Build pocket-hole projects wherever you work with the Kreg Pocket-Hole Jig 520PRO. Designed for woodworkers who need flexibility, portability and reliable joining performance, this versatile jig makes it easy to create strong pocket-hole joints in a wide range of woodworking applications. Whether working in a workshop, garage, driveway or on-site, the 520PRO provides a convenient solution for drilling pocket holes without relying on a fixed workstation.
At the centre of its design is the innovative VersaGrip™ handle, which rotates through 360° to accommodate different working positions. This allows users to position the jig around larger boards, timber panels and other workpieces without constantly repositioning the material. The handle also incorporates a built-in clamping mechanism, allowing operators to secure the workpiece simply by squeezing the handle.
For additional stability, Kreg's GripMaxx™ anti-slip surface helps hold the material securely during drilling. This reduces unwanted movement and supports consistent pocket-hole positioning, particularly when working with larger components or drilling in different orientations.
The Pocket-Hole Jig 520PRO accommodates materials from 1/2" (13mm) to 1 1/2" (38mm) thick. Preset material thickness settings of 1/2" (13mm), 3/4" (19mm) and 1 1/2" (38mm) simplify setup, allowing users to select the appropriate drill guide position quickly. An adjustable stop provides repeatability when drilling multiple pocket holes in workpieces of similar thickness.
Built for regular woodworking applications, the jig features durable, impact-resistant construction with a steel-reinforced spine. Hardened steel drill guides provide accurate drill bit guidance and are backed by a lifetime drill-guide warranty, offering long-term durability for repeated pocket-hole drilling.
A built-in drill chip ejection port helps clear wood chips from the drilling area, reducing debris accumulation around the drill guides. Meanwhile, the compact and lightweight design makes the jig convenient to carry between projects and working locations.
The Kreg 520PRO is supplied with essential accessories for pocket-hole joinery, including an Easy-Set Drill Bit, driver bit, stop collar, hex wrench, 2" (51mm) Classic Face Clamp and 100 Kreg pocket-hole screws. A downloadable project plan is also included, allowing users to begin planning and building their next woodworking project.
For additional versatility, the jig is compatible with selected Kreg accessories, including the Micro-Pocket™ Drill Guide Kit 530, Kreg Docking Station and Pocket-Hole Jig Clamp. These optional accessories allow users to expand their setup for specialised drilling applications or convert the portable jig into a benchtop joining system.
Whether assembling furniture, constructing cabinets, building shelving or completing general woodworking projects, the Kreg Pocket-Hole Jig 520PRO combines flexible positioning, secure clamping and convenient adjustment features to make pocket-hole joinery faster, easier and more accessible.
The Kreg Pocket-Hole Jig 520PRO features a VersaGrip™ handle that rotates through 360°, allowing users to position the jig in different orientations according to the workpiece and available working space.
This flexible design is particularly useful when working with large boards, panels or components that are difficult to position in a conventional stationary pocket-hole jig.
Instead of moving the entire workpiece to suit the jig, users can reposition the 520PRO to access the required drilling location.
The VersaGrip™ handle incorporates an integrated clamping mechanism that allows users to secure the workpiece by squeezing the handle.
This combines positioning and clamping into a convenient handheld operation, reducing the need for a separate clamping arrangement during suitable drilling tasks.
The built-in clamping system makes the jig particularly practical for portable woodworking applications and projects involving larger materials.
The integrated GripMaxx™ anti-slip surface helps prevent the workpiece from shifting while drilling pocket holes.
By maintaining a secure grip on the material, the system supports accurate drilling and consistent pocket-hole positioning.
This feature complements the built-in clamping mechanism, helping users maintain control when drilling in different orientations.
The Kreg 520PRO features preset material thickness settings on the drill guide block, allowing users to prepare the jig quickly for commonly used woodworking materials.
These settings simplify drill guide adjustment and help reduce setup time when moving between different material thicknesses.
The jig incorporates an adjustable stop that helps users maintain consistent positioning when drilling multiple pocket holes in similar workpieces.
This feature is particularly useful for repetitive woodworking tasks, such as preparing furniture components, cabinet frames and shelving assemblies.
By providing a repeatable reference position, the adjustable stop helps improve workflow efficiency and consistency.
The Kreg Pocket-Hole Jig 520PRO incorporates hardened steel drill guides designed to maintain accurate drill bit positioning during repeated use.
These guides help direct the drill bit at the appropriate angle for creating pocket holes, supporting consistent joint preparation.
The hardened steel drill guides are backed by a lifetime warranty, providing additional reassurance for long-term woodworking applications.
The 520PRO features durable, impact-resistant construction with a steel-reinforced spine.
This reinforced design provides structural rigidity and stability during drilling, making the jig suitable for regular use in workshops and portable woodworking environments.
Its robust construction complements the hardened steel drill guides to support dependable pocket-hole drilling performance.
The compact design of the Kreg 520PRO makes it convenient to transport between different working locations.
Unlike larger stationary pocket-hole jigs, the 520PRO can be positioned directly on suitable workpieces, providing flexibility when working with oversized boards or panels.
This makes it a practical choice for woodworking projects in garages, home workshops, driveways and other temporary working areas.
The Pocket-Hole Jig 520PRO includes a drill chip ejection port that helps clear wood chips generated during pocket-hole drilling.
By reducing chip accumulation around the drill guides, this feature helps maintain a cleaner drilling area and supports smoother operation during repetitive tasks.
The Kreg Pocket-Hole Jig 520PRO is designed to work with selected Kreg accessories, allowing users to expand its functionality according to their woodworking requirements.
For example, the Kreg Docking Station provides an option for creating a more permanent benchtop joining arrangement, while the Micro-Pocket™ Drill Guide Kit 530 supports compatible smaller pocket-hole applications.
The Kreg Pocket-Hole Jig Clamp offers an additional clamping option for suitable workstation configurations.
These accessories are available separately and allow users to adapt the jig for different projects without replacing the main tool.
Please Note: The Kreg Docking Station, Pocket-Hole Jig Clamp and Micro-Pocket™ Drill Guide Kit 530 are optional accessories and are not included in the supplied package.
Please Note: A power drill is not included and must be supplied separately. The lifetime warranty specified by the manufacturer applies to the drill guides.
