Tork Craft Scotch Eye Auger Bit 20mm x 400mm

Application: A scotch eyed auger drill bit is used to bore holes in timber for hand operation where there is no electrical power. It is great for drilling holes in thatch poles to insert threaded rods. A branch or dowel is inserted in the eye of the auger to become the handle to turn the auger drill bit by hand. The handle is not supplied. The pilot guide is threaded to "pull" the drill bit into the wood. The cutting edge forms part of the auger helix to assist the drill bit with the removal of shavings.
