Milwaukee 48-13-5500 3/8" x 18" Ship Auger Bit

The Milwaukee 3/8" x 18" Ship Auger Bit drills through up to 2X the nails of competitive auger bits without needing to be resharpened. Drill confidently into clean or nail-embedded wood when installing Romex wire, Pex water lines, rebar, bolts, and rope in piers, playground equipment and landscaping. Wider flutes give maximum chip removal, even in deep holes. Thanks to the polished and coated flute finish, chips won't stick to the bit, even when drilling material that contains sap or glue. The through-center cutting design gives a more solid striking point against nails than the competitions' ahead-of-center and behind-center designs. A longer shaft makes it easy to drill deeper or overhead without an extension.
