Hole saw Dedra TCT 32 mm 5/8'' - universal cutting bit for metal, wood, plastics

Dedra TCT 32 mm 5/8'' hole saw is a universal cutting bit designed for creating precise round openings in metal, wood and plastics. Built with tungsten carbide tipped (TCT) teeth, this hole saw balances cutting speed and wear resistance for repetitive drilling tasks. The 32 mm cutting diameter and 5/8'' arbor connection suit common portable drills and drill presses used in installation, plumbing, electrical and general workshop work.

Advantages

The TCT teeth provide enhanced durability compared with conventional high-speed steel blades, reducing chipping and maintaining cutting performance over longer runs. Its universal design allows use on a variety of materials without frequent blade changes, while the 5/8'' arbor connection ensures compatibility with many drill chucks and arbor adaptors. The 32 mm diameter delivers a standard aperture size for applications such as conduit, pipe and fixture mounting.

Suitable for

• Cutting clean round openings in metal sheets and thin plate
• Creating holes in timber and plywood for joinery or fixtures
• Drilling through plastic panels, PVC and acrylic
• Installation tasks in plumbing and electrical work
• General workshop and maintenance hole cutting

Key specifications

• Cutting diameter: 32 mm
• Arbor connection: 5/8''
• Tooth type: Tungsten carbide tipped (TCT)
• Suitable materials: Metal, wood, plastics
• Intended use: Compatible with handheld drills and drill presses

How to use

Secure the hole saw on a compatible arbor and clamp the workpiece to prevent movement. Use appropriate feed pressure and steady drill speed for the material: slower speeds for hard metals, moderate speeds for wood, and controlled speeds for plastics to avoid melting. Apply cutting fluid when drilling metal to reduce heat and prolong tooth life. After cutting, remove burrs and clean the hole for a precise fit of fittings or pipes.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match drill speed and use cutting lubricant when working with metals; allow the tool to cool between consecutive cuts to preserve the TCT teeth. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves, and ensure secure clamping of the workpiece before drilling.
