Cable installer bit for 36 in reach
The Eagle Tool US EA50036 is a serrated auger-style drill bit designed for pulling cable through wood framing. Its 36 in overall length and 34 in maximum drilling depth suit electricians and low-voltage installers running wire between floors or through stud bays. The 1/2 in bit diameter creates a clean hole for standard cable bundles. A powder-coated finish resists corrosion during extended use.
Suited for long straight pulls, not tight corners
This bit serves installers who need a single long reach through aligned joists or studs. The straight shaft with three-flat shank prevents slip in a drill chuck but cannot navigate bends or obstructed paths. Users requiring flexible bits for angled holes or conduit fishing should consider a different tool style. The fixed 36 in length also limits usefulness in shallow cavities.
1/2 in bit diameter with 3/16 in hex shank
The cutting end measures 1/2 in while the shank is 3/16 in hex with three flats for secure chuck grip. This mismatch means the bit fits a standard 3/8 in or larger drill chuck but bores a larger hole for cable passage. Verify your drill accepts a 3/16 in shank before purchase; no adapter is included.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the bit is drilling to the full 34 in depth after setup?
Measure the drilled hole; it should reach the 34 in maximum drilling depth marked on the 36 in overall length bit.
What comes in the box and do I need a separate drill chuck for the 3/16 in shank?
The box contains the single 1/2 in carbon-steel auger bit with 3/16 in hex shank; a compatible drill chuck or adapter is not included.
Which shank hex size should I choose for my drill — 3/16 in or another option?
This model only offers a 3/16 in hex shank; select it if your drill accepts that size, otherwise a different bit is required.
