CMT Carbide Tipped Hole Saw - 2-1/2 Diameter x 2-1/16 Depth
CMT Carbide Tipped Hole Saw - 2-1/2-in. Diameter x 2-1/16-in. Cutting Depth
The CMT Carbide Tipped Hole Saw is designed for fast, accurate hole cutting across a wide range of materials. With a 2-1/2-in. diameter and 2-1/16-in. cutting depth, this hole saw is ideal for woodworking, remodeling, installation, and general construction applications where clean, precise openings are required.
Versatile Cutting Performance
Carbide-tipped tungsten teeth provide long-lasting cutting performance and fast material removal. This CMT hole saw is suitable for cutting soft and hard woods, chipboard, plywood, MDF, plastic, gypsum and plasterboard, tiles, solid brick, aerated concrete block, lightweight aggregate block, breeze block, and soft-density lime-sand stone block with a maximum hardness of 30 N/mm2.
Fast, Precise Hole Cutting
- 2-1/2-in. Hole Saw Diameter: Provides a large cutting capacity for a variety of installation and construction applications.
- 2-1/16-in. Cutting Depth: Allows for deep hole cutting in compatible materials.
- Carbide-Tipped Tungsten Teeth: Deliver fast cutting action, durability, and extended service life compared with conventional hole saw teeth.
- Fast-Lock Attachment: Compatible hole saw sizes can be attached to the appropriate shank quickly and without tools.
- Precise Drilling: Designed for accurate drilling, including applications requiring drilling at challenging angles.
- Hex Shank: Provides secure, non-slip power transfer between the drill and hole saw assembly.
Precisely Enlarge Existing Holes
The CMT hole saw system can also be configured to enlarge an existing hole with precision. By mounting two compatible hole saws on the same shank, the smaller saw guides the assembly through the existing opening while the larger saw cuts the new diameter.
How to Enlarge an Existing Hole
- Slide the larger hole saw onto the shank from the back until it reaches the ring stop.
- Slide the smaller hole saw onto the shank from the front until it reaches the ring stop, then click it securely into place.
- Insert the assembled hole saw into the drill with the larger hole saw seated against the chuck.
Important: Hole enlargement requires a minimum difference of 9 mm (23/64-in.) between the diameters of the two hole saws. If the two hole saws use different shank sizes, the stepped shank CMT-Sh350-DB1 is required.
Easy Plug Removal
After cutting, the material plug can be removed easily by reversing the drill bit, helping simplify cleanup and keep projects moving efficiently.
Shank Sold Separately
Shanks are sold separately. Select the appropriate CMT shank or stepped shank for your hole saw configuration and drill setup.
