Overview

The Diablo 2-1/2 in. Bi-Metal Hole Saw (model DHS2500W24) is built for pros and serious DIYers. This is a bi-metal hole saw designed for cutting holes in wood, plastic, aluminum, steel and stainless steel.

Diablo's bi-metal hole saws are built for electricians, plumbers and HVAC installers who bore holes all day. The 2-1/2 in. size is a common size for conduit, pipe, fixture and fitting penetrations.

The 2-3/8 in. (60 mm) cutting depth is about 40% deeper than standard hole saws, so you can finish through thicker material and doubled-up framing in one pass instead of digging out the plug and coming back.

It runs on Diablo's Snap-Lock Plus mandrel system for fast mounting, and the design allows tool-free plug ejection. The Variable Tooth Design cuts faster with less vibration in wood, plastic, aluminum, metal and stainless steel.

Ideal for electrical, plumbing, HVAC, carpentry and remodeling work.

Pro Tip

In metal, slow the drill down and use cutting fluid. Running a bi-metal hole saw too fast in steel burns the teeth in seconds.
