Sutton H127 64mm TCT Multi-Purpose Holesaw

The Sutton H127 is the multi-purpose holesaw series in the Sutton range, and this 64mm size carries the tungsten carbide tipped teeth that give the series its TCT name. It is built for machine or hand drilling in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, plastic and wood, and it cuts to a 32mm depth. The body is bi-metal cobalt HSS for toughness and longer life, and the carbide tips take the load on the cutting edge.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a 64mm holesaw used for?

A 64mm holesaw suits pipe and duct penetrations that need a hole just over 2 and a half inches, including 50mm pipe entries, exhaust vents and cable runs. It is a size plumbers and roof plumbers reach for when running pipe through floors and walls.

Can a hand drill drive a 64mm TCT saw?

It can, in timber and thin sheet, if the drill has torque and you feed steadily. For steel plate or a run of holes, a pillar drill or a low-speed drill is the better tool. Keep the pilot sharp and the arbor tight and let the saw cut at its own pace.

Why are the teeth carbide tipped on a multi-purpose saw?

Because a multi-purpose saw is expected to cut across steel, stainless, timber, plastic and the abrasive materials in between. Tungsten carbide tips hold an edge far longer across that mix than a plain steel tooth, so the saw stays sharp for a much longer working life.

Does this size work for roof ventilation?

Yes. A 64mm hole is a common size for roof vent and exhaust fittings that sit in the 60 to 65mm range. The TCT teeth cut the roof sheeting cleanly, and the 32mm depth covers single skin metal panels and most roof cladding.
