  • Best hole saw brand for drilling through mild, medium and hardened metal? Let's find out! Using a twist drill bit might not be the best option for large diameter holes. Why not use a bi-metal or carbide tooth hole saw? Hole saws compared for speed, accuracy of hole size, durability, and price. Brands tested: Diablo, Milwaukee Hole Dozer, MK Morse, Irwin, DeWalt 2x, Dewalt Impact Ready, DeWalt Carbide, Lenox, TCT Carbide, Milwaukee Shockwave, Drill Hog, and Bosch HB100. I bought all of the hole saws tested. No sponsors for free products from manufacturers.

Being a musician first and foremost, I quickly learned how to tap out the song Happy Birthday using a pencil, so when it was a cusomer's birthday, I could pay homage to their day on the hole saws. Then, I started learning Xmas songs. My boss finally had it when I learned Hava Nagila for our Jewish friends.

      @@julianpetkov8320 Agree with you, too hard feed on that old belt geared machine will chip off pieces of the carbide teeth every time it stalls. Im used to industrial stuff, drills with real gearboxes and coolant, i bet i could get at least 100 holes from that dewalt carbide. One can even feed them hard since there is no risk of stalling when in the lowest gears.

  • @komitadjie
    @komitadjie 3 года назад +65

    Just off the top of my head, I strongly suspect that the relatively poor rigidity of the drill press arrangement here without the mandrel might have significantly hurt the carbide-tipped saws. They're not good at all under loads that press off-axis and will tend to chip or fracture the carbide. I'd love to see those re-tested in a setup that does not allow so much side-slip! Perhaps a method for this could be pre-drilling a hole to guide it, and replacing the drill with a matched diameter piece of blank drill rod or something to guide in the pre-drilled hole.
    Great test, thanks, man! Fun to watch as always. :)

I've also wondered how much twisting the band actually reduces its strength. I'm guessing that in some of the cheaper brands, the strap could outlast the ratchet and the hooks!

The very second I find out that a reviewer profits from the product manufacturer or seller is the very second that I dismiss all sense of credibility and trust. Wranglerstar is an example of a youtuber that uses sponsorships to promote products. I asked RUclips to never recommend any of his videos for that reason. I don't hate him; I just don't trust sponsored reviews or any reviews where the reviewer is compensated by the seller or manufacturer.

I could not find the brand I wanted but I was able to get the Diablo saw at Homeless Depot. Thanks PF!!!! The saw made it thru the steel with a hand held drill in less than three minutes. I had to hold it in an awkward position with limited visibility. I backed off the RPM and pressed maybe 15-20 lbs weight on bit. I was thrilled and delighted that it cut a hole so easily.

    Amazing unbiased video!! If I’m looking to purchase tools this is the first place I go. It’s unfortunate consumer reports doesn’t take this approach anymore. If you ever branch out into testing appliances or anything else I would follow you in that as well, thank you!!

    I would love to see Starrett included in the saw tests. A Starrett salesman told me that most of their sales is saw blades (band saw, hacksaw, holesaw, etc).
    Also, please don't ever sell out.

      I agree, I have used many brands of hole saws but find that the Starrett is the best.

      Starrett blades are the worst I've ever used. Only harbor freight blades are worse. Metal and wood

    Project Farm I never even heard of Morse until now. Home Depot nor Lowe's carries that brand. Now I know of a cheap reliable brand name.

      They carry them at Menards, but that's more of a regional store.

      Jon Deiler Morse also makes very good band saw blades! Yes Menards, Amazon and some Milwaukee dealers.

      our company usually buys Morse hole saws, im sure they get them at a supply house. they seem to last pretty decently in the field

      Guess I got a bad kit. 25 piece hole saw kit, and they all sucked. Melted the teeth right off. They weren't even sharp enough to do anything but burn through wood right out of the case.
      I still have a Milwaukee Cold set (think they were some cryo treated weirdness) that keeps going and going. I'm sad they discontinued them, probably because they lasted too long.

    Here's another idea, multi-tool blades.
    I use my vibration saw (multi tool), to cut a lot of metal, screws, wood, etc. and I go through blades like crazy.
    It would be nice to know which ones are the strongest because they are quite expensive.
