Irwin 3043014 Power Ship Auger Bit 1-1/8 in Single Twist

Product Description

The IRWIN INDUSTRIAL TOOL CO 3043014 is a single-twist screw point auger bit designed for heavy-duty boring in wood and wood-based materials. Built to the Power Ship Auger standard, this bit features a screw point tip that draws the bit into the material for consistent, self-feeding cuts. The overall length measures 17 inches, with 12 inches of twist, making it well-suited for deep-hole drilling applications where standard-length bits fall short. This bit ships individually tubed and is sold in a package of 16 units per carton, making it practical for job-site restocking.

The 3043014 is used by electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors who need to bore through framing, joists, and structural lumber for wire, conduit, and pipe routing. The 1-1/8-inch diameter is a common size for running larger conduit or pipe through wood framing. The 17-inch length provides reach in tight stud bays and thick structural members where shorter bits cannot complete the bore.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed and used by electricians, plumbers, and HVAC mechanics performing rough-in boring through wood framing. Secure the workpiece before drilling and confirm there are no embedded fasteners, wires, or pipes in the bore path. Use a corded drill with sufficient torque rating for the bit diameter and material thickness. Follow applicable NEC, IPC, or IFGC clearance requirements when routing wire or pipe through structural members.
