Product identity
The M.A. Ford 20712500 Twister Brad Spur Drill is a 1/8 inch cutting accessory designed for woodworkers and general tradespeople who need clean entry holes in timber. It suits bench drills and handheld machines where a brad point helps prevent wandering at the start of the cut.
Sustained cutting behaviour
The brad point centres the drill quickly, reducing the force needed to maintain a straight hole during extended use. Heat builds more slowly than with standard twist bits, so the edge stays sharper across repeated holes in softwood and hardwood.
Shank and chuck compatibility
The straight shank fits standard three-jaw chucks down to 1/8 inch capacity, making it usable on most drill presses and cordless drills. Users with keyless chucks that cannot grip below 3 mm will need a different bit or a collet adapter.

Questions about this item
How much heat or vibration does the Twister Brad Spur Drill 1/8 generate during extended drilling sessions?
The drill bit produces typical cutting heat for high-speed steel when run continuously; use cutting fluid and allow cooling pauses to manage temperature.
What shank size or chuck capacity must my drill press or hand drill accept for the 20712500 bit to fit?
The bit has a standard 1/8 inch diameter shank, so any chuck that grips 1/8 inch or 3 mm round shanks will hold it securely.
Will the Twister Brad Spur Drill 1/8 work reliably in older drill presses that run at lower RPM ranges?
Yes, the brad-point geometry cuts cleanly at modest speeds; simply reduce feed pressure to match the slower spindle speed of vintage machines.
