Freud DHS5000 Hole Saw 5 Inches Wood Metal

Product Description

The FREUD DHS5000 is a 5-inch high-performance hole saw designed for faster cutting and increased productivity in both wood and metal applications. The saw features a variable tooth design that reduces vibration during cuts while maintaining aggressive material removal. Tool-free plug ejection clears the bore quickly without stopping work. The Snap Lock system allows for fast, no-downtime arbor changes on the job site. This hole saw is built for installation professionals, remodelers, and tradespeople who need repeatable, clean bores in a single pass.

The DHS5000 is suited for residential and light commercial work where technicians need to bore through wood framing, metal studs, sheet metal, or similar substrate materials. The 5-inch cutting diameter makes it a common choice for routing larger conduit, pipe, or duct penetrations through walls, floors, and ceilings. The hole saw design is optimized for maximum cutting depth so bores can be completed in one pass through standard framing and panel thicknesses. The Snap Lock mandrel system is compatible with all Diablo hole saws ranging from 5/8 inches to 6 inches in diameter. Note that the mandrel and pilot bit are sold separately.
