6-3/8 Hole Saw for 6" Recessed Lights, Carbide Grit Holes Saw Cutting Plaster Drywall Ceiling Sheetrock, Green

Great hole saw for installing flush mount LED can lights. Not much to say besides it works great.

This is the best hole saw i have ever used. Was able to easily cut 5 holes, through 2 layers of a plaster ceiling with a third layer being drywall. The saw still looks and cuts like new.

We used this to cut 20 holes for 6" LED clip in low profile recessed lights. Worked great. Started to get a little dull by the end of our project but still worked great. Made it so easy to cut it was worth every penny! We paired it with the dust collection cup and it made the project almost dust free!

I started my project using a regular hole saw with teeth and destroyed the hole because the teeth would bind. Not to mention twisting my wrist a few times. These grit-based hole saws are the best hands down for putting in recessed lighting. I used both the 6- and 4-inch size to put in over 30 recessed lights in my renovation. They work perfectly for clean edges and with substantially less binding than other hole saws. They also reduce the amount of dust to a degree because they have grit and not teeth throwing the dust around. If you want a clean installation, buy these. The cost for the right tool for a quality result is well worth it.

I cut 8 holes for lights, with more to come. The saw sped up the process noticeably and with absolutely cleaner cuts. The downside is the dust generated. You absolutely have to use the dust bowl with this. I didn't, and got dust everywhere (see video). Spend the $16 extra and save yourself a headache. I also tried the "run it in reverse" tip, and it kept unscrewing from my drill, so I went to forward. Something to look out for if you try that. Otherwise, this thing is a beast!!

I've been in contracting for 30 years and I admit I was skeptical on purchasing this. Completely happy I did. Cut 18 holes in very old plaster and lath. All perfect reguardless of it being on or off a joist. Just make sure you have a firm grip. If the lath or joist happens to bind the blade, a good drill will try to pull your arm off. Not the hole saws fault.

So far so good. Does as described.
