In addition to long life, the spade bits have an optimized point tip that is wider and longer than previous IRWIN spade bits and is designed to minimize splintering and control speed. The parabolic scoop allows for a large cutting area for aggressive removal of wood chips and fast drilling. Further, the reinforced 1/4'' quick change shank allows the SPEEDBOR® Spade Bits to be used in standard chucks in drills, as well as impact drivers.

The new SPEEDBOR® Spade Bits are ideal for woodworkers, electricians, and general contractors. They are available for individual purchase or in multiple set configurations, including IRWIN medium storage cases.

"IRWIN SPEEDBOR® Spade Bits have been enhanced to give users the speed, life and precision they need, and in certain sizes, to cut more holes in less time – it's that simple," said Jeff Burrill, Product Manager. "The SPEEDBOR® Spade Bits redesign focused on these three aspects and the new bits deliver quality and performance that stand up to jobsite demands."
