Built from high-speed steel with an oxide coating, it measures 0.875 inches in diameter and delivers a full 18 inches of overall length with a 15-inch twist and flute length. The hex shank seats firmly in standard hex-drive chucks and right-angle drills commonly used by electricians, plumbers, and HVAC technicians during rough-in work. The standard point tip pulls the bit through material with minimal feed pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for residential and light commercial rough-in applications where long-reach boring is required through wall plates, floor joists, and structural members. Electricians running conduit or cable, plumbers routing pipe penetrations, and HVAC installers routing refrigerant lines or ductwork all rely on long ship auger bits for access in tight framing cavities. The 18-inch overall length provides the reach needed when working inside wall assemblies or between floor systems without requiring an extension.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.875-inch hole diameter sized for common rough-in penetrations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18-inch overall length with 15-inch flute for deep boring applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction with oxide coating for durability and reduced friction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHex shank for secure chuck engagement and minimal slippage under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard point tip for positive self-feeding action in wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart of the SPEEDBOR SUPREME series for consistent performance across the line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard ship auger bit compatible with hex-chuck drills and right-angle drill drivers accepting a 3-inch hex shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed electricians, plumbers, and HVAC technicians during rough-in phases. Ensure the drill chuck is fully tightened on the hex shank before starting the bore. Always confirm there are no hidden utilities, wires, or pipes in the boring path before drilling through structural members. Follow all applicable codes, including NEC and IPC requirements, for minimum clearance between penetrations and structural edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuger Bit Size (Hole Diameter)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwist Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuger Bit Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ship Auger Bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: SPEEDBOR SUPREME\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18.6 inches L x 1.2 inches W x 1.2 inches H\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.39 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: IRWIN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: IWAX3009\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IRWIN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541813100850,"sku":"IWAX3009","price":79.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0c7bf8f1440bb77626e22f0df26597cf.jpg?v=1785885647","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/irwin-iwax3009-ship-auger-bit-0-875-in-hex-shank-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
