The Milwaukee 48-27-0871 is a 7/8-inch flat spade drill bit designed for boring clean, precise holes at any angle in wood, plastic, plywood, and formica. This economical bit is made from heat-treated high carbon steel, allowing the drill point and cutting edge to be resharpened for extended life and cost savings over time.
Spade bits are ideal for fast hole formation in woodworking, carpentry, and general drilling tasks. The patented cutting edge geometry delivers faster boring performance compared to conventional models. With a 6-inch drilling depth, this bit handles most standard applications, and it can be paired with a 12-inch extension for deeper holes when needed.
