Auger drill bit DeWalt DT4636-QZ – 1 pc, right-hand rotation, polybag

DeWalt DT4636-QZ is a single auger drill bit designed for right-hand rotation drilling in wood and general construction materials. The bit is supplied as one piece in a polybag with a hanging hole, making it convenient to store and identify on-site. Constructed from hardened alloy steel and heat treated and tempered for durability, this auger bit features a self-feed spur and a hollow center flute for efficient chip removal and steady penetration during boring tasks.

Advantages

The auger bit combines a dual-cutting edge and hardened alloy-steel construction to maintain cutting performance when encountering embedded nails and other obstructions. Its self-feed spur supports faster entry and stable tracking, while the hollow center flute provides aggressive chip extraction to reduce clogging and heat build-up. Heat treatment and tempering improve wear resistance and extend service life under frequent use.

Suitable for

• Through-holes and deep-bore holes in soft and hardwoods
• General carpentry and construction drilling tasks
• Situations requiring rapid chip removal and stable feed
• Applications where right-hand rotation tools are used

Key specifications

• Material: hardened alloy steel with heat treatment and tempering for durability
• Cutting geometry: dual-cutting edge for improved durability when encountering fasteners
• Tip: self-feed spur for faster penetration and accurate tracking
• Flute: hollow center flute designed for aggressive chip extraction
• Rotation: right-hand rotation optimized
• Packaging: single piece in a polybag with hanging hole for retail or site storage

How to use

Mount the auger bit securely in a compatible right-hand rotation drill or brace. Align the self-feed spur with the intended drilling point and apply steady pressure while maintaining the drill at the correct speed for the wood type. Allow the self-feed spur to draw the bit into the material rather than forcing it, and periodically withdraw the bit to clear chips if drilling deep holes. Follow standard safety procedures including eye protection and secure workpiece clamping.

Usage recommendations

Use moderate drilling speed for softer woods and lower speed with steady feed in dense hardwoods to preserve bit life. Inspect the bit for damage after contact with metal fasteners; the dual-cutting edge improves resilience but checking for wear will help maintain consistent results. Store the bit in its polybag or a tool organizer to protect the cutting edges and prevent corrosion.
