Hole saws are drill bits that consist of a saw blade holder and a central pilot drill which determines the position of the hole. Often, interchangeable saw blades are locked on the holder one at a time.

There is significant kickback when (mis-)using this tool, take the time do it right!


Proper Use

Use a drill at high speed but little pressure.

No hammering drill can be used to saw holes.

Besides keeping the saws intact, please take personal safety precautions and wear safety goggles!
