Introducing the Diablo DSP3040 3/4" x 16" Spade Bit for Wood — a purpose-built solution for fast, clean, deep-hole drilling in wooden projects. Built on the trusted Freud/Diablo engineering ethos, this bit delivers actionable performance where it matters: speed, accuracy, and long-term durability in real-world woodworking tasks.
Why the DSP3040 stands apart
- SPEED-TIP self-feeds mean quicker starts and less wandering, so you’ll punch through boards with fewer passes and less effort than traditional spade bits.
- Curved Paddle design optimizes chip evacuation, keeping holes clear and reducing heat buildup for consistent results, hole after hole.
- 16" length enables deep drilling through thick stock, cabinetry, framing, or furniture components without needing a backup bit change.
- 3/4" diameter creates larger holes suitable for wiring passes, dowels, or hardware installations, while maintaining clean edges.
- Impact Strong shank provides enhanced stability and durability when used with cordless and corded impact drivers or standard drill drivers, reducing wobble and extending bit life.
- Quality construction from a trusted brand lineage ensures dependable performance under demanding woodworking tasks.
Ideal use cases
- Routing large-diameter holes for electrical wiring, plumbing, or pass-throughs in studs, panels, and cabinetry.
- Furniture making and cabinetry where clean, precisely sized holes are needed for dowels or fittings.
- Door frames, trim work, and thick stock where long reach and straight, smooth holes matter.
- Projects requiring fewer tool changes and faster throughput with impact drivers or drills.
How to get the best results
For optimal performance with the DSP3040, clamp work securely, use a steady, moderate feed rate, and avoid forcing the bit. Let the SPEED-TIP do the work to reduce wandering, and back the bit out periodically to clear chips and prevent overheating. When drilling through layered materials, start with a shallow pilot hole if needed to guide the bit and maintain straight, true holes.
