Wood Auger Bit Condor CONDOR 10 x 230 mm CON-DA230-10 for Through and Deep Holes

Condor wood auger bit 10 x 230 mm (model CON-DA230-10) is a spiral-style drill bit designed for creating clean through and deep holes in solid wood and timber. With a 10 mm cutting diameter and a 230 mm overall length, this auger bit is compatible with hand braces and with power drill adaptors that accept auger-style shanks. The spiral flute geometry removes chips efficiently to maintain drilling speed and reduce binding when working in long grain or thick sections.

Advantages

The auger design provides fast chip ejection and consistent hole quality along the full 230 mm length. Its 10 mm diameter delivers precise, repeatable holes for dowels, bolts or conduit runs in carpentry and joinery tasks. The cutting tip is shaped for accurate centring and reduced walking at the start of the hole, while the spiral body helps stabilize the bit during deep drilling. The bit’s length and flute profile make it practical for both through-holes and deep blind holes in structural and finish woodwork.

Suitable for

• Drilling through-holes and deep pockets in solid wood and timber
• Preparing holes for dowels, bolts, or threaded inserts in carpentry
• Timber framing and joinery where long-reach drilling is required
• Use with hand braces, auger-compatible chucks or power drill adapters

Key specifications

• Cutting diameter: 10 mm
• Overall length: 230 mm
• Spiral flute design for efficient chip removal
• Auger-style tip for reliable centring and reduced walking
• Suitable for solid wood and timber materials

How to use

Secure the wood piece and mark the drilling position. Fit the auger bit into a compatible hand brace or into a drill with the appropriate adaptor or chuck that accepts auger-style shanks. Start drilling at low speed to ensure the tip centers correctly, then apply steady pressure and maintain a consistent rotation speed. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear chips from the flutes during deep drilling. After finishing, retract the bit fully and clear remaining debris from the hole and flutes before storing.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as eye protection and gloves. For best results in hardwoods, reduce feed pressure and clear chips more frequently. When using power tools, select a compatible adaptor and avoid excessive speed to prevent overheating or clogging of the flutes.
