        Lerin | SharpEdge Flat Spade Bit 14mm Heavy Duty | High Carbon Steel Hex Shank

        The Lerin LTSB-14 is a 14mm flat spade bit for boring through timber with a corded or cordless drill. It is manufactured from high carbon steel with full-length heat treatment, and finished in black oxide to resist corrosion. The LTSB-14 carries a hex shank, a precision-ground centre point, and a chisel edge ground at a positive angle for fast starts in softwood and hardwood.

        Boring an oversized hole wastes effort and removes timber that the member would rather keep, particularly in studs and joists that carry load. The smaller diameters get reached for constantly on a rough-in, then blunt first because they take the most holes. The LTSB-14 opens a 14mm penetration for compact runs, and its full-length heat treatment resists the bending that punishes narrow bits under side load. The precision-ground centre point holds the mark instead of skating across the grain.

        A 14mm cut removes less timber than the larger diameters, so the drill draws less torque and the operator fights less kickback overhead. The hex shank seats securely in a chuck or hex bit holder rather than rotating in the jaws. Chip-clearing geometry clears waste steadily, which matters most in the narrower flutes where packed shavings would otherwise slow the cut.

        Features

        • 14mm cutting diameter — the smallest bit in the Lerin SharpEdge range, suited to compact timber penetrations that larger diameters would oversize.
        • High carbon steel construction — the LTSB-14 is manufactured from high carbon steel, which takes and holds a fine cutting edge in timber.
        • Full-length heat treatment — treated along the entire bit rather than the tip alone, which matters on narrow shafts subjected to side load.
        • Precision-ground centre point — the point bites where positioned and keeps the bit from skating as the cut commences.
        • Positively angled chisel edge — ground at a positive angle to start quickly in softwood and hardwood, including cuts against the grain.
        • Hex shank — seats in a standard drill chuck or hex bit holder and resists rotating in the jaws under load.
        • Black oxide finish — the coating on the LTSB-14 resists corrosion and reduces friction against the timber during the cut.
        • Chip-clearing geometry — waste evacuates from the hole rather than compacting behind the bit, reducing the load transmitted to the drill.
        • Lower torque demand — a 14mm cut displaces less material than larger diameters, so the drill works less through each penetration.
        • Hang hole — accepts a hook for storage, and takes a draw wire for pulling cable back through a freshly bored hole.
        • Timber cutting only — the LTSB-14 is a wood-boring bit and is not intended for masonry, steel, or tile.

        Where to use

        • Compact cable penetrations — the LTSB-14 bores the smaller holes through studs and noggings where a wider bit removes timber unnecessarily.
        • Data and communications runs — opens penetrations for lighter comms and control cabling routed through timber framing.
        • Ceiling joists and battens — drills through lighter framing members in roof cavities where a large hole would weaken the section.
        • Cabinetry and joinery — takes cable and small fixings through cabinet carcasses and timber joinery at fit-off.
        • Pilot and lead holes — the LTSB-14 opens a starter hole ahead of a larger bit on thick or awkward timber sections.
        • Renovation and maintenance work — handles the smaller everyday timber boring that comes up on service calls and retrofits.

        The LTSB-14 is a timber-boring bit and is not intended for masonry, steel, or tile. High carbon steel holds a fine edge in timber, so striking embedded nails or screws will blunt or chip the cutting edge. Inspect the cavity for existing services and hidden fixings before boring, and treat a damaged edge as a replacement rather than a repair.

        (LTSB-14)

        Choose 14mm when the run is compact and a wider hole would remove more timber than the job needs. Smaller penetrations preserve more of the member and draw less torque from the drill through each hole.

        The LTSB-14 is manufactured from high carbon steel and heat treated along its full length rather than at the tip alone. It is finished in black oxide, which resists corrosion and reduces friction during the cut.

        The bit has a hex shank, which seats in a standard drill chuck or a hex bit holder and resists rotating in the jaws. It runs from either a corded drill or a cordless drill.

        Sparky Direct stocks the Lerin SharpEdge range in 14mm, 18mm (LTSB-18), 20mm (LTSB-20), 22mm (LTSB-22), 25mm (LTSB-25), and 32mm (LTSB-32). A three-piece 20, 22 and 25mm set is available as LTSB-SET202225.

        The precision-ground centre point bites where it is positioned, which holds the bit on the mark as the cut begins. Starting at low speed and letting the point seat before increasing pressure gives the cleanest entry.

        The hang hole takes a hook for storage on a board or in a bag. It also accepts a draw wire, so cable can be pulled back through the penetration immediately after boring it.

        The LTSB-14 is a timber-boring bit and is not intended for masonry, steel, or tile. Striking embedded nails or screws will blunt or chip the edge, so check the cavity for hidden fixings and existing services first.
