In-Store Exclusive

This one's worth the trip to the store.

Brands like Weber, Milwaukee, Yeti, and DeWalt restrict where their products can be sold online — and for good reason. In-store buyers get authentic products, full manufacturer warranty, and access to pricing that simply isn't allowed to be advertised on the web.

  • Authorized dealer network · Full manufacturer warranty & support
  • Guaranteed authentic · No counterfeits, no gray-market resellers
  • The brands set these standards · Be wary of sellers who don't follow them

Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

Meet the Milwaukee 1-1/4 in. x 6 in. L Heat-Treated Steel Self-Feed Drill Bit with Hex Shank—a purpose-built tool for serious woodworking tasks. Built from heat-treated steel and finished with a durable coating, this bit is designed to withstand repeated use in demanding holes, delivering cleaner cuts and a longer service life than ordinary bits.

  • Size and reach: 1-1/4" drill diameter with a 6" overall length and a 3/4" flute length, giving you the reach and chip evacuation you need for deep holes and large-diameter cutting in wooden workpieces.
  • Durable construction: Heat-treated steel construction provides enhanced wear resistance and extended bit life when drilling through hard or dense woods.
  • Coated finish: A protective coating reduces friction, minimizes heat buildup, and helps resist rust in challenging shop conditions.
  • Secure hex shank: 7/16" hex shank ensures a confident, slip-free bite in drills and impact drivers, improving overall control and reducing cam-out during aggressive feeds.
  • Self-Feed design: The self-feeding style guides the bit for quick, accurate entry and consistent hole progression, so you spend less time guiding and more time building.
  • Packaging and convenience: Sold as a single piece in clamshell packaging for easy storage and quick access in the jobbet, making it ideal for on-the-spot upgrades to your drill kit.

Ideal use cases

This bit excels when you need fast, precise, large-diameter holes in wood—perfect for running conduit, wiring, or thick-drawer compartments, and for applications where a clean, oversized hole is essential. It’s a reliable choice for professional carpenters, electricians, and serious DIYers tackling long, through-holes in softwood or hardwood alike.

Why choose this Milwaukee self-feed bit over alternatives

Compared to standard wood bits, the combination of heat-treated steel and a robust coating provides extended wear resistance and smoother cutting under heavy use. The 6" length helps you reach deeper without compromising control, while the 7/16" hex shank locks securely into your drill or impact driver for confident, steady cutting. The self-feed design reduces the effort required to progress through the workpiece, so you can complete large-diameter holes more efficiently and with less chatter.

Pro tips for best results

  • Center-punch the planned hole to prevent wandering, then start at a slow speed and steady pressure to establish a clean entry.
  • Clamp the workpiece firmly and backer-board-cross to reduce tear-out on the exit side.
  • Use a pilot bit if you’re drilling through particularly dense or layered wood to guide the larger bit.
  • Keep the bit cool by intermittent drilling if cutting through very dense material to extend bit life.
