Product Description The 500x drill bit sharpener will repair and sharpen dull and damaged carbide, Cobalt, high-speed steel, black oxide, tin-coated, twist and masonry drill bits from 3/32” to 1/2”. point angles can be set to 118° or 135° and can create or remove split points. The 500x is equipped with a 6’ grounded power cord, and comes with a user guide. Every Drill Doctor is assembled in the USA from domestic and imported parts and comes with a 3 year warranty. Amazon.com Instead of throwing away old, dull bits, give them a checkup with the Drill Doctor and extend their life. Although drill-bit sharpening systems often fail to live up to our expectations, we're here to bear witness for the truth of the Drill Doctor's claims: it really does sharpen old bits in just a couple of minutes. The 500SP (also known as the Tradesman) works on conventional, split-point, and masonry bits. It can sharpen bits from 3/32 to 1/2 inches in size, and though the machine will also work for 3/4-inch bits, we'd recommend buying the Professional model for doctoring these big boys, as it comes with a special chuck the 500SP lacks. Both models--the 500SP and the Professional 750SP--allow you to choose between a 118- and 135-degree sharpening angle. Operation is fairly simple, but to make sure no one has trouble figuring it out, the Drill Doctor comes with a how-to video. Anyone who frequently wears down drill bits is going to appreciate the savings this handy machine can offer. Using sharp bits instead of dull ones also increases the life of your drill, because sharper bits require less work to make the same hole. We only wish we'd found the Drill Doctor sooner. --Brian Trinen From the Manufacturer Sharpen it up. Renew dull, worn-out drill bits to precision sharpness, saving time and money. With this drill bit sharpener, you'll be able to sharpen the complete range of drill bits (3/32-inch to 1/2-inch), metric, number, and letter sizes. The point-style control handle allows for conventional point, split point, and masonry drill bit sharpening. The super-abrasive and long-lasting diamond wheel sharpens high-speed steel, cobalt, and carbide drill bits with a precalibrated drill bit length setting. A steel stop plate assures consistent and maintenance-free drill bit grind-depth control and alignment. You can sharpen ordinary standard drill bits into fast-cutting, self-centering, split-point drill bits or change the point angle to meet your specific needs (118 or 135 degrees).
