Diablo Drill Bits
Diablo Bits for Wood, Metal, and Masonry
Diablo drill bits span wood, metal, and masonry. For wood there are SPEEDemon spade bits in single sizes, 2-packs, and a 16-piece set, auger bits up to 17-1/2 inches long, and 7-piece and 16-piece Forstner bit sets. The Metal Demon 29-piece set drills mild, hardened, and stainless steel. For hard materials, Diablo offers a 5-piece carbide tipped tile and stone set and an SDS-Plus Rebar Demon set with 4-cutter full carbide heads.
What to Look For
- Material. Choose spade, auger, or Forstner bits for wood and Metal Demon bits for steel.
- Hole quality. Forstner bits leave clean, flat-bottomed holes, while spade bits drill fast rough holes.
- Length. Long auger bits reach through thick framing.
- Drive. SDS-Plus bits require an SDS-Plus rotary hammer.

Diablo Drill Bits FAQ
Spade bit or auger bit?
Spade bits drill fast through studs for rough holes. Auger bits pull themselves through the wood and work well for deep holes in framing.
Can Diablo Metal Demon bits drill stainless steel?
The Metal Demon 29-piece set is listed for mild, hardened, and stainless steels. Use proper speed and cutting fluid for best results.
