IRWIN 88716 SPEEDBOR Spade Drill Bit, in Drill Bit Size, Hex, Carbon Steel

When access and precision matter, the IRWIN Tools SPEEDBOR spade drill bit delivers reliable performance for woodworking and security installations. This IRWIN SPEEDBOR 88716 extra-long spade bit is engineered for contractors and technicians who need to drill clean, consistent 1-in holes through thick timber and access panels. The 16-in overall length gives you the reach to bore through wide stock or chase holes for running low-voltage and surveillance cables without dismantling assemblies. A patented Blue-Groove cutting edge and double spurs reduce breakout and accelerate chip evacuation, so holes come out round with minimal tear-out—saving time on finishing and rework. The robust hex shank provides secure grip and improved torque transfer in standard drills, while the thicker cutting lip extends tool life on demanding job sites. Use this carbon steel spade bit for installing security cameras, routing network and monitoring lines, or general construction tasks that require dependable long-reach drilling. Add the IRWIN SPEEDBOR 1-in x 16-in spade bit to your kit for faster, cleaner holes on every installation.
