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

Milwaukee 7/8 in. D X 6.5 in. L Auger Bit Hardened Steel is engineered for woodworkers who demand clean, breakout-free holes in thick stock. Heat-treated for lasting edge retention, this bit stays sharp longer, powering through both softwoods and hardwoods with confidence.

Key specifications at a glance: a 7/8" cutting diameter, 6.5" overall length for deep holes, and a hex shank with a 7/16" diameter that delivers a secure, slip-resistant grip in drills and impact drivers.

  • Durable, heat-treated hardened steel: designed to resist dulling under heavy use, so you get more usable holes and less downtime for sharpening or replacement.
  • Smooth, breakout-free holes: refined flute geometry and a sharp center tip minimize wandering and tear-out, yielding clean, round exits every time.
  • Secure hex shank: 7/16" hex shank improves grip and reduces cam-out in standard drill chucks and quick-change adapters.
  • Ideal for thick stock and large-diameter work: perfect for cabinetry, furniture making, framing, and deck projects where large-diameter holes are needed for dowels, hardware, or pass-throughs.
  • Convenient packaging: sold as a single piece in boxed packaging, ready to drop into your toolbox for immediate use on-site or in the shop.

Use cases and benefits in real-world projects: create precise entry and exit holes for heavy-duty joinery, drill clean large holes for through-hod dowels, or route electrical and plumbing pass-throughs in wooden components. Compared to untreated or lower-grade bits, this Milwaukee auger bit delivers superior wear resistance and longer life, making it a trustworthy choice for daily use in professional workshops and serious hobby setups.

Pro tips: maintain a steady feed, start with a light plunge to establish the hole, and run at moderate speeds to preserve the bit’s edge. For hardwoods, consider a brief cooling pause if drilling deep or dense stock. With its hardened steel construction and optimized design, this auger bit becomes a reliable workhorse for any woodworking project.

Their Counter
Try local first · we'll wait

The stores we send you to are local and independently run — often for generations, the kind of place where someone behind the counter knows the regulars. We don't own them. We just think they deserve the foot traffic. They can put most of what we sell on their next truck. Ask there before you check out here.

About our directory. National Hardware Group is an independent retailer and directory. The local stores we list and link to are separately owned and operated — we have no ownership stake in any of them, and most pay us nothing to be included. That includes plenty of stores flying a co-op banner that people don't realize are locally owned and run, not operated by a corporation. Store owners can choose to upgrade their listing for an enhanced presence or pickup features, but the base directory is free, and inclusion is never a paid endorsement.
