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

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've have this for 3 years and it still cuts good. Its Built well definitely recommend buying it you won't need another for awhile

The media could not be loaded. 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.

Cutting openings on sheetrock for different applications

Works pretty well. Made 12 holes in my kitchen and dining room without a problem. You might want to use cable drill though. Noticed that my battery operated drill didn't have enough power to run this.Also, using it with Silicone Dust Bowl from Blu-Mol makes a big difference as this bowl collects majority of the dust.

A must have for hard wall finishes. We have a level 5 finish on our walls. I discovered this when I was trying to cut a hole in the wall with my rotary bit and the wall cut the bit off. Grabbed my sawzaw and the wall ate the teeth off the blade. I ended up buying a plaster saw to cut through.Needless to say a regular hole saw wouldn't last a couple holes. This thing cuts right through with no wear or problems. Less dust than a traditional saw, and smoother cut.The customer support is excellent as well. I was missing a part in my order and they shipped a replacement immediately. Highly recommended.

This cut 6 holes through thick plaster smoother than wooden hole saws through drywall. Couldnt have cut easier with a standard milwaukee 18 volt drill (and didnt need a handle or sds like others mentioned). Anyone complaining about the torque must not use drills often. If you dont go full-trigger and just cut a slow and steady speed, you wont have any problems. Definitely use a dust shield with it, but was able to cut 6 holes in plaster in under 10 mins (including moving and climbing ladder time). Worth every cent!
