Freud DSP3030 Speed Demon Spade Bit 5/8x16 in 5 Pack

Product Description

The FREUD DSP3030 is a Speed Demon spade bit designed for fast, clean hole boring in wood. Measuring 5/8 inches in diameter and 16 inches in length, this bit features a high-performance speed-tip that self-feeds to reduce effort and increase drilling speed compared to standard spade bits. The optimized curved paddle design improves chip evacuation, helping maintain performance over multiple holes per battery charge. Built impact strong, the shank is engineered for increased stability and durability in both cordless and corded impact drivers and drill drivers. This package includes 5 bits.

The DSP3030 is suited for residential and light commercial rough-in work where long-reach boring is required. Electricians, plumbers, and carpenters use extended spade bits like this to bore through wall plates, floor joists, and structural lumber when running conduit, pipe, or cable. The 16-inch length provides the reach needed for through-framing applications without requiring a bit extension.

Installation Notes

Installation of this bit is performed by electricians, plumbers, and carpenters during rough-in framing stages. Secure the bit firmly in the chuck before operation and verify the chuck is fully tightened. When boring through lumber near structural fasteners or knots, reduce feed pressure to avoid binding. Always wear appropriate eye protection and follow applicable safety codes when operating drilling equipment.
