Usage
This Bosch auger bit, Ø12 mm and 450 mm long, is designed for precise drilling in hardwoods, softwoods, or damp woods. Ideal for carpenters and roofers needing deep and clean bores in timber structures or joinery applications.
Advantages
- Self-centering threaded tip ensures accurate bit positioning and smooth entry into wood.
- Large ground helical flute allows uninterrupted chip removal—even with wet wood—for efficient drilling performance.
- Hexagonal shank offers a secure grip in the drill chuck, minimizing slippage during operation.
- Tough metal construction delivers reliable durability across demanding jobsite conditions.
- Straightforward compatibility with standard drills featuring a 13 mm chuck—no adapter required.
Specifications
- Design: Auger bit with precision-ground helical flute; self-feeding threaded centering point; hexagonal shank (1/4 inch flat).
- Material: Hardened steel for enhanced lifespan and consistent cutting quality.
- Total length: 450 mm; working length: approximately 360 mm; diameter: Ø12 mm; shank diameter: approx. 6.35 mm (hex).
- Differentiating feature: Efficient chip ejection channel maintains drilling speed even when boring through damp or soft fibers.
How it works
The bit’s self-feeding tip centers itself automatically as you start to drill. The dual-edge cutting geometry forms the hole while large helical flutes continuously expel chips, ensuring deep holes can be drilled efficiently without clogging or overheating the tool.
