Milwaukee 48-13-5930 Ship Auger Bit 15/16 X 18 Inch

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE ELECTRIC TOOL CORP 48-13-5930 is a ship auger bit sized at 15/16 inches in diameter and 18 inches in length. Ship auger bits are designed for boring deep, clean holes through wood framing, timber, and structural lumber. This bit is built for use with heavy-duty corded or cordless drills and right-angle drill drivers commonly used in rough carpentry, electrical rough-in, plumbing rough-in, and construction trades. The extended length allows access through thick framing members where standard-length bits fall short.

This ship auger bit is suited for residential and commercial construction applications where long-reach boring is required. Typical uses include drilling through wall plates, joists, beams, and engineered lumber to route conduit, pipe, or wire. Electricians, plumbers, and general contractors routinely use ship auger bits during rough-in phases of new construction and renovation work. The 15/16-inch diameter accommodates common conduit and pipe routing needs.
