Cable Installer Bit 9/16in 24in

The Eagle Tool Us EA56224 is an auger-style cable drill bit designed for pulling wire through wood framing. Its 24 in overall length and 22 in maximum drilling depth suit electricians and low-voltage installers running cable in new construction or remodel work.

Powder-coated carbon steel reduces friction

The powder-coated carbon steel body resists corrosion and reduces binding during long pulls. A 1/4 in hex shank with three flats locks securely in drill chucks and quick-change adapters, preventing spin-out under high torque from pneumatic or cordless drills.

9/16 in diameter limits hole size

The fixed 9/16 in cutting diameter suits single or bundled NM cable but cannot accommodate larger conduit or multi-cable bundles. The straight shank offers no SDS or spline engagement, so rotary-hammer users must rely on a three-jaw chuck adapter for compatibility.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 1/4 in hex shank into my drill, and what step is often missed?

Insert the 1/4 in hex shank fully into the chuck and tighten securely on the three flats; the step often missed is not seating the shank completely so the flats engage the chuck jaws.

What maintenance will the powder coated carbon steel bit need over time?

Wipe the powder coated carbon steel clean after each use, apply light oil to prevent rust, and resharpen the screw point and auger flutes when cutting slows in wood.

What limit appears first when drilling continuously with the 22 in maximum depth?

Chip packing in the auger flutes appears first during sustained deep drilling, requiring frequent withdrawal to clear debris before reaching the 22 in maximum drilling depth.
