An auger drill bit is used to bore holes in timber. It is great for drilling holes in thatch poles to insert threaded rods.
The design is very similar to a forstner drill bit, as it "shaves" itself through the wood. A low rpm rotary drill with a planetary gearbox is required to be used with auger drill bits.
For boring in all types of wood
Sharp screw tip for precision drilling
Drills clean, accurate holes.
Screw tip guides/draws bit through material easily
Wide flute allows for effective chip removal allowing deep drilling
CAUTION:Take care when drilling with auger drill bits. The auger drill bit tends to jerk the rotary drill when drilling. Keep the rotary drill steady with both hands to prevent wrist injury.
