Dowel Drill Bit with Stop Collar is sized to match Kreg's 3\/8 in. fluted dowel pins, giving you the mid-size option in Kreg's dowel joinery system for projects that need more holding power than a 1\/4 in. dowel but don't call for a full 1\/2 in. pin. Model number KDDB375.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThe 118-degree split-point tip is what makes this bit suited to joinery work specifically, rather than general drilling. It bites into the material on first contact instead of wandering, which is critical when a joint's alignment depends on every hole landing exactly on its mark — especially true with 3\/8 in. dowels, which are commonly used in heavier furniture and cabinet face-frame work where multiple pins are set close together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eHigh-speed steel construction keeps this bit cutting a consistent 3\/8 in. diameter hole through repeated use, which matters because dowel joinery projects frequently call for drilling the same size hole dozens of times across a single build. A bit that wears and drifts in diameter will produce a progressively looser or tighter fit as the project goes on — HSS resists that wear far better than basic carbon steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThe stop collar that comes with this bit is set once against a test piece and then locked down, giving you the same drilling depth on every subsequent hole without remeasuring. For 3\/8 in. dowel work, where projects often involve multiple dowels per joint, that repeatability is what keeps assembly fast and the joint tight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eWho should buy this: woodworkers and cabinet builders using Kreg's 3\/8 in. dowel pins for furniture, face-frame, and shelving joinery. If your project calls for a different dowel diameter, Kreg's 1\/4 in. and 1\/2 in. dowel drill bits are the matching sizes for those pin sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n
