Lenox 1772954 Bi-metal Hole Saw 2.5 in Metal Cutting

Product Description

The LENOX 1772954 is a bi-metal hole saw designed for cutting through metal in trade and industrial applications. With a 2.5-inch saw diameter and a 1.5625-inch cutting depth, this hole saw handles typical pipe and conduit knockout work where precision and durability matter. The bi-metal construction pairs a high-speed steel tooth edge with a flexible alloy steel body, resisting tooth stripout under load. A variable pitch tooth pattern reduces vibration and improves chip clearance during cuts. Licensed electricians, plumbers, and HVAC technicians reach for this tool when opening metal enclosures, panels, or pipe runs on the job.

This hole saw is suited for residential and light commercial work where metal cutting is required. It is compatible with 2-inch pipe size applications, making it a practical choice for conduit knockout, plumbing rough-in, and mechanical penetrations through metal studs, junction boxes, and sheet metal ductwork. The arbored design means it mounts to a standard arbor for use with a drill or drill press, keeping setup time short on busy job sites.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction for extended tooth life in metal cutting applications
• 2.5-inch saw diameter sized for 2-inch pipe compatibility
• 1.5625-inch cutting depth handles standard metal stock and enclosure walls
• Variable pitch tooth pattern reduces vibration and improves chip evacuation
• Toothed cutting edge delivers clean, consistent hole geometry
• Arbored design for quick mounting to standard hole saw arbors

Compatibility

Compatible with 2-inch pipe size applications. Designed for use with standard arbored hole saw mandrels on corded or cordless drills and drill presses. Intended for metal material applications.

Installation Notes

Hole saws of this type are installed by electricians, plumbers, and HVAC mechanics as part of rough-in and penetration work. Secure the workpiece before cutting and use appropriate eye and hand protection. Mount the saw firmly to a compatible arbor and verify the pilot bit is seated before starting. Cutting speed and feed pressure should be kept consistent to prevent tooth stripout in harder metals.
