Diablo DSPD4010 1/2-Inch x 6-Inch Demo Demon™ Spade Bit

The Diablo DSPD4010 is a 1/2-inch diameter by 6-inch overall length Demo Demon™ spade bit engineered to bore clean holes through tough, nail-embedded wood during demolition and rough-in framing applications. Built with DEMO-Edge™ dual cutting edges and a self-feeding Dura-Tip™, this high-performance wood-drilling tool maintains extreme edge sharpness and cuts through hidden steel fasteners without stalling. Featuring a curved paddle geometry for rapid chip ejection and an Impact Strong™ 1/4-inch hex shank, it integrates directly with high-torque corded and cordless impact drivers to deliver up to 60X longer lifespan than standard spade bits.

Best Used For:

  • Electrical & Plumbing Rough-In Routing: Drilling precise 1/2-inch passages through floor joists, wall studs, and top plates for wiring runs and small conduit.
  • Demolition & Structural Remodeling: Boring rapidly through aged framing timber containing embedded framing nails, screws, and staple fasteners without bit failure.
  • High-Efficiency Battery-Powered Boring: Minimizing drag friction and chip clogging during continuous wood-milling passes to optimize holes per charge on cordless tools.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • DEMO-Edge™ Dual Cutting Edges: Heavy-duty cutting tooth geometry delivers power to slice through steel fasteners and extends tool life up to 60X.
  • Self-Feeding Dura-Tip™: Threaded pilot tip pulls the bit through timber automatically while absorbing high impact force from direct nail strikes.
  • Curved Paddle Chip Clearance: High-volume curved paddle geometry clears wood chips continuously to prevent binding, friction heat, and motor overload.
  • Impact Strong™ 1/4-Inch Hex Shank: Solid steel hex shank resists torsional shear forces and prevents slippage in impact drivers and quick-change chucks.
  • Clean Entry & Exit Hole Scoring: Specialized spur geometry scores perimeter wood fibers cleanly to minimize surface splintering and tear-out.

What's Included

  • (1) Diablo 1/2" x 6" Demo Demon™ Spade Bit for Nail-Embedded Wood (Model DSPD4010)
