Product Description
Milwaukee 3/4 in. x 6 in. Ship Auger Bit
Model Number: 48-13-0753
The Milwaukee 48-13-0753 is a 3/4 in. x 6 in. Ship Auger Bit for drilling clean, fast holes through framing lumber, dimensional wood, engineered wood products, and nail-embedded wood in electrical, plumbing, and mechanical rough-in applications in wood-frame construction. The 3/4 in. diameter is one of the most frequently used rough-in boring sizes — accommodating larger NM cable bundles, 1/2 in. flexible conduit, standard plumbing rough-in holes, and framing bolt penetrations where the larger hole size provides necessary clearance for the material being routed. Milwaukee's through-center cutting design delivers improved bit life in the nail-embedded wood conditions that are unavoidable in retrofit and remodel drilling — the geometry distributes the impact load more symmetrically when the bit contacts embedded nails and staples, preventing the asymmetric fracture that ends the life of conventional auger bits in existing framing.
The self-feed screw tip automatically advances the bit into the workpiece under rotational force, eliminating the heavy sustained manual downward drill pressure that causes arm and shoulder fatigue during high-volume rough-in drilling. Non-stick coated flutes provide continuous chip ejection throughout the drilling depth, preventing the progressive packing and binding that slows standard auger bits and risks bit breakage under stalled-bit torsional stress. The 6 in. working length handles standard single-member framing penetrations in typical stud, joist, and rafter dimensions while fitting the confined clearances between framing members encountered during rough-in work from below joists and inside wall cavities.
Available in 18 in. length for drilling through double top plates, built-up beams, and multiple stacked framing members — see the full Milwaukee ship auger bit lineup for all available diameters from 3/8 in. through 1-1/2 in. in both 6 in. and 18 in. lengths.
