Dewalt DW1682 Power Ship Auger Bit 11/16x17 in

Product Description

The DEWALT DW1682 is a power ship auger bit designed for boring clean, accurate holes through wood framing, lumber, and structural members. At 11/16 inches in diameter and 17 inches in length, this bit provides the reach needed to drill through thick structural assemblies in a single pass. It is driven by a standard corded or cordless drill and is sized for applications where longer reach is required, such as running wire or pipe through wall framing or floor joists. Electricians, plumbers, and general contractors commonly use ship auger bits of this type when working in new construction or retrofit installations.

This bit suits residential and light commercial framing applications where a clean through-bore is needed across multiple members or thick stock. The 11/16-inch diameter is a common size for running conduit, cable, or small-diameter pipe through wood framing. The 17-inch length allows the bit to reach through deeper assemblies without requiring an extension, making it a practical choice for rough-in work on walls, floors, and ceilings.

Key Features

• 11/16-inch cutting diameter sized for wire and small-pipe rough-in work
• 17-inch overall length provides extended reach through thick framing assemblies
• Ship auger design produces a clean, full-diameter bore through dimensional lumber
• Sold individually, one bit per unit

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard hex-shank or round-shank drill chucks on corded and cordless drills suited for auger-style bits. Confirm chuck compatibility before use.

Installation Notes

Auger bits of this type are typically used by electricians, plumbers, and carpenters during rough-in framing stages. Secure the workpiece before drilling and ensure the drill speed is appropriate for the wood species and thickness being bored. Keep hands and clothing clear of the rotating bit and shank. Follow applicable NEC or IPC clearance requirements when boring holes for electrical or plumbing runs near framing edges.
