Bosch DSBS1021 Daredevil 1-1/2 in Spade Bit 5-pack

Product Description

The ROBERT BOSCH TOOL GROUP DSBS1021 is a 1-1/2 inch Daredevil spade bit designed for fast, accurate wood boring in demanding jobsite conditions. The full cone threaded tip pulls the bit into the material quickly, reducing the force needed to start and maintain the cut. A contoured paddle geometry accelerates chip removal to keep the hole clear during drilling. The hex shank power groove locks into compatible chucks to minimize slippage under high torque. Spur and reamer tips score the perimeter of the hole before the paddle clears the waste, delivering cleaner entry and reduced breakout on the exit face. Sold in a 5-pack.

This spade bit is suited for residential and light commercial rough-in work where 1-1/2 inch bores are required through dimensional lumber, engineered wood, or subflooring. Typical applications include running pipe, conduit, cable, or wire through framing members. Electricians, plumbers, and low-voltage installers will find the reduced-breakout geometry useful when boring through visible or finish-adjacent surfaces. The hex shank is compatible with standard 1/4 inch hex quick-change chuck systems as well as keyed and keyless drill chucks.

Installation Notes

Spade bits of this type are installed by electricians, plumbers, and carpenters performing rough-in boring through wood framing. Ensure the drill is set to an appropriate speed for the material density before starting the bore. Confirm no live electrical conductors or pressurized lines are present in the work area before drilling through existing framing. Secure the workpiece when possible to prevent movement and maintain bit alignment through the cut.
