Product Description
Milwaukee 3/4 in. x 18 in. Ship Auger Bit
Model Number: 48-13-5750
The Milwaukee 48-13-5750 is a 3/4 in. x 18 in. Ship Auger Bit for drilling deep, clean holes through framing lumber, dimensional wood, and nail-embedded wood in electrical, plumbing, and mechanical rough-in applications where the 3/4 in. bore and 18 in. extended working length are both required for the specific penetration through multiple stacked framing members or deep structural assemblies. The 3/4 in. diameter is one of the most heavily used rough-in sizes — covering 1/2 in. EMT and IMC conduit, 1/2 in. flexible conduit, and medium-diameter plumbing rough-in penetrations throughout residential and commercial construction. The self-feed screw tip automatically advances the bit through wood under its own rotational force, and Milwaukee's through-center cutting design provides improved durability in nail-embedded retrofit and remodel drilling conditions where embedded nails and fasteners are regularly encountered.
The 18 in. working length provides the deep reach required for drilling through multiple stacked framing members, double top plates, built-up beams, and thick timber sections in commercial wood-frame construction where the standard 6-1/2 in. configuration cannot penetrate from a single drill setup. Non-stick coated flutes maintain fast chip ejection from the full 18 in. bore depth at the 3/4 in. diameter where chip volume per revolution requires effective flute action to prevent progressive slowing from chip packing. Having both the correct diameter and the extended length in a single bit eliminates the need for separate shorter bits plus extensions for multi-member drilling at this common rough-in size, streamlining the tool inventory for electricians and plumbers who drill 3/4 in. holes through deep commercial structural assemblies as a regular part of their scope.
Available in 6-1/2 in. standard length for single-member drilling — Milwaukee ship auger bits cover 3/8 in. through 1-1/2 in. in both configurations.
