Milwaukee 48-13-6703 Lineman Impact Auger Bit 9/16 in

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 48-13-6703 is a lineman's impact auger bit engineered specifically for drilling clean, fast holes in wooden utility poles. It features a single spur design that scores the perimeter of the hole before cutting, producing a cleaner finish that allows hardware to seat and slide through without resistance. A reinforced anti-friction PTFE coating reduces friction during drilling and makes bit removal easier after the hole is complete. The aggressive feed screw and cutting edge pull the bit through the wood efficiently, while the optimized wide flute geometry ejects chips quickly to prevent clogging and maintain drilling speed. The solid stemmed core adds structural strength during high-torque impact driving. Installed by power utility linemen using impact-rated drivers with a 7/16 inch hex quick-connect chuck.

This bit is designed for power utility line work where holes must be drilled through wooden utility poles to accept bolts, hardware, and line attachments. The 9/16 inch diameter is a common sizing for utility pole hardware applications. The 7/16 inch hex shank provides fast, secure connection to compatible quick-connect impact chucks used in the field. This bit is recommended for clean wood only and is not designed for use in treated, composite, or metal-reinforced pole sections.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this bit is performed by licensed power utility linemen following applicable utility and worksite safety protocols. Always ensure the impact driver or drill is powered off and properly secured before changing bits. Use the appropriate personal protective equipment required for utility pole work, including eye protection and fall protection where applicable. Do not use this bit on materials other than clean wood, as this may damage the bit or produce unsafe results.
