DescriptionThe Unicode character ⌴, or U+2334, known as the "Counterbore," is part of the "Miscellaneous Technical" block, in the "Symbol, Other" category in the Unicode standard. This symbol is particularly useful in technical drawings, blueprints, or diagrams where it signifies a counterbore, a specific type of feature in machining and manufacturing. A counterbore is a cylindrical flat-bottomed hole that enlarges another coaxial hole, often used to house a screw head or bolt, which ensures it does not protrude above the surface of the material.
