    Hole Saws

    These standard saws have high-speed steel teeth to make circular cuts in wood, plastic, and metal. Often used to remove more material than drill bits, they help with tasks such as creating cutouts for doorknobs or cables. Attach them to a drill or drill press. An arbor with pilot drill (sold separately) is required.

    Unthreaded Arbor Hole—Unthreaded hole saws attach and detach from compatible arbors more quickly than threaded hole saws. Use a simple push-and-turn motion to attach and detach the saw, instead of having to thread it on and off.
    Variable-Set Tooth—Saws with variable-set teeth make faster cuts with less vibration than saws with constant-set teeth.

    Long-Life Hole Saws

    With carbide teeth—the hardest in our hole saw offering—these hole saws cut through harder materials and stay sharp for up to twice as long as saws with high-speed steel teeth. All require an arbor (sold separately). Use them in drills and drill presses to create perfectly round holes, such as enclosure cut-outs for cable to pass through.

    Lower cutting depths than standard hole saws make these saws less likely to rip or tear while making smooth, burr-free cuts in sheets. All saws are made entirely of heat-treated high-speed steel for cutting aluminum, brass, bronze, and steel. Attach hole saws to a drill or drill press with the included arbors.

    Hole Saw Kits

    Cut perfectly round holes in a variety of diameters. With variable-set teeth, the saws make quick cuts through wood, sheet metal, and other materials with minimal vibration. Also known as bimetal hole saws, they have high-speed steel teeth and a steel body. Often used to remove more material than drill bits, these saws are helpful for jobs such as creating cutouts for doorknobs or cables. Attach them to a drill or drill press with the included arbors.
    Quick-change hole saw arbors use a simple push-and-turn motion to attach and detach the saw. This makes it easy to quickly change sizes, instead of having to screw a hole saw on and off.
    Quick-release pilot drill bits are easy to remove—just pull them out of your saw without any special tools.

Heat-treated high-speed steel teeth cut through aluminum, brass, bronze, and steel. Use these saws on a drill or drill press. An arbor (sold separately) is required.
    Arbors with pilot drill guide your cut.
    Arbors with spring-loaded pilot pins push out the slug as you cut. They require a drilled pilot hole.

    Fast-Cut Hole Saw Kits

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Hole Saws. Fast-Cut Hole Saw Kits.
    Quickly cut perfectly round holes in multiple sizes—these kits come with at least six hole saws in different diameters. Their specially designed teeth cut through wood, sheet metal, and other materials faster than the teeth on standard hole saws. Made with high-speed steel teeth and a steel body, they’re often called bimetal hole saws. Unlike drills, these saws make circular cuts without cutting up the material of the core. Use them to cut large holes, such as a cutout in a door for a doorknob. Attach them to a drill or drill press with the included arbors.

    The diamond-grit edge on these hole saws cuts more accurately, leaves a smoother finish, and lasts up to twice as long as carbide-grit-coated teeth. Saws are for use on reinforced plastic, Kevlar, stone, brick, and other abrasive materials with high silicon content. Attach them to a drill or drill press. An arbor with pilot drill (sold separately) is required. To cut ceramic tile, you must use a 1/4" carbide-tipped pilot drill.
