Eagle Cutting Tool SB-WB.687 Long Spade Drill Bit 11/16 in

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL SB-WB.687 is a long spade drill bit sized at 11/16 inches, designed for boring through wood and wood-based materials. Spade bits cut fast and clean when drilling through dimensional lumber, engineered wood, and rough framing stock. This bit is a standard tool in the kits of electricians, plumbers, and carpenters who need to run wire, pipe, or conduit through wood framing members. The 11/16-inch diameter is a commonly specified size for cable and conduit rough-in work.

This spade drill bit is suited for residential and light commercial rough-in applications where wood boring is required. Electricians use this size to pass NM cable or conduit through studs and joists. Plumbers reach for spade bits when drilling through framing for supply or drain lines. The long-pattern design provides added reach in tight or deep framing cavities where a standard-length bit falls short.

Key Features

• 11/16-inch cutting diameter for precise hole sizing in wood framing and sheathing
• Long-pattern design extends reach for deep or obstructed boring applications
• Spade geometry allows fast material removal in softwood and hardwood
• Suitable for rough-in drilling by electricians, plumbers, and finish carpenters

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard hex-shank or round-shank drill chucks and right-angle drill attachments commonly used in wood rough-in work.

Installation Notes

A licensed electrician or plumber typically uses spade bits during rough-in framing phases before walls are closed. Secure the workpiece before drilling to prevent kickback, and use a drill with adequate torque for the bit diameter. Follow local building codes regarding hole placement and maximum hole size relative to framing member dimensions. Keep the bit clear of nails, screws, or embedded fasteners that can damage the cutting edge or cause the drill to grab.
