Robert Bosch Tool Group DLSB1003 Spade Bit 3/8 in 5pk

Product Description

The ROBERT BOSCH TOOL GROUP DLSB1003 is a Daredevil spade bit designed for fast, accurate boring through wood and wood-composite materials. Measuring 3/8 inch in diameter with an overall length of 16 inches and a usable drilling depth of 15 inches, this bit reaches deep into framing members and structural lumber where standard-length bits fall short. The full cone threaded tip pulls the bit into the material for self-starting entry without excessive downward pressure. Electricians, plumbers, and general contractors use this bit when running conduit, pipe, or wire through wall studs and floor joists. This package contains 5 bits.

The DLSB1003 is suited for residential and light commercial rough-in work where holes need to be bored through multiple framing members in a single pass. The 15-inch drilling depth makes it practical for deep-reach applications in thick assemblies. The 1/4-inch hex shank seats into standard quick-change drill chucks and impact-rated bit holders, reducing setup time on the job.
