Versatile hole cutter set for metalwork

The Ideal 36-311 kit contains three carbide-tipped hole cutters sized 7/8 in, 1-1/8 in and 1-3/8 in. They are designed for cutting sheet metal and stainless steel up to a maximum depth of 1/4 in. A built-in arbor and a 3/8 in pilot drill are included, making the set ready for immediate use on compatible materials.

Carbide tips and built-in arbor simplify operation

Carbide-tipped teeth with 5/6/7 tooth counts stay sharp longer than standard steel when cutting stainless steel. The integrated arbor removes the need for a separate mandrel, reducing setup time and the number of loose components. The 3/8 in shank fits directly into standard drill chucks without an adapter.

Straightforward installation with standard drills

Insert the 3/8 in shank into any drill chuck rated for that size and tighten securely. The pilot drill centres the cutter automatically, so no separate centre punch is required. Because the set is not impact rated, it must be used with rotary drilling only; hammer or impact modes will damage the carbide teeth and void the tool's intended function.

Questions about this item

How often will the carbide tips on these three cutters need replacing when cutting sheet metal?

The carbide tips are built to last through many holes in sheet metal and stainless steel; replace a cutter only when the teeth no longer bite cleanly.

What stops the 3/8 in shank from slipping in a drill chuck during prolonged use?

The 3/8 in shank fits standard drill chucks; keep the chuck tight and the 3/8 in pilot drill sharp so the cutter stays centred under load.

How hot do the cutters get when making repeated holes in stainless steel?

Carbide tips dissipate heat well, but pause occasionally and use cutting oil to keep the tool and workpiece from overheating.
