12-Inch Drill Bit Extension with 1/4-Inch Hex Shank, Impact-Strong Quick-Change Holder for Tight Spaces
A 12-inch drill bit extension carries compatible 1/4-inch hex accessories deeper into cabinets, framing cavities and other hard-to-reach work areas. The added reach reduces awkward tool angles, while a quick-change holder allows fast accessory swaps without extra hand tools when a project alternates between drilling and driving.
Impact Strong technology reinforces shank stability for compatible corded and cordless impact or drill drivers. Choose the featured 12 x 1/4-inch format or listed 6-inch, 18-inch and alternate-shank variants to match reach and accessory size. A two-pack of the 12-inch version is also available for keeping a spare in another toolbox.
