The DIABLO 1-1/8″ Paddle Bit is a heavy-duty drill bit designed for drilling large holes in wood and other soft materials. Paddle bits, also known as spade bits, feature a wide, flat blade that provides efficient cutting with minimal effort. This particular size, 1-1/8 inch in diameter, is ideal for applications where larger holes are needed.

Key Features:

1. Size: 1-1/8″ diameter, providing the capacity to drill large, clean holes quickly.
2. High-Quality Construction: Made from high-carbon steel for increased durability and longer lifespan.
3. Pointed Tip: The pointed center tip helps guide the bit into the material, ensuring precise, accurate hole placement and reducing the risk of wandering.
4. Wide Flat Blade Design: The broad, flat cutting surface helps to remove material quickly, reducing drilling time and enhancing productivity.
5. Sharp Cutting Edges: The edges are designed to reduce friction and heat buildup, which prolongs the bit’s life and ensures smoother operation.
6. Hex Shank: Many DIABLO paddle bits come with a hex shank, which securely fits into power drills and reduces slippage during operation.

Ideal Applications:

• Drilling large-diameter holes in wood, plywood, MDF, and other soft materials.
• Commonly used for tasks like running wires, installing piping, or making larger holes for fasteners or other hardware.
• Suitable for both professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts.

The DIABLO 1-1/8″ Paddle Bit is an efficient tool for drilling large, clean holes in a variety of materials, offering excellent performance and durability for a wide range of tasks.
