It features a 2-5\/8 inch saw diameter and a 1-5\/8 inch cutting depth, making it well suited for tasks that demand a durable cutting edge beyond what standard bi-metal saws can deliver. The toothed cutting edge follows a constant pitch pattern, which promotes consistent chip removal and steady cutting action. Licensed tradespeople and experienced installers rely on this saw when working with materials that accelerate wear on conventional tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hole saw is intended for use on fiberglass, Formica, masonry brick, MDF, plaster, and suspended flooring applications. It is a practical choice for HVAC, plumbing, and electrical rough-in work where penetrations through wall panels, ceiling tiles, or composite board materials are required. The 2-5\/8 inch diameter suits common conduit, pipe, and recessed-fixture cutouts encountered in both residential and light commercial installations. This saw is sold individually and does not include an arbor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarbide-tipped teeth for extended service life in abrasive and hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-5\/8 inch cutting diameter for standard pipe, conduit, and fixture openings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-5\/8 inch cutting depth handles typical panel and wall assembly thicknesses\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConstant pitch tooth pattern supports smooth, consistent cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for fiberglass, Formica, masonry brick, MDF, plaster, and suspended floor materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-arbored design — requires a separate compatible arbor for use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with abrasive and composite building materials including fiberglass, Formica, masonry brick, MDF, plaster, and suspended flooring.

Use a variable-speed drill or drill press and reduce speed when cutting masonry or dense composite materials to prevent premature carbide wear. Secure the workpiece firmly before cutting and use appropriate eye and respiratory protection, particularly when cutting fiberglass or MDF, which produce fine particulate. Follow applicable trade and jobsite safety guidelines for tool operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSaw Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSaw Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbide Tipped\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Toothed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Constant\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArbored\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fiberglass, Formica, Masonry Brick, MDF, Plaster, Suspended Floor\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: STARRETT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 65629\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540524106034,"sku":"65629","price":54.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9034cd6b7091bfc273ddf321e8396cd0.jpg?v=1785857456","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-65629-hole-saw-2-5-8-in-carbide-tipped","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
