Metallics BHD6 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Why use a bell hanger drill bit instead of a regular long twist bit for running low voltage wire?
A bell hanger bit like the BHD6 has a hole through the tip. You drill the 5/16 inch hole, thread your wire or a pull string through the eye, and pull it back through the opening as you withdraw the bit, so drilling and fishing happen in one motion. A plain long twist bit drills the hole but leaves you to fish it separately. That is the whole reason this style is standard for alarm, telecom, and other low voltage work.
2) Will a 5/16 inch bell hanger bit leave a big enough hole for the cable I am pulling?
A 5/16 inch hole suits a pull string or a single small-gauge run, which is what bell hanger bits are generally used for on alarm, thermostat, and communications cable. If you need to pass a bundle, jacketed multi-conductor cable, or anything approaching the diameter of romex, step up to a larger bell hanger bit or an auger. The BHD6 is the 5/16 inch, 18 inch size.
3) What is the exact part number to order the Metallics 5/16 inch, 18 inch bell hanger bit?
Metallics part number BHD6. That designation covers the 5/16 inch diameter by 18 inch bell hanger bit, single piece, and it is the number to quote if you are matching what is already in a stockroom or on a materials list.
4) Does the Metallics BHD6 come as a single bit or a multi-piece set?
One bit per package, supplied in a pouch. Order the quantity you need if you want spares on the truck, since a long small-diameter bit is the one most likely to wander or snap in hard framing.
