Overview

The NSi Industries AL1 Auger Bit (SKU: AL1) is a precision-engineered drilling tool built for industrial and heavy-duty applications requiring deep, clean holes in wood, plastic, and soft metals. Featuring a 1-inch bit diameter and an 18-inch overall length, this auger bit delivers exceptional reach and control for tasks such as electrical conduit installation, plumbing runs, and general construction. The 7/16-inch hex shank ensures a secure, slippage-free fit in compatible power tools, including drills and impact drivers, while the twist flute design promotes efficient chip removal and reduces friction for faster, smoother drilling. Constructed from heat-treated steel, the AL1 is designed to withstand the rigors of daily use, including cutting through nails and other embedded materials without compromising performance. The single twist with a self-feeding screw point cuts smoothly through wood, while the hollow center facilitates fast chip flow, minimizing clogging and overheating. Compatible with NSi Industries' auger bit extensions (sold separately), this bit can be extended to 24 inches for deeper drilling applications. For maintenance, the bit can be resharpened using a Cully™ auger bit sharpening file (Part #09382), extending its service life and reducing replacement costs. Ideal for electricians, carpenters, contractors, and DIYers, the AL1 is a versatile addition to any toolkit where precision and durability are critical. Backed by NSi Industries' reputation for quality, this auger bit is manufactured in the USA and distributed by Gross Automation for reliable performance in demanding environments.
