Customer Reviews for DIABLO 5/8 in. x 17-1/2 in. Carbide Auger Drill Bit for Wood and Nail-Embedded Wood

I used it to drill 20 holes through pre-treated, 4 x 4 wood never had an issue worth all the money.

Weak drill bit, often breaks

Worked perfectly for my application.

Great bit, great price!

Use it on the railroad to drill through ties, it barely makes it a quarter way through before it ceases. Even in the lowest gear setting of our drill it struggles...milwaukee impact auger bits beat this all day every day.

Was drilling 5/8” holes to put 5/8” thread rod into to support some floating shelves made out of butcher block. Predrilled it 6” deep with a 9/16” bit to get it perpendicular, then chased it with this 5/8” auger bit. Got maybe 8” in and jammed, couldnt back it out, couldnt keep it going. Had to use a breaker bar on vice grips, which ended up bending th bit loke a banana.

works amazing smooth like butter

Tip broke on the first job I used it for, drilling into white oak slabs

Worked fantastic and completed the job easily

Boy, that made the job of drilling through the top of a wall easy for my wire installation! Great product that saves you time and sweat!

Good product. Drill through 2x4 and wood framing with ease and saved time.

Worked great in hand held drill. Used for lag bolt predrill.

Great product! Works great!

Smooth, clean holes - only used about 20x to lag bolt 4x4 posts into a 2x12 stringer, but there's virtually zero sign of wear
