Hole saw Abraboro bimetal HSS-Co 46 × 38 mm model AB30046000

Hole saw Abraboro bimetal HSS-Co 46 × 38 mm model AB30046000 is a cutting tool designed to produce clean circular holes with a diameter of 46 mm and a cutting depth of 38 mm. Made from bimetal HSS-Co (high-speed steel with cobalt alloying) for improved heat resistance and wear performance, this hole saw is suitable for through and plunge cutting in a range of materials commonly encountered in installation and fabrication work.

Advantages

The bimetal construction combines a high-speed steel cutting edge with a flexible backing, delivering increased durability compared with standard carbon steels and improved resistance to heat buildup during aggressive drilling. The tooth geometry and HSS-Co composition provide reliable cutting performance in metal, plastics and wood-based panels, reducing the need for frequent tool changes. The 46 mm diameter and 38 mm depth cover typical pipe and conduit penetration requirements for many installation jobs.

Suitable for

• Cutting holes for pipes and conduits in metal and non-metallic panels
• Creating cable gland or cable entry openings
• Installing fixtures or hardware in wood-based panels and plastics
• Workshop and on-site metal fabrication where moderate-depth circular cutouts are required

Key specifications

• Cutting diameter: 46 mm
• Cutting depth: 38 mm
• Material: bimetal high-speed steel with cobalt (HSS-Co)
• Suitable for: ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, wood-based panels
• Design: toothed hole saw for plunge and through cutting

How to use

Fit the hole saw to a compatible arbor or drill adapter and secure it according to the arbor manufacturers instructions. Mark the centre point of the required hole and position the pilot bit or centering drill to maintain alignment. Use a drill or drill press capable of delivering stable speed and torque; start at low speed to establish the cut and increase speed as appropriate for the material. Apply steady, even pressure and allow the tool to do the cutting; avoid excessive feed rates that can cause overheating. For metal work, use appropriate cutting fluid to prolong tool life. Clear chips regularly to prevent clogging and maintain cutting efficiency.

Usage recommendations

Use the hole saw with a properly rated drill and arbor, match drill speed to the material (slower for metals, higher for plastics and wood), and apply cutting fluid when working with metals. Inspect the cutting teeth for wear and replace the hole saw when cutting quality or depth capability is reduced.
