Long 12-inch spade bit for through-stud reach -- single-pass drilling across double top plates, stacked headers, and back-to-back stud bays for electrical cable and plumbing supply runs. Standard length for cable-fishing and rough-in work where a 6-inch bit cannot reach the back of the bay.

• Cutting diameter: 3/8"
• Overall length: 12"
• 1/4" hex quick-change shank fits all standard hex chucks and quick-change adapters
• Hardened high-carbon steel construction stays sharp longer than mild-steel bits
• Standard arched cutting spurs define a clean hole edge and clear chips quickly
• Tri-point tip with center spur for accurate, walk-free starts
• Flat ground cutting zone -- re-sharpen with a common flat file
• Heavy-duty single-piece construction shank eliminates flex and bit wobble
• Black oxide finish resists corrosion in damp framing and weatherized job sites

Tip: The 3/8" diameter is sized for pilot holes for 1/2" lags, small cable runs (single low-voltage drops), 3/8" dowel and Forstner-style starter holes. For close-quarter remodel work, drop down to the 4" Stubby or the 6" standard length.
