Usage
This Bosch auger bit is designed for precise drilling of clean holes in hardwood, softwood, and even damp wood. Suitable for use with rotary drills equipped with a 13 mm chuck in carpentry, roofing, and general woodworking tasks.
Advantages
- Precision-ground threaded tip ensures accurate self-centering starts and clean entry into wood materials.
- Large rectified helical flute enables continuous chip removal, reducing the risk of clogging—even in wet wood.
- Hexagonal shank provides a secure grip in the drill chuck for reduced slippage during operation.
- Suits both professionals and DIY users thanks to compatibility with standard rotary drills (13 mm chuck).
- The robust metal construction offers resistance to wear over prolonged use; care should be taken when using on materials other than wood.[1][2]
Specifications
- Design: Precision-ground auger bit made from durable metal; features a threaded centering tip and rectified helical flute for efficient chip evacuation.[1][2]
- Toughness: Built for extended service life during repetitive drilling tasks; optimized geometry reduces tool strain.[1]
- Main Dimensions: Diameter: 14 mm; Working length: approximately 170 mm; Total length: approximately 235 mm.[2]
- Differentiating features: Hexagonal shank (11.1 mm across flats) minimizes slipping in drill chucks while increasing torque resistance.[1][2]
How it works
The Bosch helicoidal auger bit is mounted on a compatible power drill. Its self-feeding threaded tip pulls the bit into the wood while spiral flutes efficiently expel chips out of the hole, ensuring smooth drilling through various types of timber without frequent interruptions.[1]
