Exceptionally Fast and Clean -- New Spyder Wood-Boring Bits Excel in Finish Carpentry and Rough Construction

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Nov. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Spyder today announced the newest additions to its STINGER™ line of professional-grade wood-boring tools. The new STINGER™ Power Bits complement the company's popular spade and auger bits with several unique features. They make exceptionally fast, clean cuts with less battery-draining torque.

STINGER™ Power Bits are designed for drilling both soft and hard wood, as well as plywood, laminated wood and particle board. They speed through cuts, making clean holes up to 40 times faster than conventional center-point spade bits. As a precision, clean-cutting tool, they excel in finish carpentry as well as rough construction applications. Burr-free entry holes and exit holes with no blowout look great on woodworking projects, and they make pulling wire and inserting plumbing tube/pipe through studs a cinch.

The new bits are optimized for use on both high- and low-torque drill motors and impacting tools. They require up to 50 percent less torque than standard threaded auger and spade bits, slowing battery drain on cordless tools. The reduction in power to drill means STINGER™ Power Bits can make up to 25 times as many holes on a single battery charge.

"The Spyder STINGER™ Power Bits are an entirely new type of bit for wood drilling. They make clean holes like Forstner bits and bore deep and straight like auger bits, while providing an exceptional value like spade bits," said Ryan Campbell, Executive Vice President of Spyder. "Our wood-boring tools are highly regarded among woodworkers and construction professionals, and the STINGER™ Power Bit provides yet another option to meet the demands of their materials and budget."
