Starrett Tungsten Carbide Tipped Hole Saw - SM26 Sheet Metal Cutter With Arbor & Pilot Drill Bit - For Drilling Stainless Steel Aluminum Alloy - 26 mm

Bought for cutting a hole in 1mm thick stainless steel. Made light work of it. Very satified.

This hole saw worked extremely well in my bench drill to cut through 3mm stainless steel plate. The drill speed was set down to the specified range and liberal application of a cutting fluid used (Molyslip MWF)Obviously important to manage the feed rate to maintain cutting but not overheat the cutter12 holes cut with no problem. Highly recommended.

Boight this to cut holes in compact laminate worktop - worked beautifully, very neat hole and with a bit of masking tape to protect the surface no chipping or loss of edges. Have also drilled through formica laminate, 3mm stainless checker plate and marine ply - cuts well on everything. I've bought a couple of sizes now. Not that cheap but worth the money and I suspect will stay sharp for a good number of cuts.

The seller was able to actually check the product off the shelf for me, instead of checking a computer inventory, which seems is almost unheard of these days. Good price for product and delivery. Top seller.The product does a great job and cuts a hole very precisely, without wandering around at the start. I bought the last one to retro-fit roofrails to my Mini Clubman; since I was cutting holes in the car roof (!!!) I wanted something that could do the job reliably and with minimal potential for error. This type of tool is probably more suited for use on a proper stand drill with little or no side play; the teeth being WC are very hard and brittle and are not designed to take loading sideways. Having said that, I used it (carefully) with a hand-held cordless and had absolutely no problems. Top product. The only down point with this bit is they only sell them WITH arbour, but it actually does unscrew, so now I have three of these hole saws, each with an identical arbour, which obviously means it adds to the expense.

I used this to cut 32mm holes in my new steel barn. It cuts well and will last if you keep to low speed, plenty of lubricant and square to the surface. I managed to drill 6 holes in 1.6mm steel before the carbide tips broke from not keeping square to the steel surfaces when doing awkward almost blind holes. I also bought a 20mm bit which is much easier to handle and have cut 30 nice clean holes with carbide tips in good shape.

I used this on trunking lid ,even used cutting fluid to stop friction but the edges broke on first use ,total waste of money

The media could not be loaded.  Needed this drill to make 4 holes in double skinned steel external boiler door. Very pleased with it's performance. Hard to tell but I am pretty sure that after 8 cuts it's still got plenty of life in it. Never heard of the brand until now, will look out for them from here on.

Unfortunately not worth the money , first try on stainless made it 1mm depth and no more cut all blade chiped even while using cutting oil wouldn't recommend
