Cable Installer Bit 72 in

The Eagle Tool US EA75072 is a carbon steel auger-style cable installer bit designed for drilling through wood framing during low-voltage cable runs. Its 72 inch overall length allows reach between studs and through top plates without extensions. A quick-change hex shank fits standard drill chucks and impact drivers for fast bit swaps on site. Bright uncoated finish reduces binding in green lumber.

For electricians pulling data or coax

Installers who need a single long bit for residential rough-in work will appreciate the reach and aggressive auger feed. Contractors requiring coated flutes for chip ejection in dense hardwoods or those needing a shorter bit for tight stud bays should look at other options. The plain carbon steel construction also means frequent resharpening in high-volume commercial use.

72 inch overall length

The defining specification is the 72 inch overall length which determines whether the bit can span the full cavity depth in standard wall and ceiling assemblies. Shorter bits force the user to drill from both sides or use extensions that add run-out. This length matches typical stud bay distances so the choice rests on whether the job demands that reach.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the 72 in cable installer bit is drilling straight after attaching the quick-change hex?

Check that the 3/4 in drill bit size advances smoothly through the workpiece without wobble, and confirm the bright uncoated carbon steel tip cuts cleanly at full 72 in depth.

What comes in the box with the EA75072 and what must I supply?

The box contains the 72 in auger-style bit with 1/4 in shank diameter and 3/4 in hex shank; you supply the compatible drill or driver.

Should I choose the 3/4 in drill bit size or a different diameter for my cable runs?

Select the 3/4 in drill bit size when your cable bundle requires a 3/4 in hole; choose a different diameter bit if your cables need a larger or smaller opening.
