P80 Jig Kit with Drill Bits: Precision Tools for Polymer80 Builds
Building a Polymer80 frame requires accuracy, and the right jig makes all the difference. This P80 Jig Kit includes everything needed to drill clean, properly aligned holes for pins and components. Durable construction ensures repeatable results, whether you’re finishing your first build or your tenth. Paired with included high-speed drill bits, it eliminates guesswork for a secure fit.
Key Specifications
- Material: Reinforced polymer jig with hardened steel drill bushings
- Included Bits: 3mm and 4mm high-speed steel (HSS) drill bits
- Compatibility: Designed for Polymer80 PF940v1 (Glock 17/22) frames
- Finish: Non-slip textured surface for stable workbench mounting
- Weight: 12 oz (jig only)
Feature Breakdown
The jig’s precision-molded polymer body aligns with Polymer80’s frame design, ensuring holes are drilled at factory-spec depths and angles. Steel bushings prevent bit wander and reduce heat buildup during drilling. Unlike universal jigs, this unit is purpose-built for the PF940v1, minimizing tolerance stacking errors that can affect pin fit.
Included drill bits are sized specifically for Polymer80’s pin diameters and made from hardened HSS for extended wear. The 3mm bit handles trigger and locking block pins, while the 4mm bit is for the rear rail module. Both feature split-point tips for cleaner entry cuts and reduced burring compared to standard twist bits.
Textured base grips work surfaces firmly, preventing shifts during drilling. The jig’s open-top design allows visual confirmation of bit alignment before starting. Recessed channels guide the drill vertically, critical for maintaining perpendicularity when drilling polymer frames that lack metal reinforcement.
This kit is designed for builders who prioritize repeatability. The jig withstands multiple uses without bushing deformation, making it suitable for batch builds or correcting out-of-spec holes. Drill bits can be replaced separately if worn, though HSS construction provides longer service life than carbon steel alternatives.
Compatibility Notes
This jig is engineered exclusively for Polymer80 PF940v1 frames (Glock 17/22 Gen3 compatible). It will not function with PF940v2 (Glock 19/23), PF940C, or other frame variants due to differing pin locations. Always verify your frame model before purchase.
Installation Overview
Secure the jig to a stable surface using clamps or a vise. Insert the frame into the jig, ensuring full seating against alignment posts. Use the marked bushings to select the correct bit size for each hole. Drill at moderate speed (800-1,200 RPM) with steady pressure—excessive speed may melt polymer. Clear chips frequently and deburr holes post-drilling.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this work with aftermarket frames?
A: Only if they are exact clones of the Polymer80 PF940v1. Even minor dimensional differences can affect alignment.
Q: Can I use my own drill bits?
A: Not recommended. Standard bits may flex or wander without the bushing support, risking misaligned holes.
Q: How many uses can I expect from the jig?
A: The steel bushings allow hundreds of cycles if maintained properly. Avoid forcing oversized bits.
Q: Why does my frame feel tight after drilling?
A: Some friction is normal. Polymer80 frames often require light reaming or pin polishing for smooth assembly.
Q: Are instructions included?
A: The jig has engraved markings for hole identification. General build guides are available from Polymer80.
Warranty & Shipping
This kit is covered by a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects. Drill bits are consumables and not warrantied for wear. Ships in unbranded packaging with protective foam to prevent bushing damage during transit. Continental US orders typically ship within 2 business days.
