Product Description
The Diablo 7/8 in. x 13 in. Auger Bit for Wood and Nail-Embedded Wood is engineered for professional-grade drilling in hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and nail-embedded lumber. Designed by Diablo for demanding wood framing, plumbing rough-in, stacked furniture, and gardening applications, this auger bit combines a self-feeding tip, dual cutting edges, and deep chip-clearing flutes to deliver fast, clean holes - even through wood containing embedded nails. The 7/16 in. hex quick-change shank makes it fully compatible with cordless and corded drill/drivers, offering the stability and speed that trade professionals expect on the job site.
Key Features
- Two-step cutting action for precise, clean holes in wood drilling applications - produces accurate, splinter-reduced results in hardwoods, softwoods, and plywood without wandering or tear-out
- Self-feeding Dura-Tip pulls the bit through the material automatically - reduces operator push force and keeps drilling effortless even in dense or nail-embedded lumber
- Dual cutting edge design for effortless, smooth hole drilling in nail-embedded wood - allows the bit to power through nails without stalling or damaging the cutting geometry
- Deep flutes for fast chip removal - clears waste material quickly to extend battery life per charge and maintain consistent drilling speed throughout deep cuts
- 7/16 in. hex quick-change shank increases stability and durability in cordless and corded impact wrenches and drill drivers - snaps securely into standard hex chucks for fast bit swaps on the job site
Why This Product
- Purpose-built for nail-embedded wood - the Dura-Tip and dual cutting edge work together so you can bore through framing lumber with hidden nails without stopping to switch bits or reposition
- At 13 in. overall length with a 9 in. working length, this bit reaches deep into wall cavities, floor joists, and stacked material where shorter bits cannot access - ideal for plumbing and electrical rough-in work
- Deep flutes actively evacuate chips during the cut, which translates to more holes per battery charge on cordless tools - a measurable productivity advantage in high-volume framing tasks
- The 7/16 in. hex quick-change shank is compatible with standard drill/driver chucks, making this bit a versatile addition to any wood framing, gardening, or plumbing toolkit without requiring special adapters

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this auger bit drill through wood that contains embedded nails?
Yes. The Diablo DAG2090 is specifically designed for nail-embedded wood. The self-feeding Dura-Tip and dual cutting edge work together to bore through lumber containing nails smoothly and without damaging the bit's cutting geometry, making it well-suited for demolition framing, reclaimed lumber, and rough framing where hidden fasteners are common.
What shank type does the DAG2090 use, and which tools is it compatible with?
The DAG2090 uses a 7/16 in. hex quick-change shank, which is compatible with cordless and corded drill/drivers. The hex shank snaps into standard hex chucks and increases stability and durability compared to round-shank designs, making it a practical choice for both impact-capable drill drivers and standard drill/drivers.
What is the working length versus the total length of this bit?
The DAG2090 has a total length of 13 in. and a working length of 9 in. The extended total length allows the bit to reach deep into wall cavities, floor joists, and stacked materials, while the 9 in. working length ensures effective cutting depth for demanding wood framing and plumbing rough-in applications.
How do the deep flutes on this bit benefit cordless tool users?
The deep flutes are designed to enhance chip evacuation throughout the drilling process. By clearing waste material more efficiently during each pass, the bit reduces friction and heat buildup, which translates to more holes per battery charge - a meaningful advantage for professionals using cordless drill/drivers on extended wood framing or plumbing jobs.
