The two most common bits you will need to install the HOVR bracket If you are new to Hovr, you will need to grab a bit pack depending on your installation method. This pack include s: 17/64" HSS Jobber Drill Bit 135" Split Point Black Oxide In order to make extra holes in the female bracket, first we need a 17/64" Cobalt Jobber Drill Bit (or you can use even a 7/64 inch bit). This is the bit you need to pre-drill the hole for then tapping (thread) the hole with the #18 5/16 tap bit. If you are using set screws, you will need a 17/64 HSS Steel Drill Bit to drill the pilot holes for the set screws. 5/16" - 18 HSS Plug Taper Bit Once we have drilled the initial hole, we then need a tapping bit. We can use a Bottoming Tap, a Plug Tap or a Taper Tap. For our use, we prefer a Taper Tap Bit 5/16 Inch #18. These taps narrow a bit at the tip, therefore they can be inserted easier into the hole we drilled earlier. The 5/16" - 18 HSS Plug Taper Bit will create the threads needed for the hole. We recommend 3/4" Set Screws to lock in your HOVR brackets *Please note the packaging may not be as seen Show more
