Spade bits for FRP boring

Long lasting carbide coated spade bits work great drilling through FRP–up 
to 2" thick. These flat-blade spade bits make fast work of drilling through PVC pipe wrapped in FRP, transite, and other filled plastics. Used in drill presses and Mag drills for drilling flanges. Lean on handle, pull-up a few times to pull-out shavings, and it's like cutting through butter. These last long enough to be less expensive than resharpening carbide drills. Won't burn up like uncoated bits. Also called paddle bits or flat bits. 6" OAL.

Cutting edge is hard tungsten carbide. Grooved point and cutting edges are designed for fast, clean boring. Flats ground on sides of the 1/4" shank, for use in 3-jaw chucks. They last long and don't walk as much as other bits. Recommended turning speed: 1500–2000 RPM. Maximum RPM: 2,500.
