Tried bi-metal hole saw to cut hole in stucco. One hole and teeth were gone. Tried this hole saw and worked well. Cut five holes in stucco and can hardly see any wear on carbide teeth. Recommend it for cementitious materials.

Its a great bit and a good price but I would just like to say the center taping bit is not carbide dipped and thats frustrating for me personally.My job went well with the product I would reccommend it to others.COOL with water while cutting!

Intended for light duty, shallow holes. Good price, quality fabrication for intended use. Centering bit included. Needs standard hole saw bit mount.

I haven’t used the drill yet to make a hole in a security screen door screen material. I’m sure it will work just dandy. Thanks

Have used these hole saws in various sizes and they work great.I don’t know if they are designed to run in hammer drills or not, but that is how I use them.Run it somewhat slow and they do wonders.

7/8″ carbide hole saw cut through my stucco wall with exact size for 3/4″ diameter pipe and looks like professional work. Used lite streem of water to cool when cutting to extend bitt life. Just don’t understand why this item isn’t stocked in my local Home Depot stores. Seems most common sizes would be 5/8″ 7/8″ and 1 1/4″.

If the pilot bit was carbide tipped like the hole saw, I would give this combo a 5. But as soon as I drilled deep enough into the tile I was cutting for the hole saw to bite, the job was done in seconds. It’s a very good, quick working hole saw.

I used this to cut through 3 inches on concrete for some conduit. I used water to try and keep it cool. I had to dig out the concrete from the saw so I could get through the concrete.

The saw bit worked well. Went through the brick wall easily. Happy with the purchase.

This was used to “drill” a hole in 1 1/2″ thick hard stucco, backed by heavy wire mesh. It left a nice clean hole and cut much better than I had anticipated.

I purchased this to make holes in a concrete basement wall to install a port for water line. It fit my standard Ridgid arbor just fine which made it even more economical. It really cut good using a 3/8″ cordless drill. The only question lingering in my mind is “why did they put a wood cutting bit in a carbide-grit hole saw?” I changed it to a 1/4″ masonry bit which is much more appropriate for material where a carbide grit saw would be needed!

I used this tool to cut through wood and concrete, it worked great.

I’ve used other masonary hole bits that did not do nearly as well, this one is built with good, thick steel and heavy carbide on the cutting edges. Goes through concrete well, some of the rocks not so good 🙂 .

Great price- much better than competition. Worked very well. Only four stars because I can’t rate the durability from my experience.I used the bit for one project- to cut through dense laboratory tabletop material (very hard, with sand in it). It cut through 1 inch thickness in about a minute, using only a small cordlless drill, low speed and no coolant. I was enlarging a hole so I couldn’t use a pilot bit. I was able to start the cut without a pilot drill bit, by starting with light pressure at an angle to the surface. This was easier than I expected. Once I got it started, I could gradually tilt the saw up to vertical and increase pressure. It was stable and self guided after that.

Worked like a charm to cut holes through tile and green board to install grab bars in a shower. Be sure to use a punch to divot the tile first so the bit doesn’t slide.

It cut through 3″ of pool concrete deck easily.

This bit cut through almost 8 in of gunite total between my main pool area and the spa until I hit rebar it still has some life to it but it did its job. Worth the money
