Product Description
The Diablo 13/16 in. x 13 in. Auger Bit for Wood and Nail-Embedded Wood is a professional-grade boring bit engineered by Diablo for demanding wood drilling tasks in framing, plumbing rough-in, stacked furniture construction, and gardening applications. Designed to handle both clean lumber and nail-embedded wood with equal precision, this auger bit combines a self-feeding tip, dual cutting edges, and deep chip-clearing flutes into a single tool built for maximum performance and long-lasting durability in cordless and corded drill driver setups.
Key Features
- Two-step cutting action for precise, clean holes in wood drilling applications - produces accurate, smooth bores through hardwoods, softwoods, and plywood without tear-out, reducing rework on the job site.
- Dura-Tip self-feeding point for extreme durability in nail-embedded wood - pulls the bit forward automatically so you apply less pressure, and it stays sharp even when hitting embedded fasteners that would damage ordinary tips.
- Dual cutting edge design for effortless, smooth hole drilling in nail-embedded wood - two cutting edges distribute the workload, reducing operator fatigue and allowing continuous boring through tough, nail-laden framing lumber.
- Deep flutes for fast chip removal - accelerates debris evacuation out of the hole, preventing clogging and extending the number of holes you can drill on a single battery charge.
- 7/16 in. hex quick-change shank increases stability and durability in cordless and corded impact wrenches and drill drivers - the hex shank locks securely into impact-rated chucks for a wobble-free, high-torque connection that protects the tool and the workpiece.
Why This Product
- Framing and rough-in crews dealing with nail-embedded lumber no longer need a separate bit - the Dura-Tip and dual cutting edge construction are specifically built to bore through wood with nails cleanly, without premature tip failure.
- The 13 in. overall length with a 9 in. working length reaches deep into wall cavities, floor joists, and stacked assemblies where shorter bits fall short, making it practical for plumbing and electrical rough-in work.
- Deep flutes actively clear chips during drilling, which means fewer pullouts to clear the hole and more holes completed per battery charge - a real advantage on large-scale wood framing projects.
- The 7/16 in. hex quick-change shank is compatible with both cordless drill drivers and corded impact wrenches, giving tradespeople flexibility to use whichever tool is on hand without swapping chucks or adapters.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this auger bit drill through wood that has nails or embedded fasteners?
Yes. The Diablo DAG2080 is specifically designed for nail-embedded wood. The Dura-Tip and dual cutting edge construction allow the bit to bore through lumber containing nails or other embedded metal without the tip failure that occurs with standard auger bits.
What shank size does this bit use, and will it fit my drill driver?
This bit uses a 7/16 in. hex quick-change shank, which is compatible with standard hex-chuck cordless drill drivers and corded impact wrenches. The hex geometry locks securely into the chuck for a stable, high-torque connection.
What is the usable working length of this 13 in. auger bit?
The working length - the portion of the bit that actively bores material - is 9 in. The overall length of the bit is 13 in., which includes the shank. This extended reach makes it well suited for deep drilling tasks in wall framing, floor assemblies, and plumbing rough-in work.
What types of wood materials can the DAG2080 handle?
This bit is rated for hardwoods, softwoods, nail-embedded wood, and plywood. It is appropriate for wood framing, stacked furniture, gardening, and plumbing applications where a reliable, clean bore is required across a range of lumber types.
