32mm 3-Flute Auger Bit - LT-AUG-32 | Lerin Tools
32mm 3‑Flute Auger Bit – LT-AUG-32 | Lerin Tools
The Lerin Tools 32mm 3‑Flute Auger Bit is built for fast, clean drilling of large holes in timber. The self‑feeding tip pulls the bit through the wood, while the three‑flute design clears chips quickly to reduce clogging and heat build‑up. This makes it ideal for drilling through beams, joists and posts on framing, decking and construction work.
The precision cutting geometry and outer cutting edges are designed to leave a smooth hole with reduced tear‑out on entry and exit. Manufactured from hardened high‑carbon tool steel, the bit delivers long service life and reliable performance in softwood and hardwood when used at the correct speed.

FAQs
What materials can this auger bit drill?
It is designed for softwood, most hardwoods, LVL, plywood, MDF and chipboard. Extremely dense or exotic hardwoods may require slower speeds and careful feed pressure.
What kind of drill should I use?
Use a power drill or low‑speed rotary hammer (drill mode) with enough torque for 32mm auger bits. Large augers run best at lower speeds to prevent overheating and burning the timber.
Is this suitable for deep holes?
The 3‑flute design helps clear chips quickly, which is important for deeper holes. For very deep drilling, withdraw the bit periodically to clear chips and prevent binding.
Will it work in an impact driver?
If the shank is hex and your impact driver is rated for auger use, it may be compatible, but a high‑torque drill is generally preferred for smoother control with large auger bits.
