Overview
TCT Hole Saw 40 mm for Metal with Tungsten Carbide Teeth and Titanium Coated Pilot Drill Depth of Cut 20 mm Stainless Steel and Wood

The TCT hole saw is designed for drilling circular holes with a diameter of 40 mm in steel, stainless steel, iron, and other metals. Its teeth are fitted with tungsten carbide cutting edges, which can handle work in hard materials. The centre pilot drill with a titanium coating drills a precise centre and keeps the hole saw aligned during drilling. This allows the hole to be created in one step without the need for sequential drilling with smaller bits. The hole saw can also be used for drilling into wood.

A diameter of 40 mm is useful, for example, for passing pipes and hoses, for installing cable glands and outlets, or for modifying metal covers, cabinets, and distribution boards. The teeth have an alternating geometry, so the left, centre, and right cutting edges are regularly repeated around the circumference. This divides the chip into smaller parts, allowing the tool to operate more smoothly with reduced vibrations. The useful depth of cut 20 mm is sufficient for sheets, strips, and the walls of steel profiles.

Before you start drilling, mark the centre of the hole and tap it with a centre punch to prevent the pilot drill from slipping on smooth metal. Secure the workpiece firmly in a vice or clamp. Position the hole saw perpendicular to the surface and start drilling slowly until the teeth evenly engage around the entire circumference. Then, you can apply a steady and even pressure. Support thin sheet metal with a board to prevent it from bending around the hole and to keep the edge straight.

For larger diameters of the hole saw, it is advisable to work at lower speeds than with smaller bits. Drill steel and stainless steel with cutting oil or other coolant, and allow the tool to cool between holes. After use, clean the hole saw of chips and store it in a dry place to prevent damage to the cutting edges. The pilot drill is secured in the body of the hole saw with a screw and can be replaced with a new one after wear.

The TCT hole saw 40 mm is a practical tool for plumbers, electricians, locksmiths, and DIY enthusiasts. The carbide cutting edges can handle stainless steel, and the spring on the pilot drill ejects the cut material after the hole is completed. The hole saw is clamped by the 10 mm shank into standard hand and stand drills. The total length of the tool is 80 mm. It is suitable for any workshop where metal work is regularly undertaken and precise circular holes are required.
