Milwaukee 1/2" x 18" Ship Auger Bit is designed to drill through nails without the need for re-sharpening. Whether you’re installing Romex wire, Pex water lines, rebar, bolts, or rope in piers or playground equipment, this bit gives professionals the confidence to drill into clean or nail-embedded woods. The bit features a polished and coated flute finish that prevents chips from sticking, even when drilling in materials containing sap or glue. Its through-center cutting design provides a more solid striking point against nails d to other ahead-of-center and behind-center designs. The long shaft length is for drilling deeper or overhead without requiring extensions. Model Number: 48-13-5540
