YATO YT-3298 Wood Auger Bits – 6-piece set, diameters 10-20 mm, length 230 mm
A set of six carbon steel auger bits for wood. Designed for drilling holes in solid wood, furniture boards and plywood. Fitted with a threaded lead screw and a hex shank compatible with drills fitted with chucks up to 13 mm.
Technical features of the wood auger bits
Carbon steel as the working material
Auger bits made from carbon steel are characterised by increased hardness and wear resistance when drilling wood-based materials. This material allows the cutting edges to be sharpened repeatedly without any loss of cutting performance.
Threaded lead screw
The thread on the tip of the bit stabilises the tool at the start of drilling, eliminating bit wander across the surface of the material. This ensures accurate hole positioning without the need for pre-drilling.
Ground cutting edges
Professional grinding of the working edges increases cutting efficiency and reduces the pressure required to produce the hole. This means less load on the drill and cleaner hole edges without splintering the wood.
Hex shank
The hex shank prevents the bit from turning in the drill chuck when working under load. Compatible with standard drill chucks up to 13 mm, as fitted to most cordless and corded drills.

Choosing the right auger bit diameter
How to choose the correct auger bit diameter
The bit diameter should match the outside diameter of the dowel or screw. For wood screws, choose a diameter 1-2 mm smaller than the shank diameter of the screw so that the thread grips properly. For wooden dowels, the hole diameter should be identical to the dowel diameter for press-fit joints, or 0.5 mm larger for glued joints.
Use and maintenance
Before drilling, make sure that the bits are correctly secured in the drill chuck. A loose fit can lead to off-centre drilling or damage to the tool. Moderate speeds are recommended during work – too high a rotational speed causes the cutting edges to overheat and burn.
After use, clean the bits of any remaining sawdust and wood dust. Periodic lubrication of the spiral with machine oil prevents corrosion and makes it easier to clear chips while drilling. If the cutting edges become blunt, they can be re-sharpened with a diamond file or a drill bit sharpener.
Safety while working
Wear safety goggles when drilling wood to protect against flying chips and splinters. Work gloves are also recommended when changing bits. The workpiece should be securely clamped to prevent it from moving while drilling. When drilling right through the material, place a sacrificial board on the exit side of the bit to prevent the material from breaking out.
