Milwaukee 48-13-6802 Shockwave Lineman Auger Bit 1/2 in

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 48-13-6802 is a Shockwave lineman impact auger bit engineered for power utility linemen who need clean, fast holes in wooden utility poles. The bit features a single spur design that scores the edge of each hole, producing a cleaner finish that lets bolts slide through without resistance. A reinforced anti-friction PTFE coating reduces friction during drilling and simplifies bit removal from the pole. The aggressive feed screw and cutting edge pull the bit through wood while an optimized wide flute geometry ejects chips quickly, reducing clogs and improving overall drilling speed. This bit ships as a single piece.

This auger bit is intended for use in wooden utility poles and is recommended for clean wood only. It is designed for impact drivers or drills equipped with a 7/16 inch quick-connect chuck, making it a standard choice for field linemen working on wood pole installations, service upgrades, and crossarm hardware applications. The solid stemmed core provides added structural strength during high-torque impact driving.
