88804 Speedbor Spade Drill Bit, 1/4 In., 6 In. OAL

The Irwin 88804 Speedbor Spade Drill Bit is a fast-cutting wood boring tool designed for clean, efficient holes in wood and light metals. Spade bits remove material quickly compared to traditional twist bits, reducing fatigue during repetitive drilling while delivering smooth, professional results. This 1/4-inch bit is ideal for framing, cabinetry, electrical work, dowel holes, and fastener clearance in DIY and professional projects alike.

The distinctive blue-groove point guides the bit straight and marks the centerline for accurate placement. Single-pointed spurs scribe the entry point to minimize splinter and breakout, leaving you with burr-free holes every time. The grooved hex shank grips securely in any standard drill chuck or quick-change chuck, preventing slipping and cam-out during operation.
