JOBIprofi tungsten carbide hole saw 35 mm (model W01135) is designed to cut precise circular openings in wood and other soft materials. The tool features carbide teeth that deliver improved wear resistance and extended service life compared with standard bi-metal hole saws. With a 35 mm cutting diameter, this hole saw is intended for use with handheld drills and drill presses for tasks in carpentry, plumbing, electrical installation and general joinery.
Advantages
The carbide-tipped cutting edge maintains sharpness longer under repeated use, reducing the need for frequent replacement. The 35 mm diameter produces consistent, clean holes with minimal tear-out when used correctly. The construction is suited to cutting through soft materials quickly and with stable centring when combined with an appropriate pilot drill or arbor.
Suitable for
- Creating holes for pipes and conduits in wooden panels
- Making cable and outlet cutouts in furniture or interior fixtures
- Installing door hardware or fitting components that require 35 mm holes
- Drill-press or handheld drill work on softwoods, plywood and similar materials
When it may not be suitable
This hole saw is not intended for cutting hard metals, masonry, ceramic tile, or reinforced concrete. Using the tool on materials harder than its intended range can accelerate wear or damage the carbide teeth. For precision metal cutting or very hard substrates, choose a tool specifically designed for those materials.
Key specifications
- Cutting diameter: 35 mm
- Tooth material: tungsten carbide (carbide-tipped)
- Intended materials: wood and other soft materials (e.g., plywood, chipboard)
- Compatible drive: standard drill or drill press with appropriate arbor
How to use
Secure an appropriate arbor and pilot drill in the hole saw, mount the assembly in a drill or drill press, and set a moderate speed suitable for wood. Mark the centre point of the desired hole, position the pilot drill, and start drilling with steady, even pressure. Allow the tool to cut without forcing; clear chips regularly to prevent clogging and overheating. After cutting, remove the workpiece and inspect the hole for splintering; sanding or finishing may be applied if required.
What to consider before purchase
- Confirm the required hole diameter is 35 mm for your application
- Ensure your drill or drill press can accept the arbor and run at speeds suitable for wood cutting
- Consider whether carbide teeth are needed for your workload and material types
- Check that the intended materials are within the tool's recommended range (soft materials)
Usage recommendations
Use appropriate safety gear (eye protection, dust mask) and secure the workpiece before drilling. When cutting into veneered or laminated surfaces, consider using masking tape over the cut area to reduce tear-out. Replace or re-sharpen the arbor and pilot as needed to maintain accurate, clean cuts.
