Milwaukee 48-13-7237 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What lengths does the Milwaukee 3/8 inch bellhanger bit come in?
Two lengths, both 3/8 inch diameter: an 18 inch bit, part number 48-13-7237, and a 24 inch bit, part number 48-13-7337. Pick the length by how deep the drill has to reach, top plates and stacked studs usually push you to the 24 inch.
2) Can I pull wire straight through the hole with this bellhanger bit?
Yes. The bit has a wire pulling hole at the tip so you can tie the wire or fish line to the bit and draw it back through the hole you just drilled, instead of making a second trip with a fish tape.
3) Will this bit spin in a standard drill chuck?
It shouldn't. The shank has three flats machined on it, which give a keyless or keyed chuck something to bite against so the bit doesn't slip under load when the tip grabs.
4) Does this bit bind up when drilling deep holes through studs?
The flutes are non-stick coated, which clears chips faster and cuts down on binding on long bores. Combined with the aggressive tip geometry it is built for the repeated through-drilling a rough-in electrician or low voltage installer does all day.
5) What size hole does a 3/8 inch bellhanger bit make, and is that enough for my cable?
It drills a 3/8 inch hole. That is the common size for running individual low voltage, alarm, and communications cable through framing. For larger NM cable bundles you'd step up to a bigger diameter bellhanger or an auger bit.
6) Is a bellhanger bit the same as an auger bit for running wire?
Not quite. A bellhanger like this 3/8 inch Milwaukee is a long, slim bit with a wire pulling hole through the tip, meant for drilling and then pulling the wire back through in one motion. Augers are for larger diameter holes and boring through heavy framing, and they have no wire hole. If your job is fishing cable through studs and plates, the bellhanger is the right tool.
