Pilot bits center the hole saw before cutting begins, preventing walk and improving cut accuracy in wood, plastic, and light metals. This bit features a hex shank for secure tool-free bit changes on compatible arbors. It is a consumable component that wears with use and is sold in a package of 5, giving tradespeople and installers a ready supply for ongoing work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pilot bit is suited for residential and light commercial installation work where Freud Diablo hole saw arbors are in regular use. Typical applications include electrical rough-in, plumbing penetrations, and HVAC duct and cabinet work where repeated hole saw use demands periodic pilot bit replacement. Having spares on hand reduces downtime during production drilling tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh Speed Steel construction for durability across repeated drilling cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch hex shank for fast, secure seating in compatible Diablo arbors\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReplacement-grade design — intended as a consumable for regular swap-out\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a 5-pack to keep spares available on the job\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenters hole saw on target to reduce bit walk and improve cut accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a replacement hex shank pilot bit for use with Freud Diablo hole saw arbors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by tradespeople using compatible Freud Diablo hole saw arbors. Ensure the arbor is removed from the drill or driver before swapping the pilot bit. Seat the hex shank fully into the arbor collet and confirm it is locked before resuming drilling. Replace the pilot bit when tip wear causes centering loss or reduces penetration performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.35 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: FREUD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: DHS4BITII\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DIABLO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51557434556722,"sku":"DHS4BITII","price":37.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fa9cd770b2d17f472659726d840275ec.jpg?v=1786388016","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/freud-dhs4bitii-hss-pilot-bit-1-4-inch-hex-shank","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
