Lenox 30862638RL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a 6-3/8 inch hole saw cut the right opening for standard recessed can lights?
The Lenox Master Grit recessed lighting hole saw cuts a 6-3/8 inch diameter hole, which is the size called for by standard recessed lighting fixtures and electrical ceiling openings. Check the rough-opening dimension printed on your fixture or housing before cutting, since trim sizes vary by manufacturer and a 6-3/8 inch cut cannot be made smaller after the fact.
2) Can a carbide grit hole saw cut plaster and ceiling tile, or is it drywall only?
The hard tungsten carbide grit edge is meant for abrasive ceiling materials: drywall, plaster and ceiling tile. Grit cuts by abrading rather than with teeth, so it handles plaster and lath-era ceilings that chip or tear out toothed bi-metal saws. It is not a wood or metal saw.
3) Should I use a grit hole saw or a bi-metal hole saw for overhead recessed light cuts?
For ceiling work in drywall, plaster or acoustic tile, the grit edge is the one you want. Carbide grit holds its cutting edge in abrasive material where bi-metal teeth dull fast, and the continuous (toothless) edge cuts with less vibration and a cleaner hole edge, which matters when the trim ring has to sit flat. Bi-metal is the choice for wood framing and metal.
4) How does this hole saw keep drywall dust from falling on me when cutting a ceiling?
It uses a solid back rather than an open cup, so the plug and most of the dust stay captured inside the saw during the cut instead of raining down. On overhead work that keeps the line of sight clear and cuts cleanup in finished spaces. Clear the collected debris out of the back periodically on long runs of cuts.
5) Does the Lenox Master Grit 6-3/8 inch hole saw come with an arbor or mandrel?
The order is the saw itself, model 30862638RL. It mounts to a drill through an arbor, so you need a mandrel with a pilot drill sized to the saw's thread to run it. If you already own a large-diameter Lenox arbor, use that; otherwise add one to the order.
6) What does the Lenox 6-3/8 inch grit hole saw weigh and how big is the package?
Shipping specs are 2.91 lbs, with length and height at 8.2 inches and width 2.8 inches. Worth knowing for a large-diameter saw: at that weight and cut size you want a drill with decent torque and a side handle, not a light compact driver, especially working overhead.
7) Can I use this hole saw for ceiling fan boxes and HVAC duct penetrations, or just lights?
Beyond recessed cans, the same 6-3/8 inch cut suits ceiling fan box openings, electrical box placement and ductwork or ventilation penetrations through ceiling material. The limit is the material, not the application: keep it to abrasive ceiling materials like drywall, plaster and tile.
