Freud DAG3090 Auger Bit 7/8 X 17-1/2 Inches 2-pack

Product Description

The FREUD DAG3090 is a 7/8-inch by 17-1/2-inch auger bit engineered for drilling through nail-embedded wood in demanding jobsite conditions. The self-feeding dura-tip pulls the bit into the material without requiring excessive downward pressure, while a dual cutting edge produces a clean, consistent bore through lumber containing embedded fasteners. Deep spiral flutes clear chips aggressively, reducing heat buildup and extending the number of holes achievable per battery charge. This bit ships as a 2-pack and is suited for electricians, plumbers, HVAC installers, and general contractors who need reliable through-drilling performance in framing, blocking, or rough-in work.

This auger bit is designed for use in residential and commercial rough-in applications where drilling through dimensional lumber, engineered wood, or nail-embedded framing members is required. The 17-1/2-inch length provides the reach needed for drilling through deep framing assemblies or wall cavities without extension accessories. Compatible with both cordless and corded impact drivers and standard drill drivers, the DAG3090 is well suited for electrical, plumbing, and HVAC rough-in crews who need a bit that handles incidental nail strikes without immediate failure.

Installation Notes

Installation of this bit is performed by electricians, plumbers, and HVAC technicians during rough-in framing work. Ensure the chuck is fully tightened and the driver is set to an appropriate torque or impact mode before use. Inspect the dura-tip and cutting edges before each use and retire the bit if the tip or edges show significant deformation from nail contact. Follow all applicable NEC, IPC, or IFGC clearance requirements for the type of penetration being drilled.
