Hole saw for wood, plastic and thin metal

The Baldwin AL-23SS05 is a 25 mm bi-metal hole saw with an included arbor and pilot drill bit. It cuts clean openings in wood, plywood, plastic, drywall, plaster and thin sheet metal. The set is designed for tradespeople and DIY users installing recessed lights, vent pipes or cable runs.

Low heat and vibration in hand drills

High-speed steel teeth reduce friction so the tool runs cool in a pistol drill, bench drill or drill press. The bi-metal construction resists wear and keeps cutting force low, which limits vibration and noise during normal use. A standard drill chuck is the only precondition.

25 mm cutting diameter with 31 mm depth

The saw cuts a precise 25 mm hole to a maximum depth of 1.25 inches. This single dimension decides whether the accessory matches the fixture or pipe you are fitting. Buyers needing a larger or smaller bore must choose a different size.

Questions about this item

How do I attach the AL-23SS05 hole saw to my drill chuck and what is the common alignment mistake?

Insert the arbor shank into the drill chuck and tighten securely. Rotate the hole saw onto the arbor until the locking pins align with the holes, then screw tight. The step often missed is ensuring the pins fully engage the holes before cutting.

Which part of the 1" HSS bi-metal hole saw will wear out first and need replacement?

The high-speed steel cutting teeth on the 25mm diameter saw will dull before the arbor or pilot drill bit. The bi-metal construction resists wear, but repeated cutting of metal or abrasive materials eventually reduces tooth sharpness.

What limits continuous cutting depth with the AL-23SS05 in thick material?

The maximum cutting depth is 1.25" (31mm). Once the hole saw reaches this depth, the cut core fills the cylinder and must be cleared before you can continue deeper.
