Cable Installer Bit for Electricians

The Eagle Tool US EA50024 is a cable installer bit designed for pulling wire through framed walls and ceilings. Its auger-style tip pulls the bit through wood without needing excessive pressure. The 24 in overall length reaches through multiple stud bays in a single pass. This tool suits electricians and low-voltage installers who run cable in new construction or remodel work.

Check Chuck Capacity and Reach Before Buying

Verify that your drill chuck accepts a 3/16 in hex shank with three flats for a secure grip. The maximum drilling depth is 22 in, so ensure that length covers the thickest assembly you will encounter. The straight shank design requires a standard keyed or keyless chuck, not a quick-change impact driver collet. Confirm the 1/2 in cutting diameter matches the hole size your cable bundles require.

Powder-Coated Carbon Steel With Hex Shank

The bit is made from carbon steel with a powder-coated finish that resists corrosion during storage and on damp job sites. The 3/16 in hex shank with three flats prevents slipping in the chuck under high torque. The auger flute clears chips efficiently, reducing binding when drilling deep. The straight shaft allows easy withdrawal after the cable is attached to the pulling eye.

Questions about this item

What comes with the EA50024 cable installer bit and do I need any extra parts?

The bit ships as a single 24 in auger-style drill bit with a 3/16 in hex shank; no extra components are required for use.

Should I choose the 24 in length or a shorter version for my job?

This model is offered only in the 24 in overall length with a 22 in maximum drilling depth; select it when you need that reach.

How deep can the 1/2 in bit actually drill in a real installation?

The bit achieves a maximum drilling depth of 22 in, so it will bore through studs or joists up to that thickness.
