Description:

The Irwin R17A716 Auger Bit is built for clean, fast wood boring in both standard and heavy-duty applications. Featuring a 7/16" diameter with a 12" flute length, this bit is ideal for drilling deep holes in framing lumber, studs, joists, and nail-embedded wood.

Its single cutter and side lip design ensures smooth, efficient cutting while maintaining durability when encountering nails. The full-length heat-treated shaft helps guard against bending in high-torque applications, strengthening the bit where strain is greatest.

A hollow center flute quickly removes chips for faster drilling and reduced clogging, while wide lands keep the bit tracking straight for accurate holes. The 5/16" hex shank provides a secure grip in drills and impact drivers, reducing slippage under load.
