Itm bellc1424 Carbide Bellhanger Drill Bit 1/4 X 24 in

Product Description

The ITM bellc1424 is a carbide bellhanger drill bit designed for boring through wall cavities, plates, and framing during low-voltage wiring, cable, or conduit installation. Measuring 1/4 inch in diameter and 24 inches in length, this bit provides the reach needed to pass through deep structural members without extension attachments. The cutting tip is carbide-tipped for durability against wood, lath, and similar building materials. It includes a fish hole at the tip, allowing wire or pull string to be threaded directly through the bit after boring, which streamlines the wire-fishing process on the same pass.

Bellhanger bits like the bellc1424 are standard tools for electricians, low-voltage installers, alarm technicians, and AV or data cabling crews working in residential and light commercial construction. The 24-inch length suits common wall depths and staggered plate assemblies where shorter bits cannot reach. The feeler bit design with fish hole is particularly useful during retrofit installs where access is limited and pulling wire through a drilled hole must be done efficiently.

Key Features

• Carbide tip for extended cutting life through wood framing and wall materials
• 1/4 inch diameter suits standard low-voltage and bellhanger boring applications
• 24-inch length provides reach through deep wall assemblies and double plates
• Fish hole at tip allows direct wire attachment and pull-through after boring
• Feeler bit design supports wire-fishing on the same pass as drilling

Compatibility

Designed as a standard bellhanger-style drill bit compatible with 3/8 inch or larger keyed or keyless drill chucks commonly used in residential and light commercial wiring and cable installation work.

Installation Notes

This bit is typically installed and used by electricians, low-voltage technicians, and communications installers working under NEC or local wiring codes. Confirm chuck size compatibility before use and ensure the drill motor provides adequate torque for the material being bored. Always verify stud and cavity locations before drilling to avoid hidden utilities. Wear appropriate eye protection when operating rotary drill tools in overhead or confined spaces.
