The drill head has at least one outer cutting edge in a front face thereof. A stabilizing central drill bit extends from the front face and beyond the outer cutting edge. The cutting edge has an elevated leading edge portion and a downward sloping trailing portion with an inwardly extending cutting surface. A concave well is defined between the outer cutting edge and the central drill bit. The trailing portion tapers to at least the front face from which the central drill bit extends and to an angulated web portion. The concave well retains undrilled product pieces about the central drill bit whereas the web portion permits evacuation of loose drilled material. |
