Freud DSP2980-S16 Spade Bit Set 16 Piece Wood Boring

Product Description

The FREUD DSP2980-S16 is a 16-piece Speed Demon spade bit set designed for fast, clean hole boring in wood. The set covers 16 sizes from 1/4 inch through 1-1/2 inch, giving electricians, plumbers, and carpenters a single kit for rough-in drilling in framing, joists, and plates. A high-performance speed-tip design self-feeds for faster hole making compared to traditional spade bits, while an optimized curved paddle design improves chip evacuation to deliver more holes per battery charge. The impact-strong shank construction provides added stability and durability in both cordless and corded impact drivers and drill drivers.

This set is suited for residential and light commercial rough-in work where drilling through dimensional lumber, engineered wood, and wood framing is required. Trade professionals running conduit, pipe, or cable through studs and joists will find the full size range covers most standard rough-in hole sizes in a single kit. The set performs in corded drill drivers and cordless impact drivers, making it compatible with the tools already on most job sites.

Installation Notes

Spade bit sets of this type are installed and used by electricians, plumbers, and carpenters performing rough-in drilling work. Confirm the driver chuck size accommodates the shank before use. When drilling through load-bearing framing members, follow applicable building codes regarding hole placement and size relative to member dimensions. Keep bits clear of embedded fasteners, and inspect shanks for deformation after heavy impact-driver use.
