Rawlplug Flat Wood Drill Bit for Fast, Large-Diameter Holes in Timber and Boards

Built for fast, large-diameter boring:

The Rawlplug RT-FLWD-160-152 is a 16mm flat spade wood drill bit designed for cutting large-diameter holes quickly through wood and wood-based sheet materials. Its spade geometry, combined with rounded cutting surfaces, allows the bit to remove material rapidly without binding, making it a practical choice for carpenters, electricians, plumbers, and serious DIY users.

Hardened alloy steel construction:

The bit is manufactured from high-quality hardened alloy steel, which gives it the durability to handle repeated use through timber, chipboard, oriented strand board, and similar substrates. The reinforced shank provides high torsional strength, reducing the risk of twisting or failure under load during demanding drilling tasks.

Compatible with drills and impact drivers:

The 1/4" (6.35mm) hex grip shank fits standard drill chucks and is also compatible with most impact drivers available on the market, giving you flexibility across your existing tool collection. A centring point at the tip prevents the bit from walking across the surface at the start of a hole, helping you position each bore accurately.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this flat wood drill bit be used with an impact driver as well as a standard drill?

Yes. The bit has a reinforced 1/4" (6.35 mm) hex grip shank, which fits standard drill chucks and is also compatible with most impact drivers. That flexibility means it works across the tools most tradespeople and serious DIYers already own. The FLWD-160-152 delivers the same 16 mm bore diameter regardless of which tool drives it.

What stops this spade bit slipping or wandering when starting a hole?

A centring point at the tip engages the timber first and holds the bit on position before the cutting edges bite. This prevents the bit from walking across the surface at the start of a bore, which is especially useful when drilling freehand into chipboard or OSB where the face can be slippery. The reinforced shank adds torsional strength to maintain control under load.

What wood-based materials can this 16 mm spade bit cut through?

It is designed for wood, chipboard, oriented strand board (OSB), and timber. The flat spade geometry with rounded cutting surfaces removes material quickly without binding, making it a practical choice for tradespeople boring cable or pipe runs through structural timbers, floor joists, or sheet materials on site.

What is included in the box with this spade bit?

The pack contains one 16 mm x 152 mm flat spade wood drill bit, supplied in a plastic storage box. No additional bits or accessories are included. The 152 mm overall length is suited to standard timber sections and typical joinery thicknesses encountered on site.
