Spade Bits

Our Spade Bits for Sale

We offer many spade bits from top brands. Diameters range from 1/4 inch to 1 1/2 inches, and length options include 5 3/4 inches, 6 inches and 16 inches. Our inventory includes:

Bosch™ Daredevil^® Spade Bits

Bosch™ Daredevil^® spade bits quickly cut holes in virtually any material. Bosch™ spade bits feature a patented self feed tip that holds the bit in place. The spur tips pre-cut the wood during drilling to make it easier for the spade bit to break through. The contours on the paddles collect and eject chips from the hole for faster drilling.

The Bosch™ Daredevil^® spade bits in our inventory are available in extended and stubby lengths. The extended length helps with deeper hole drilling, while the stubby length is for shallow holes and out-of-reach areas.

Milwaukee^® Flat Boring Bits

Milwaukee^® flat boring bits can drill through nearly any material. These spade bits are made from heat-treated high-carbon steel, a durable and long-lasting material. The drill point and spur tips can be resharpened, which extends the life of the bit and saves you money since you can use the same cutter for the entire project.

Our spade bits by Milwaukee^® are available in many diameters and lengths. If you need to drill different hole sizes, get a flat boring bit set to have a range of options on hand.

Applications for Spade Bits

Compared to holesaws and self feed bits, spade bits make the smallest-diameter holes, coming in at 1 1/2 inches or less. Use a spade bit when cutting a small hole that does not require a smooth finish. When the spade bit breaks through the material, it may leave a rough edge — if necessary, the resulting burrs can be smoothed with a sanding sheet.

Electricians, plumbers, construction workers and similar professionals often use spade bits to drill through:

• Wall studs and floor joists: Spade bits create room for electrical wiring in a structure.
• Top plates: Drilling through the top plate is required for copper and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe installation.
• Treated planes: A spade bit can drill through a treated plane for foundations.
• Treated decks: Drill through a treated deck to attach a wood frame and deck ledger.

Common materials to drill with spade bits include softwoods, plastic, laminated composite material, treated and untreated construction lumber, plywood and oriented strand board (OSB).
