Product Description
The Diablo 3/8 in. x 7-1/2 in. Auger Bit for Wood and Nail-Embedded Wood delivers maximum performance and extreme durability for professionals and tradespeople working in demanding wood drilling applications. Engineered by Diablo for use with cordless and corded drill drivers, this auger bit is purpose-built to bore clean, precise holes through hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and nail-embedded wood - making it a go-to choice for wood framing, rough plumbing, gardening, and furniture work where embedded fasteners are unavoidable.
Key Features
- Two-step cutting action for precise, clean holes in wood drilling applications - reduces tear-out and delivers smooth, accurate results even in demanding materials
- Self-feeding Dura-Tip pulls the bit through the material automatically - reduces operator effort and keeps drilling fast and consistent in nail-embedded wood
- Dual cutting edge design for effortless, smooth hole drilling in nail-embedded wood - the twin edges share the cutting load so the bit stays sharp and controlled even when it contacts embedded nails
- Deep flutes for fast chip removal - efficiently evacuates wood chips from the hole to help maintain drilling speed and extend battery life per charge
- 1/4 in. hex quick change shank increases stability and durability in cordless and corded impact wrenches and drill drivers - snaps securely into standard quick-change chucks without tools for faster bit swaps on the job
Why This Product
- Built specifically for nail-embedded wood - the Dura-Tip and dual cutting edges work together to keep boring smooth when ordinary bits would deflect or wear out prematurely on hidden fasteners
- The 1/4 in. hex quick-change shank makes this bit compatible with the cordless drill drivers and impact drivers already on your job site, eliminating the need for extra chuck adapters
- Deep flutes actively clear chips during drilling, which means more holes per battery charge - a practical advantage for high-volume framing, plumbing rough-ins, and stacked furniture assembly
- At 7-1/2 in. total length with a 5-1/2 in. working length and a 3/8 in. diameter, this bit is sized for common through-hole tasks in wood framing and plumbing applications where reaching through thick stock matters

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this auger bit be used with an impact driver or only a standard drill?
This bit features a 1/4 in. hex quick-change shank, which is compatible with both cordless and corded impact wrenches and drill drivers. The quick-change design increases stability and durability in either tool type, so you can use whichever you have on hand without needing an adapter.
What makes this bit suitable for nail-embedded wood?
The self-feeding Dura-Tip is engineered for extreme durability when contacting nails embedded in wood, and the dual cutting edge design distributes the cutting load evenly so drilling stays smooth and controlled even when the bit encounters hidden fasteners.
What wood materials can this 3/8 in. auger bit handle?
This Diablo auger bit is rated for use in hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and nail-embedded wood - covering the range of materials commonly found in wood framing, rough plumbing, gardening, and furniture assembly applications.
How does the deep flute design improve performance?
The deep flutes on this bit are designed to enhance chip evacuation, pulling wood chips out of the hole quickly as you drill. This reduces clogging and heat buildup, which translates to more holes drilled per battery charge when using a cordless drill driver.
