Nice that you can use it to pull from either side of the bit due to holes on both ends! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***R on 18 November 2022* Pratique ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by J***O on 24 December 2020* Drilled through the wall header like butter. The bit has 3 flats to prevent slippage. I did not hold the trigger full blast but eased on it to prevent any sudden torque and it worked well. I used it in conjunction with one of those locator ball things to center the hole. Suggestion: get the longer bit. The 54 inch was just barely long enough to reach from a switch box hole through the wall header plate. ## Frequently Bought Together - Klein Tools 53718 9/16-Inch By 54-Inch Flex Bit Auger With Screw Point - Klein Tools Pass-Thru Modular Wire Crimper, All-in-One Tool Cuts, Strips, Crimps, Fast and Reliable VDV226-110, Yellow/Black, Pack of 1 - KLEIN TOOLS VDV501-851 Scout Pro 3 Cable Tester --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.uy/products/171659533-klein-tools-53718-9-16-inch-by-54-inch-flex](https://www.desertcart.uy/products/171659533-klein-tools-53718-9-16-inch-by-54-inch-flex) --- *Product available on Desertcart Uruguay* *Store origin: UY* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
