Description
The Milwaukee 48‑13‑8403 Cable Auger Bit (9/16" × 54") is a long‑reach drilling bit engineered for electricians who need to pull wire through studs, joists, and tight framing cavities without opening large sections of wall. Its 9/16‑inch diameter provides an ideal hole size for NM cable runs, while the 54‑inch flexible steel shaft allows the bit to navigate through multiple studs or across concealed spaces. The self‑feeding screw point pulls the bit through wood with minimal effort, and the reinforced flute design helps clear chips efficiently to prevent binding during deep drilling. Built for durability and control, this auger is optimized for overhead work, retrofit wiring, and long‑distance drilling where standard‑length bits cannot reach.
