Diablo DHS2563 Bi-metal Hole Saw 2-9/16 in Diameter

Product Description

The DIABLO DHS2563 is a bi-metal hole saw designed for trade professionals who need fast, clean cuts in wood, metal, plastics, and composite materials. It features a 2-3/8 inch cutting depth, which delivers approximately 40 percent deeper holes in a single pass compared to standard hole saws. The saw uses a variable tooth design that reduces vibration and speeds up material removal. A tool-free plug ejection feature clears cut slugs without stopping work. Licensed electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors will find this saw suited to daily production drilling in both residential and light commercial applications.

The DHS2563 measures 2-9/16 inches in diameter, making it appropriate for conduit knockouts, pipe penetrations, electrical box openings, and similar through-hole work. It integrates with the Snap-Lock Plus mandrel system, enabling fast saw changes across an entire set without tools or downtime. The universal mandrel compatibility covers all Diablo hole saw sizes from 5/8 inches to 6 inches in diameter, so a single mandrel handles the full range of common trade hole sizes on the same job.

Installation Notes

Install the hole saw onto a compatible Snap-Lock Plus mandrel before attaching to the drill. Always disconnect power or lock out the drill before changing saw accessories. Use appropriate eye and hand protection when drilling, as bi-metal saws generate heat and metal chips at cutting speed. Follow applicable NEC or IPC guidelines when cutting through structural members or fire-rated assemblies.
