Features

  • Size and Build: This Auger Drill bit has a diameter of 1/2" and a length of 8", featuring a 3/8" Hex shank. It's crafted to drill holes up to 6-inches deep.
  • Material and Design: Constructed from sturdy Carbon Steel, this drill bit incorporates a solid center design for enhanced rigidity during boring. Its cutting flute is precision-milled with hollow centers to expedite chip clearance.
  • DIY Applications: Perfect for a myriad of DIY projects, this drill bit excels at drilling into soft and hardwood, MDF, plywood, lumber, railroad ties, landscape timber, and more. It's particularly suitable for tasks like installing invisible floating shelf brackets, boring tree stumps, running cables or wires, plumbing through studs, drilling vigas for pergola construction. It is a stump killer auger bit.
  • Advantages of SOMADA Auger Bits: Opting for an auger bit ensures the ability to bore deep and seamless holes in wood, plastic, and various other materials. The screw tip facilitates a safer and smoother initiation compared to spade or paddle bits.
  • Enhanced Performance Features: Equipped with a self-feeding coarse screw point, this drill bit is engineered for swift drilling. Its single-spur cutting edge meticulously scribes the hole's circumference, resulting in a polished finish.
  • Reusable Packaging Solution: Each drill bit comes packaged in a reusable PVC tube, ensuring effortless storage, longevity, and safe handling. Whether hung on a pegboard in your garage or stored in your toolbox, this packaging solution keeps your drill bit organized and protected.
  • Safety Guidelines: Prioritize safety by commencing drilling operations at the lowest RPM setting for optimal performance and injury prevention. For superior results, utilize a corded power drill. Additionally, remember to inspect the drill bit before each use to ensure it's in prime condition.

  • Good quality bit
Size: 1"x17"
I used this for drilling stumps so I could burn them. It works well. You just need to use a good strong drill motor.

  • 1” deep bore
Size: 1"x10"
Needed this to bore through 5 2x8s. Worked great with a hand drill. Don’t try it on the drill press it will pull your chuck out!

  • Fantastic bit (and brilliant case!)
Size: 1/2"x12"
Don't understand why this doesn't have 100% five star rating. It's that good. Powers a 1/2 inch hole through nine inch wood, again and again and again. Still sharp! I was thinking maybe I should have gotten a Forstner bit. No way. This thing is fast. Really, really impressed. And inexpensive as well! ... show more

  • Great product at a great price
Size: 3/8"x10"
Used the bit today to make 50 holes in 6x6 landscape timbers. From the first to last hole it took no more than 5 seconds. The timbers were extremely wet but the bit cut through like butter. Excellent product,extremely satisfied

  • Not properly hardened
Size: 1"x 6"
The leading edge rolled over on first use.. drilling in pretty soft wood. Its still useable but I dont expect it to last very long. Would not recommend. Update: the seller contacted me after posting the review and offered a full refund. Maybe I just had a bad one.
