Product Description
The Diablo 1-3/8 in. x 17-1/2 in. Auger Bit for Wood and Nail-Embedded Wood is a professional-grade boring bit engineered to tackle demanding wood drilling tasks - from clean framing lumber to nail-embedded material that would defeat lesser bits. Diablo built this auger bit around a two-step cutting action and a self-feeding Dura-Tip, delivering precise, clean holes whether you are running cordless drill drivers on a framing job or pushing through stacked, fastener-laden wood in plumbing and gardening applications. With a 13-1/2 in. working length and a total reach of 17-1/2 in., this bit handles deep-bore situations where shorter bits fall short.
Key Features
- Two-step cutting action - produces precise, clean holes in wood drilling applications, reducing tear-out and rework on finished framing and structural work
- Self-feeding Dura-Tip - pulls the bit through the workpiece automatically, delivering extreme durability in nail-embedded wood so the bit keeps cutting even when it encounters hidden fasteners
- Dual cutting edge design - provides an effortless, smooth hole-boring experience in nail-embedded wood, reducing operator fatigue during extended drilling sessions
- Deep flutes for fast chip removal - enhances chip evacuation so debris clears the hole quickly, translating to more holes per battery charge and less time clearing clogs
- 7/16 in. hex quick change shank - increases stability and durability in both cordless and corded impact wrenches and drill drivers, making bit changes fast without additional tools
Why This Product
- Designed specifically for nail-embedded wood - the Dura-Tip and dual cutting edge work together so you can bore through lumber with hidden nails without stopping to switch bits or risk a broken tip
- The 17-1/2 in. total length and 13-1/2 in. working length give you the reach needed for deep-bore plumbing and framing passes through wall cavities and stacked lumber where shorter bits cannot complete the cut
- Deep flutes actively clear chips as you drill, meaning fewer interruptions to back the bit out and clean the hole - especially valuable when drilling multiple holes on battery power
- The 7/16 in. hex quick change shank fits standard impact wrenches and drill drivers, so this bit works with the tools already on your jobsite without requiring adapters or special chucks

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this auger bit be used with a cordless drill driver?
Yes. The 7/16 in. hex quick change shank is compatible with both cordless and corded drill drivers and impact wrenches, making it a versatile choice for jobsite use where battery-powered tools are common.
Is this bit suitable for drilling through wood that contains embedded nails?
Yes. The Diablo DAG3150 is specifically engineered for nail-embedded wood. The Dura-Tip provides extreme durability when the bit contacts nails, and the dual cutting edge continues delivering smooth, effortless boring even in fastener-laden material.
What wood materials can this auger bit cut through?
This bit is rated for hardwoods, softwoods, nail-embedded wood, and plywood - covering the full range of materials encountered in wood framing, plumbing rough-in, gardening, and stacked furniture work.
How does the deep flute design benefit cordless drilling?
The deep flutes accelerate chip evacuation, clearing debris out of the hole as you drill. This reduces heat buildup and friction, which means more holes completed per battery charge - an important advantage when running a cordless drill driver through multiple passes in a framing or plumbing application.
