- 4-facet point brings the point to a chisel edge that will not walk and bores round, straight holes with close tolerances.
- The always equal two cutting edges are sharpened symmetrically and work in perfect unison which prolongs the life of the drill.
- Sharpens all point angles between 90 and 150 degrees.
- The optimal clearance angle can be set according to each drilling requirement to 7, 9, 11, or 14 degrees.
- One drill holder sharpens drill bits from 1/8-Inch (3mm) to 7/8-Inch (22 mm).
Product Description
-------------------
For years, professional craftspeople have asked “how can I
sharpen my own drill bits?” Tormek, a leader in tool sharpening
for more than 40 years, has responded with this exceptional
DBS-22 Drill Bit Sharpening jig. For use with all Tormek
sharpening systems (T-7, T-4, T-3, and Supergrind 2000), it
allows you to keep your drill bits sharp and ready to work. The
four-facet grind this jig produces is worth discussing, as we
feel it’s infinitely superior to the common split-point grind
other systems produce. The symmetrical four-facet grinding
increases bit life, and allows the freshly sharpened bits to be
self-centering, making your work a lot easier. Think about it –
no pilot holes or punches needed for precision. Plus, a
four-facet grind produces a bit that utilizes less torque and
generates less heat (70% less heat) than a conventional bit.
Another important aspect is this jig is part of a complete
water-cooled sharpening system that will make your entire shop’s
worth of tools finely honed, while taking less metal off the
tools and bits, increasing longevity. You can buy a stand-alone
“drill bit only” machine (like Drill Doctor) that produces the
inferior split-point grind, or you can have a professional-grade
Tormek system with interchangeable jigs like the DBS-22. For
people who love good tools and the exceptional work they produce,
the choice is clear.

Keep your drill bits sharp with the help of the DBS-22 drill bit
sharpening attachment from Tormek. This attachment is designed to
be used with either of Tormek's signature tool-sharpening
systems, the T-7 or the T-3. Sharpen any bit between 1/8 inch and
7/8 inch in diameter, and create a four-facet point for
exceptional drilling performance and longer bit life. The DBS-22
can be adjusted to a variety of angles depending on the style of
your bit.
Sharpen and Restore Drill Bits with Precision
Using this attachment with a Tormek T-7 or Tormek T-3 sharpening
system, you can sharpen your drill bits as well as restore worn
or broken drill bits to a perfect shape. The system creates a
four-facet point that won't walk for optimal drilling
performance. A bit with a four-facet point also requires less
thrust force, generates less heat, and can bore a round, straight
hole with close tolerances. Independent tests have shown that a
Tormek-sharpened drill bit can last up to four times longer than
a brand-new conventional bit. Highly Adjustable and Compatible
with Different Bits
The DBS-22 attachment can hold drill bits that measure anywhere
from 1/8 inch to 7/8 inch in diameter. It can be set at any angle
between 90 degrees and 150 degrees, and the optimal clearance
angle can be set to 7 degrees, 9 degrees, 11 degrees, or 14
degrees, depending on the bit size and material.
About Tormek
Tormek is committed to providing the best solutions for the
sharpening of all types of edge tools. Well grounded in Swedish
traditions for advanced innovation, functionality, and quality,
Tormek has developed a unique sharpening system that has come to
set the standard in modern edge tool sharpening.
Since 1973, problem-solving through innovation has been a strong
driving force for Tormek. This has resulted in 13 patents and the
widest product range on the market. It includes 16 unique jigs
and attachments, each one specially designed to easily achieve
optimal sharpness on all kinds of edge tools.
Today, Tormek exports to more than 30 countries worldwide. The
products are appreciated by cabinet makers, carpenters,
woodcarvers, and wood turners as well as serious chefs in
restaurants, industrial kitchens, and households. The Tormek
sharpening system is also widely used in professional sharpening
businesses.
All of Tormek's product development, engineering work, and
production are done in Sweden. The company is located in

From the Manufacturer
---------------------
With the Tormek DBS-22 Drill Bit Sharpening Attachment you can
now sharpen your drill bits with the highest precision. The
optimal point and clearance angles can be set according to each
drilling requirement, which depends on the drill size and
material. You can completely restore worn drills as well as
broken drills to a perfect shape. You create a 4-facet point
which gives the ideal cutting performance since the chisel edge
gets a point instead of being almost flat as on many drills. A
4-facet point will not walk and the thrust force required is
considerably reduced compared to a conventional cone point drill.
A precision sharpened 4-facet point generates less heat and the
life of the drill is therefore also prolonged. Independent tests
show that a Tormek sharpened drill lasts up to 4 times longer
than a brand new conventional drill bit. By working the laws of
physics and cooling the edge continuously, the risk that the
steel becomes overheated and loses its hardness or gets micro
cracks is eliminated. You have full control all the time and can
see how the sharpening proceeds. Parts include a base plate,
guide, drill holder, setting template, and magnifier.
