Center drill bits are used in metalworking to provide a starting hole for a larger sized drill bit, or a conical indentation in the end of a workpiece to mount a lathe center.
Centre drills wander as easily as anything else in hand-held power drills - for such operations, a centre punch should be used to spot the planned hole centre prior to drilling a pilot hole.
In industry, virtually all drilling is done by automated machines, and the bits are often automatically replaced by the equipment as they wear, as even with their solid carbide construction, they still have a short lifespan.
