Design: Robust, shatterproof construction with variable tooth pitch on a flexible special steel body (bimetal). The reinforced, rigid base is equipped with threads and drive holes (from ⌀ 32 mm) for secure mounting on the shank. The high quality of the HSS teeth, the tooth geometry, and the low manufacturing tolerances ensure optimal cutting performance and long lifespan. Variable tooth pitch of 4.5 / 5.5 teeth per inch with reinforced teeth (Tough Teeth). Maximum cutting depth for all sizes is 40 mm. Optimized coating reduces heat generation. SPEED SLOT – Quick removal of the core through stepped cutouts. Note: Adapter shanks and hole saws are compatible with all commercially available bimetal hole saws, but not Bosch-SDS. For stone, see No. 788000. Carbide hole cutters for steel see No. 118400, 118500, 119000. Usage: On stationary drilling machines, lathes, or electric hand drills with appropriate speed. For cutting round holes in thin to thick-walled materials with flat or curved workpiece surfaces. Suitable for all materials such as steel, stainless steel, brass, copper, cast iron, lightweight metals, wood, gypsum, and plastic sheets, etc. Lubricant supply increases tool life (metals). Also well-suited for thin body panels.
