What are screw pilot bits?
Pilot holes may be used when driving a screw, typically in wood, concrete, or plastic where the screw cuts its own threads. When a screw is driven into a material without a pilot hole, it can act as a wedge. This generates outward pressure which can cause many materials to split.
How big should a pilot hole be for a screw?
If you aren't sure which size drill bit to use, choose one that's around 0,3mm larger than the diameter of the screw's shank.
Generally, the pilot hole size for wood screws should be approximately the same diameter as the screw's shank minus the threads. Woodworkers often make the pilot hole too small, believing a tighter space will make the screw hold better.
