Built under the Diablo product line, this saw features a variable tooth design that reduces vibration while increasing cut speed. The 2.375-inch cutting depth allows users to bore through thick stock in a single pass, reducing the need for repositioning or multiple operations. The tool-free plug ejection system speeds up material removal between cuts. A Snap Lock system enables fast, no-downtime arbor changes. Licensed trades and experienced contractors will find this saw suited for structural, mechanical, and rough-in work where large-diameter bores are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DHS5500 is rated for use in wood and metal materials, making it applicable across HVAC ductwork rough-ins, plumbing penetrations, and electrical box installations where a 5.5-inch bore is required. The Snap Lock mandrel system is compatible with all Diablo hole saws ranging from 0.625 inches to 6 inches in diameter, allowing a single arbor to serve an entire set. Note that the mandrel and pilot bit are sold separately and must be sourced independently for operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5.5-inch diameter cutting capacity for large-bore applications in wood and metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.375-inch cutting depth allows single-pass boring through thick material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable tooth design reduces vibration and improves cut speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTool-free plug ejection for fast, uninterrupted material removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSnap Lock system enables quick arbor changes with no downtime\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with all Diablo Snap Lock mandrels sized for 0.625-inch to 6-inch hole saws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DHS5500 is compatible with all Diablo Snap Lock mandrels designed for hole saws ranging from 0.625 inches to 6 inches in diameter.

Ensure the drill or hole saw is properly secured in the chuck before starting a cut, and wear appropriate eye and hearing protection. When boring into metal, use a suitable cutting fluid or lubricant to extend tooth life and reduce heat buildup. Disconnect or de-energize any circuits before boring through walls or panels to avoid contact with hidden wiring or piping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wood, Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMandrel Compatibility Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches to 6 inches diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9.75 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\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: DHS5500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DIABLO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51559385301298,"sku":"DHS5500","price":174.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8d7c9ebab5756bd7a8e73d830e3e70a7.jpg?v=1786430797","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/freud-dhs5500-hole-saw-5-5-in-wood-metal-cutting","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
