Weldtec Ship Auger, 9/16 X 17-in.

Introducing the WeldTec 9/16" x 17" Ship Auger, a rugged fastening tool engineered for demanding construction and framing jobs. The auger features a precisely welded cutting edge that fuses to a solid forged steel body, delivering a sleek profile and a robust appearance that resists wear even under continuous impact driving.

Built for performance: The reinforced cutting edge doubles the nail‑driving lifespan compared with conventional ship augers, letting you work faster and with fewer bit changes. Its wide‑flute design removes material efficiently, while the 7/16" quick‑change impact shank lets you swap bits in seconds, keeping your workflow uninterrupted.

• Patented welded cutting edge: Provides a harder, longer‑lasting tip that outperforms standard Irwin ship augers.
• Fully forged steel body: Guarantees structural integrity for bits 3/4" diameter and larger, reducing the risk of breakage.
• 7/16" quick‑change shank: Enables rapid bit swaps on impact drivers, saving valuable time on the jobsite.
• Wide flutes for efficient material removal: Cuts cleanly through wood, minimizing friction and heat buildup.
• Extended nail‑cutting life: Up to twice the service life of traditional ship augers, lowering overall tool cost.
