Century 38528 Ship Auger Bit
The Century 38528 is a 7-1/2 inch power ship auger bit built for boring deep, clean holes in treated wood and poles. It suits professional tradespeople and serious DIY users who need reliable performance in heavy timber. The solid centre twist reduces vibration during extended drilling sessions. This accessory fits standard power drills and traditional hand braces for versatile use.
Single spur cutter design
A single spur and single cutter configuration cuts cleanly through dense, treated lumber without wandering. The solid centre twist minimises vibration so the bit tracks straight and reduces operator fatigue. This geometry also clears chips efficiently from deep bores. No additional accessories or software are included with the bit itself.
Fits standard drill chucks
The bit installs directly into a standard power drill chuck or hand brace with no adapters required. Ensure the shank seats fully and the chuck is tightened securely to prevent slippage under load. Common issues include dulling when hitting hidden nails or excessive heat if feed pressure is too high. Regular sharpening maintains cutting speed and hole quality.

Questions about this item
How often will the single spur and cutter need sharpening when boring treated wood?
The single spur and cutter can be resharpened with a file as the edge dulls; frequency depends on the abrasiveness of the treated poles you drill.
What stops the bit from going deeper during a long day of pole boring?
The 7-1/2 inch overall length is the hard limit; once the solid center twist reaches the chuck, the hole cannot go deeper.
Does the solid center twist keep vibration low enough for all-day use in a power drill?
The solid center twist is designed to reduce vibration, so the bit runs smoother in a power drill during extended sessions.
