Product Description
Milwaukee 11/16 in. x 6 in. Ship Auger Bit
Model Number: 48-13-0683
The Milwaukee 48-13-0683 is an 11/16 in. x 6 in. Ship Auger Bit for drilling clean, fast holes through framing lumber, dimensional wood, and nail-embedded wood for electrical, plumbing, and mechanical rough-in work where the 11/16 in. bore provides the correct clearance for specific conduit fittings, wire bundles, and specialty rough-in applications requiring precisely this bore size between the adjacent 5/8 in. and 3/4 in. standard sizes. The 11/16 in. is a specialty diameter that serves the specific applications where neither the 5/8 in. nor 3/4 in. adjacent size provides the correct fit for the conduit connector, fitting body, or structural bolt requiring this exact bore. Milwaukee's through-center cutting design provides improved durability in nail-embedded retrofit and remodel drilling conditions — the geometry distributes impact loading more symmetrically when the bit contacts embedded nails, preventing the tip fracture that conventional designs experience in these conditions.
The self-feed screw tip automatically advances the bit through wood under its own rotational force for efficient, low-fatigue drilling throughout production rough-in work, and non-stick coated flutes maintain fast chip ejection from the bore depth to prevent the progressive chip packing that slows standard auger designs during sustained drilling sessions. The 6 in. working length handles standard single-member framing dimensions in typical stud, joist, and rafter sizes in residential and commercial wood-frame construction while fitting the confined clearances inside wall and floor cavities during active rough-in work. Available in 18 in. length for deep multi-member applications where the standard length cannot reach through multiple stacked members from a single drill position.
Milwaukee's ship auger range covers 3/8 in. through 1-1/2 in. in both 6 in. and 18 in. configurations for complete rough-in coverage at every standard wire and conduit diameter.
