or by using a small mounted grinding wheel and inserting it into the hole.
Zero Flute (Deburring) page 184
Single Flute Countersinks should be used when multi-flute countersinks chatter or the hole is too small for a multi-flute countersink to enter. Use for machine and portable work when operating at higher speeds. Drilled hold should be at least 10% of the diameter of the countersink.
Single Flute page 184
Three Flute Countersinks should be used at a slower (1/2 to 2/3 the speed used for drilling) speed. Recommended for machine and portable work. Because of their centering ability they are widely used in portable applications.

Four Flute Machine Countersinks have a longer shank for use in Turret lathes and for screw machine works.

LONG REACH (EXTRA LENGTH)
Single Flute Long-Reach Countersinks are used for difficult to reach tool and die work. The single flute is designed for chamfering and deburring holes too small for multi-flute countersinks.
Long Reach - Single Flute page 187C
Six Flute Long-Reach Countersinks are used for difficult to reach tool and die work requiring fine finish cuts. The six cutting edges quickly center in hole and produce a smaller chip load.

ADJUSTABLE
Carbide Tipped Adjustable Drill Countersinks are designed to cut bevels in wood and plastic for wood screw heads #4 to #10. They attach to the drill with two set screws and can be adjusted up and down the drill for any length from a #4 to a #10 wood screw.

DRILL COUNTERSINKS
Drill Countersinks are designed to cut bevels in wood and plastic for wood screw heads. They attach to the drill with two set screws and can be adjusted up and down the drill for any length of wood screw. All Drill Countersinks have 4 flutes.
