EXTRACUT T.C.T. (Tungsten Carbide Tipped) Hole Saws engineered for fast, clean cutting through ferrous and non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, wood, and plastic. Each hole saw features a robust bi-metal body with precision-ground carbide-tipped teeth that maintain sharpness far longer than conventional bi-metal holesaws. The vari-pitch tooth design reduces vibration and chip clogging, delivering smooth hole edges with minimal burr formation.
Key Features
- Carbide-Tipped Teeth — Industrial-grade tungsten carbide tips brazed onto a high-speed steel body, offering 3-5x the cutting life of standard bi-metal hole saws.
- Vari-Pitch Tooth Design — Alternating tooth pitch minimizes harmonic vibration during cutting, reducing operator fatigue and extending tool life.
- Deep-Cut Capability — Available in depths up to 50mm (2 inches), suitable for thick-walled tubing, structural steel, and multi-layer materials.
- Bi-Metal Body Construction — HSS (M2) body with spring steel backing plate provides exceptional toughness and resistance to tooth breakage under impact loads.
- Universal Arbor Interface — Standard pilot drill arbor fitting works with most common drill chucks and magnetic base drills.
- Cooling Slots — Strategically placed gullets improve chip evacuation and heat dissipation during prolonged cutting operations.
Applications
Ideal for HVAC ductwork installation, plumbing pipe penetration, electrical conduit cutting, automotive body panel work, metal fabrication shops, shipbuilding repair, and general maintenance departments requiring clean, precise holes in steel, aluminum, stainless steel, wood, and composite materials.
