Product Description
The Diablo 7/16 in. x 13 in. Auger Bit for Wood and Nail-Embedded Wood delivers maximum performance and extreme durability for professionals tackling wood framing, plumbing rough-in, gardening installations, and stacked furniture construction. Engineered by Diablo for use with cordless and corded drill/drivers, this auger bit combines a self-feeding tip, dual cutting edges, and deep chip-clearing flutes to bore clean, precise holes through hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and even nail-embedded lumber - where ordinary bits fail. The 1/4 in. hex quick-change shank makes tool changes fast and keeps the bit locked securely in impact-rated drill/drivers for a reliable, vibration-free drilling experience.
Key Features
- Two-step cutting action - scores and removes material in a single pass for precise, clean holes in wood drilling applications, reducing tearout and splintering
- Self-feeding Dura-Tip - pulls the bit forward automatically so the user does not need to apply heavy downward pressure, making drilling through nail-embedded wood effortless
- Dual cutting edge design - delivers a smooth, consistent bore through nail-embedded wood and clean lumber alike, extending bit life on tough jobsite materials
- Deep flutes - accelerate chip evacuation so debris clears quickly, allowing more holes per battery charge on cordless tools
- 1/4 in. hex quick-change shank - increases stability and durability in both cordless and corded impact wrenches and drill/drivers, and eliminates the need for a chuck key
- 13 in. overall length with 9 in. working length - reaches deep into wall cavities, floor joists, and stacked framing members for wood framing and plumbing rough-in tasks
Why This Product
- Built to cut through nail-embedded wood without bit failure - the Dura-Tip and dual cutting edge design are specifically engineered for the demanding conditions of remodel and demolition framing where hidden nails are common.
- The 13 in. length and 9 in. working length give tradespeople the reach needed for deep-wall plumbing, wood framing, and stacked furniture construction without needing an extension.
- Deep flutes remove chips faster than standard auger profiles, helping cordless drill users get more holes per charge - a direct productivity benefit on battery-powered jobsites.
- The 1/4 in. hex quick-change shank is compatible with standard drill/drivers and impact-rated tools, making this bit a versatile addition for hardwood, softwood, plywood, and nail-embedded wood boring tasks.
