CMT Carbide Tipped Hole Saw Soft - Hard Woods - 3-1/4 in. Diameter
CMT Carbide Tipped Hole Saw for Soft and Hard Woods - 3-1/4-in. Diameter
The CMT Carbide Tipped Hole Saw is designed for fast, clean, and precise hole cutting across a wide range of materials. Featuring durable carbide-tipped tungsten teeth, this 3-1/4-in. diameter hole saw delivers long cutting life and fast drilling performance. With a 2-1/16-in. cutting depth, it is well suited for woodworking, construction, remodeling, and installation applications.
Versatile Hole Cutting Performance
Engineered to cut both soft and hard materials, this CMT hole saw can be used on softwoods, hardwoods, 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.
Features and Benefits
- Carbide-Tipped Tungsten Teeth: Durable carbide teeth provide long service life and faster cutting performance compared with conventional hole saw designs.
- Fast-Lock Attachment: Compatible hole saw sizes can be attached to the shank quickly and without tools using a convenient one-click connection.
- Fast, Precise Drilling: Designed for accurate hole cutting, including drilling at extreme angles where precise positioning is important.
- Precise Hole Enlargement: Two hole saws can be mounted together to accurately enlarge an existing hole.
- Easy Plug Removal: Reverse the drill bit to help remove the cut plug quickly and effortlessly.
- Hex Shank: The hexagonal shank provides maximum non-slip power transfer between the drill and hole saw assembly.
Enlarge Existing Holes with Precision
CMT's hole saw system allows you to enlarge an existing hole without relying on complicated setups. By mounting two hole saws together, the smaller saw follows the existing opening while the larger saw cuts the new, larger diameter.
- Load the larger hole saw: Slide the larger hole saw onto the shank from the back until it reaches the ring stop.
- Load the smaller hole saw: Slide the smaller hole saw onto the shank from the front until it reaches the ring stop, then click it securely into place.
- Insert into the drill: Install the assembly into your drill with the larger hole saw positioned against the chuck.
Important: If the two hole saws use different shank sizes, a stepped shank such as CMT-Sh350-DB1 is required. Hole enlargement requires a minimum difference of 9 mm (23/64-in.) between the diameters of the two hole saws.
Ideal for Woodworking and Construction
With its large 3-1/4-in. diameter, durable carbide-tipped teeth, and versatile material compatibility, this CMT hole saw is an excellent choice for creating clean, accurate openings for woodworking, cabinetmaking, remodeling, plumbing, electrical work, and general construction applications.
Note: Shanks are sold separately.
