American Saw Mfg Co LXAH99414CTPB Pilot Drill Bit 10pk

Product Description

The AMERICAN SAW MFG CO LXAH99414CTPB is a 4.25-inch hole saw pilot drill bit designed for use with standard hole saw arbor systems. It features a 3/8-inch shank and a quick-change groove that mates with both quick-change and traditional non-quick-change arbors. The high-speed steel construction handles drilling through wood and metal. This bit is sold in a pack of 10 units, making it a practical stock item for shops and service vehicles where pilot bits see regular turnover. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, and electrical contractors who routinely cut holes for penetrations and equipment mounting will find this a reliable consumable.

This pilot drill bit is suited for residential and light commercial trade applications where hole saws are used to cut through wood framing, sheet metal, and similar substrates. Common install scenarios include cutting pipe penetrations, conduit entry points, and access holes during mechanical, electrical, and plumbing rough-in work. The quick-change groove is compatible with Lenox SNAP-BACK quick-change arbors and standard non-quick-change arbors. It is not compatible with proprietary arbor systems that do not accept a standard 1/4-inch shank pilot drill.

Installation Notes

Install and replace pilot drill bits with the drill or driver powered off and the bit fully seated and secured in the arbor chuck before operation. Inspect the bit for wear or damage before each use and replace when the tip shows signs of dulling to maintain clean pilot holes and proper hole saw tracking. Applicable work should follow OSHA tool safety guidelines and any relevant NEC or IPC requirements for the penetration being made.
