Metallics BHDM12 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the fish hole on a bell hanger drill bit for?
The BHDM12 has a fish hole near the tip. After you drill through, you leave the bit in the hole, thread your wire or pull string through the hole, and back the bit out, dragging the cable with it. One pass does the drilling and the pulling, which is why alarm and low voltage installers use these instead of a standard auger.
2) Will the Metallics BHDM12 drill through brick or block, or is it wood only?
It is carbide tipped, so it handles masonry as well as wood. Carbide tipped bell hanger bits are the ones electricians reach for when a run goes from a basement through a block foundation or a brick veneer, where a plain high speed steel bit would dull on the first hole.
3) Is the BHDM12 sold individually or in a multi-pack?
One bit per order, supplied in a pouch. If you are kitting out a crew or stocking a service van, order the quantity you need rather than expecting a set.
4) Should I use a 1/2 inch bell hanger bit or a larger one for running cable?
A 1/2 inch hole, which is what the BHDM12 cuts, suits single or small bundles of low voltage cable, coax, or alarm wire. If you are pulling several jacketed cables or a larger bundle through one penetration, step up to a bigger diameter bell hanger bit rather than drilling two 1/2 inch holes side by side and weakening the member.
