Wood Owl, located in Miki, Japan, has specialized in the production of drill bits for the woodworking industry since 1923. While the factory is highly mechanized, many of the operations are still performed by hand by skilled workers. This is a 3/4" diameter by 18" long Ultra Smooth Tri-Cut auger bit. This bit s made from fully induction-hardened high-carbon steel for strength and durability. The patented Tri-Cut design consists of three precision ground cutting edges and three flutes engineered to optimize drilling performance. The unique Tri-Cut design has cutting spurs that score the outside of the cut leading to extremely smooth holes with minimal blowout. This bit is 25-35% lighter than standard auger bits of similar size reducing fatigue from extended use. The precision cut lead screw will pull the bit straight and true through material without wandering. This bit comes PTFE Teflon ® coated to minimize friction and allow quick and easy cutting and chip ejection in the stickiest of woods. This bit can be used in cordless drills and hand braces. The bit features a 7/16" quick release hex shank. Bit comes in a plastic storage tube to protect it when not in use.
