Cable installer bit for deep drilling
The Eagle Tool US EM37554 is a carbide-tipped drill bit designed for cable installation work. Its 54 in overall length and 52 in maximum drilling depth suit electricians and low-voltage installers who need to reach through studs, joists or conduit runs. The 3/8 in cutting diameter creates a clean hole for pulling wire or cable. A powder-coated finish helps resist corrosion on job sites.
Shank and chuck compatibility
The bit uses a 3/16 in hex shank with three flats that lock into a standard drill chuck or quick-change adapter without slipping. This straight-shank design fits most corded and cordless drills, freeing the user from proprietary bit holders. The 16 in shank diameter matches common chuck capacities, so no special tooling is required to start the job.
Capacity and reach limits
The 52 in maximum drilling depth covers typical residential and light-commercial framing spans in a single pass. Beyond that depth the bit cannot reach, so installers working in taller walls or deeper floor systems will need an extension or a longer bit. The fixed 3/8 in hole size also limits the cable bundle diameter that can be pulled through.

Questions about this item
How deep can the 54 in cable installer bit drill in a single pass?
The maximum drilling depth is 52 in, leaving a short section of the 54 in overall length for chuck engagement.
Does the carbide tip generate excessive heat during continuous drilling through joists?
The powder-coated body and serrated cutting edges help dissipate heat, but the bit has no internal cooling so periodic withdrawal is recommended.
What chuck size is required for the 3/16 in hex shank on this bit?
A drill with a 3/16 in hex chuck or a compatible keyless chuck that accepts 3/16 in shanks is needed to secure the bit.
