Diablo Spade Bit DSP2160 1-3/8 Inch x 6 Inch Single Pack Impact Rated Hex Shank Self-Feeding SPEED-TIP Wood Boring Drill Attachment Framing Lumber

High-Speed Wood Boring Attachment with Threaded Self-Feeding Tip for High-Torque Impact Drivers

The Diablo DSP2160 1-3/8-Inch x 6-Inch Wood Spade Bit is a heavy-duty boring attachment engineered for drilling rapid utility openings and structural pathways through framing lumber. Equipped with a threaded SPEED-TIP self-feeding design, this quick-change bit pulls itself through softwoods and hardwoods automatically under low axial force to diminish user fatigue during high-volume contractor rough-ins. A standardized 1/4-inch hex shank delivers Impact Strong structural durability inside high-torque drivers, coordinating a proprietary curved paddle geometry for immediate chip clearing with an angled cutting spur that scores clean hole entries to prevent back-side blowout.

Best Used For:

• Large Conduit Wiring Rough-In: Bores 1-3/8 inch structural pathways through nominal wood studs and top plates to route commercial or residential power lines.
• Utility Plumbing Pass-Throughs: Drills high-velocity clearance holes inside structural floor joists and subfloors to run industrial water lines or waste piping.
• Heavy Framing Structural Alterations: Executes straight, controlled perpendicular cuts into natural hardwoods, softwoods, and thick pressure-treated structural timbers.

Key Performance & Safety Features

• SPEED-TIP Self-Feed Threading: Threaded pilot guide tip draws the bit into wood framing mechanically, eliminating the necessity for heavy physical operator pushing force.
• Curved Paddle Material Conveyor: Concave paddle geometry forces out dense wood fibers instantly, suppressing thermal friction and maximizing driver battery lifespan.
• Impact Strong Hex Shank: Hardened 1/4-inch quick-change hex interface locks securely into impact tooling collets to prevent chuck spinning and rotational shear.
• Angled Spur Scoring Edge: Leading edge side spurs sever wood grains along the outer circumference before core lift occurs, ensuring clean entries with minimized blowout.
• Multi-Platform System Compatibility: Custom-engineered tool geometry achieves peak mechanical efficiency in corded or cordless impact tools and standard drill chuck assemblies.

What's Included

• (1) Diablo 1-3/8" x 6" SPEEDemon™ Wood Spade Bit (DSP2160)

Technical Specifications

Pro-Tip: Allow the threaded tip to draw the spade bit through structural wood profiles at a controlled speed without leaning your full weight into the driver; forcing the drive manually may jam the curved paddle system in sticky sap pockets or dense structural lumber knots.
