Metallics QB7 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size hole does the Metallics QB7 Quik-Bit drill, and how deep can it go?
The QB7 is a 5/8 inch flat wood boring bit with a 6 inch overall length. The 5/8 inch cutting diameter is the common size for pulling a few NM cables or a short run of flex through a stud or joist, and the 6 inch length covers a single 2x stud or a doubled plate without needing an extension.
2) Is the Metallics QB7 a spade bit or an auger bit?
It's a flat bit, also called a spade or paddle bit. Flat bits cut fast in wood framing and are cheap enough to treat as consumable, but they do not self-feed or clear chips like an auger does, so for deep drilling through multiple studs or stacked plates an auger style bit pulls through better. For single-member rough-in holes the flat bit is the usual pick.
3) Will the Metallics QB7 wood bit cut through metal studs or nail plates?
No. The QB7 is a wood bit, intended for wood framing only. Hitting a steel stud, a nail guard plate, or an embedded nail will wreck the cutting edges. For steel framing use a step bit or a hole saw rated for metal.
4) How many bits come in a Metallics QB7 pack?
One bit per pack, supplied in a pouch. If you're drilling a full rough-in and expect to dull or burn a bit partway through, order multiples of the 5/8 inch rather than counting on one to finish the floor.
5) What is the Metallics part number for the 5/8 inch 6 inch Quik-Bit?
Metallics QB7. That is the manufacturer part number for the 5/8 inch by 6 inch flat wood bit, sold one per pouch.
