Freud DSP1060 Speed Demon Spade Bit 1x4 Inch 5 Pack

Product Description

The FREUD DSP1060 is a 1 inch by 4 inch Speed Demon spade bit designed for fast, clean hole drilling in wood. Sold in a pack of 5, this bit features a high-performance speed-tip that self-feeds into the material, reducing the effort required to drive through solid wood compared to standard spade bits. The optimized curved paddle design improves chip evacuation, keeping the cutting path clear and allowing more holes per battery charge on cordless tools. The shank is impact-rated for use in both corded and cordless impact drivers and drill drivers, providing added stability and durability under high-torque conditions.

The DSP1060 is suited for general carpentry, rough framing, electrical rough-in, plumbing rough-in, and any trade application requiring clean, fast boring through dimensional lumber, engineered wood, or structural members. The 4 inch overall length provides adequate reach for standard framing applications. The 5-piece pack makes it a practical stock item for crews running multiple drills or for replacing worn bits on active job sites. Electricians and plumbers doing rough-in work will find the self-feeding tip useful for maintaining consistent hole placement without excessive downward pressure.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified tradespeople following applicable codes such as the NEC for electrical rough-in or the IPC for plumbing applications. Ensure the tool is powered off and the battery is removed or the tool is unplugged before changing bits. Secure the workpiece before drilling to prevent movement. Do not force the bit through material at a rate that causes binding or overheating of the shank.
