A counterbore is a cylindrical flat-bottomed hole that enlarges another coaxial hole, or the tool used to create that feature. A counterbore hole is typically used when a fastener, such as a socket head cap screw or fillister head screw, is required to sit flush with or below the level of a workpiece’s surface.

What is the difference between countersink and counterbore?
The difference between them is the angle at which the larger hole is drilled. A countersink’s larger hole is tapered at an angle; whereas a counterbore is drilled straight into the material and leaves a flat bottom between the counterbore and the narrower inner shaft.
