Hole saw Dedra TCT 95 mm 5/8'' for cutting wood and soft materials

Dedra TCT 95 mm hole saw with a 5/8" arbor thread is designed for cutting circular openings in wood and other soft materials. The tool features tungsten carbide-tipped (TCT) teeth that maintain cutting performance and resist wear during repetitive use. Intended for use with compatible electric drills and drill presses, this hole saw is suitable for creating openings for door hardware, pipe passages, and general woodworking tasks that require smooth, accurate holes.

Advantages

The TCT teeth deliver durable cutting performance and longer life compared with standard bi-metal saws when working in wood and soft non-ferrous materials. The 95 mm diameter provides a common size for fittings and hardware, while the 5/8" arbor thread ensures compatibility with many standard drill arbors and adaptors. The construction promotes clean circular cuts with reduced splintering when used with appropriate pilot bits and correct feed rates.

Suitable for

• Cutting door lock and latch holes in wooden doors
• Creating pipe and conduit pass-throughs in wooden panels
• General woodworking where clean circular holes are required
• Use with drill presses and hand-held drills that accept 5/8" arbor thread

Key specifications

• Cutting diameter: 95 mm
• Arbor thread: 5/8"
• Tooth material: tungsten carbide tipped (TCT)
• Intended materials: wood and similar soft materials
• Recommended drive: compatible electric drills and drill presses

How to use

Secure the hole saw to a compatible arbor with a 5/8" thread, and ensure the pilot bit is properly installed and centered. Mark the cutting location on the workpiece and clamp the material firmly to prevent movement. Start drilling at low speed to establish the pilot hole, then increase speed moderately while applying steady, even pressure. Clear chips regularly to avoid overheating and inspect the blade for wear or damage during prolonged use.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use appropriate pilot bits and a backing board to reduce tear-out on thin or veneered panels. Use lubricants or intermittent cutting to reduce heat build-up when making multiple or deep cuts. Replace the hole saw if carbide teeth become chipped or excessively worn to maintain clean cutting performance.
