Spade Drill Bits are also referred to as paddle
bits and are excellent flat blades. They're
commonly employed by tradesmen like electricians
and plumbers for drilling holes in studs in walls
for running wiring or pipes. Still, they even
have an area within the woodshop for drilling on
fair woodworking projects.

WHAT IS A SPADE BIT?
The spade bit is a flat, broad blade of a bit
that features a pilot point attached to a
1/4-inch diameter shank, which is chucked into
both regularly-chucked drills and quick-chuck
impact drivers. Each fringe of the spade bit's
flattened portion is sharpened, and therefore the
bottom corners of the sharpened area have a
pointed tip, counting on the design and brand of
the bit.

TIPS FOR USING A SPADE BIT

• There are various methods for drilling clean
  holes with a spade bit, such as
• Tightly attaching a sacrificial board to the
  backside of the workpiece when drilling, OR
• Drilling partway through the workpiece until the
  pilot point penetrates through the wood, then
  reversing the board and completing the opening by
  drilling from the backside.

HOW TO USE THE SPADE BIT?

• Mark the middle point of the opening to be
  drilled on the wood, and chuck the shank of the
  bit into the drill.
• Align the purpose of the pilot tip of the bit
  with the mark on the wood and adjust the
  hand-held drill's angle so that the shank of the
  Spade drill bit for metal is square and
  perpendicular to the surface of the wood.
