Robert Bosch Tool Group DSBS1011 Spade Bit 7/8 Inch 5 Pack

Product Description

The ROBERT BOSCH TOOL GROUP DSBS1011 is a 7/8-inch spade bit designed for fast, clean wood boring in residential and commercial construction and trade work. Sold in a 5-piece pack, it features a full cone threaded tip that pulls the bit into the material for effortless drilling without manual downforce. The contoured paddle design accelerates chip removal from the bore hole, while spur and reamer tips at the cutting edges reduce breakout and produce cleaner hole edges. The hex shank includes a power groove that locks into drill chucks and impact-rated bit holders to prevent slippage under load. This bit is built for high-volume drilling tasks where hole quality and speed both matter.

The DSBS1011 is suited for electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors who need to bore 7/8-inch holes through wood framing, joists, studs, and sheathing. Common applications include running conduit, cable, PEX, copper pipe, and flex duct through wood structural members. The 5-piece pack is practical for job sites where bits are shared across a crew or where high-cycle use leads to regular replacement. The hex shank is compatible with standard 3/8-inch and 1/2-inch drill chucks as well as quick-change hex-shank systems.

Installation Notes

Installation of this bit is performed by electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and carpenters during rough-in phases. Ensure the drill is set to an appropriate speed for the material being bored and that the bit is fully seated in the chuck before operation. When boring near structural members, follow applicable building codes and framing notch-and-hole guidelines. Wear appropriate eye protection to guard against chip ejection during use.
