Star-M Long 457mm hardwood ship augers, 16mm

Star-M 8L Series is a range of thirteen long ship auger bits for hardwood, from 10mm to 32mm in diameter. Every size is 457mm overall. The 8L is a long ship auger with a 381mm twist length, suited to hardwood applications. It is the long-reach option in the Star-M hardwood range; the diameters sit on the same 457mm body, so the choice is by hole size alone.

Key specifications

Choosing the right option

Choose by hole diameter. All thirteen sizes share the same 457mm length, so there is no length trade-off to weigh within this range. If you only need to reach about 305mm, the 8M Series medium-length hardwood auger drill bits have a shorter body in the same diameters. The 12mm and 13mm sizes are also sold together as the 8L Series 12mm and 13mm hardwood auger bundle.
