The Bosch 2 608 900 354 spade drill bit is made for efficient wood drilling with a diameter of 3.2 cm. This single-piece bit provides fast material removal and produces clean, flat-bottomed holes in wood and other soft materials. Designed for use with standard corded and cordless drills that accept straight-shank bits, it offers reliable performance for general carpentry, installation, and repair tasks.

Advantages

The hardened flat blade and centered point of this spade bit enable accurate positioning and quick chip evacuation, reducing the need for follow-up finishing. Its single-piece construction improves durability under standard working loads and simplifies handling. The 3.2 cm diameter allows making larger holes for cable runs, pipe pass-throughs, dowels, or fastening points while maintaining control and straightness.

Key specifications

• Type: spade (flat) drill bit
• Diameter: 32 mm
• Material compatibility: wood and soft materials
• Shank: straight shank for standard drill chucks
• Construction: single-piece hardened blade with centering point

How to use

Secure the spade bit in the drill chuck ensuring the shank is fully seated and tightened. Mark the drilling position and, if needed, use a center punch or pilot mark to help the centering point start accurately. Start drilling at low speed to establish the hole, then increase speed and apply consistent, moderate pressure. Withdraw the bit occasionally to clear chips and prevent overheating. After reaching the required depth, stop the drill and pull the bit out while it is rotating slowly to reduce tear-out.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as eye protection and hearing protection. For cleaner hole edges, support the workpiece on a sacrificial backing board. Avoid excessive force or high speed when drilling hard knots or engineered wood to prevent bit damage. Regularly inspect the cutting edges and replace the bit if worn to maintain drilling quality.
