## Summary description

YATO wood auger bit, 16 mm cutting diameter with a hex shank (YT-61741). Designed for drilling clean, deep holes in timber and wood-based materials. The auger tip and screw point allow fast chip removal and guided drilling, suitable for hand braces and power drills with a compatible hex chuck. Ideal for carpentry, joinery and installation tasks.

## Long description

YATO 16 mm wood auger bit with a hex shank is designed for efficient drilling of clean, deep holes in timber and wood-based materials. The spiral flute and auger tip ensure continuous chip evacuation while the self-feeding screw point guides the bit into the material for straight, accurate drilling. The hex shank provides secure engagement in compatible chucks and hand braces, offering stable torque transfer for both manual and powered drilling.
Advantages
The auger geometry delivers fast cutting and effective chip removal, reducing clogging during prolonged drilling. The screw point enables precise start-up and reduces walking on the workpiece, improving hole placement accuracy. A hex shank ensures reliable grip in hex chucks and reduces slippage compared to round-shanked bits. The durable construction is intended to withstand the torsional loads typical for woodworking tasks.
Suitable for
 Drilling holes in softwood and hardwood for carpentry and joinery
 Creating deep bored holes for bolts, dowels or wiring passes
 Installation work where guided, straight holes are required
 Use with hand braces and power drills equipped with a compatible hex chuck
Key specifications
 Cutting diameter: 16 mm
 Shank type: hexagonal shank for improved grip
 Tip type: auger tip with screw point for self-feeding
 Flute: spiral flute for continuous chip evacuation
 Material: hardened steel construction suitable for woodworking
How to use
Secure the auger bit in a compatible hex chuck or hand brace, ensuring the shank is fully seated. Mark the drilling position on the workpiece and align the screw point with the mark. Apply steady, moderate pressure while maintaining the drill axis perpendicular to the surface; the screw point will draw the bit into the wood. Withdraw the bit occasionally to clear chips when drilling deep holes and to prevent overheating. For through-holes, reduce feed near the exit to minimize splintering at the far side.
Usage recommendations
Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and hearing protection. Select a drill speed suitable for the wood species (lower speeds for hardwoods), and avoid excessive lateral force to prevent bit breakage. Periodically clean the flutes and sharpen or replace the bit when cutting performance decreases.
