Milwaukee 48-27-1001 Flat Boring Bit 1 X 6 Inch

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 48-27-1001 is a flat boring bit designed to bore small, clean holes at any angle in wood, plastic, plywood, and Formica. Built from heat-treated high carbon steel, the drill point and cutting edge can be resharpened, extending service life and reducing replacement costs. With a 6-inch drilling depth, this bit suits a wide range of rough-in and finish boring tasks common in residential and light commercial construction. It is well-suited for electricians, plumbers, and carpenters who need a reliable, cost-effective boring tool for framing and rough-in work.

This flat boring bit is used in standard drill and drill-driver applications where clean, precise holes are required through wood framing members, subflooring, cabinetry, plywood panels, and Formica surfaces. The 1-inch cutting diameter makes it appropriate for conduit, pipe, and cable routing tasks encountered during rough-in phases of construction. For deep-hole drilling applications, the bit is compatible with a 12-inch extension (Milwaukee 48-28-3350), allowing access to deeper framing cavities without repositioning.

Key Features

• Heat-treated high carbon steel construction for durability and resharpening capability
• 1-inch cutting diameter for conduit, pipe, and cable pass-through applications
• 6-inch drilling depth suits standard framing and rough-in tasks
• Compatible with Milwaukee 48-28-3350 12-inch extension for deep-hole drilling
• Cuts cleanly at any angle through wood, plastic, plywood, and Formica
• Resharpenable cutting edge reduces long-term tooling costs

Compatibility

Compatible with standard drill chucks. For extended reach applications, pairs with Milwaukee extension 48-28-3350 to achieve deeper drilling depth beyond the standard 6-inch capacity.

Installation Notes

Installation of this bit is performed by electricians, plumbers, and carpenters during rough-in phases. Ensure the drill is powered off and the bit is fully seated in the chuck before operation. Wear appropriate eye protection when boring through composite or laminate materials. When using with an extension, confirm all connections are secure before applying drilling pressure.
