Ideal Industries 36-353 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size hole does the IDEAL 36-353 Tri-Bore hole saw cut?
The IDEAL Tri-Bore carbide-tipped hole saw, model 36-353, cuts a 2-9/16 inch diameter hole. That is the common size for running larger conduit and cable bundles through framing and panel walls.
2) Will a carbide-tipped hole saw get through wood with nails in it?
Yes. The Tri-Bore 36-353 uses heavy carbide tips built to cut nail-embedded wood, and the same tips handle cement board, composite enclosures and ceiling tile. That is the difference from a standard bi-metal saw, which dulls quickly the moment it hits a nail.
3) Should I use a self-feed bit or a carbide-tipped hole saw for rough-in boring?
For an electrician boring through mixed or abrasive material, the Tri-Bore 36-353 cuts faster than a self-feed bit in wood and faster than carbide grit saws in abrasive material. A self-feed bit is still a clean-wood tool; once there is nail, cement board or composite in the path, the carbide-tipped saw is the one that keeps cutting.
4) Can the IDEAL 36-353 hole saw cut ceiling tile and cement board for low-voltage and fixture openings?
Yes. Ceiling tile and cement board are both named cutting materials for the Tri-Bore carbide-tipped saw, along with composite enclosures. At 2-9/16 inches it makes an opening sized for larger raceway and cable pass-through work.
5) What part number do I order for the 2-9/16 inch IDEAL Tri-Bore hole saw?
Order IDEAL Industries 36-353. That number is the 2-9/16 inch diameter in the Tri-Bore carbide-tipped line, and diameter is the only thing that changes across the series, so the part number is what pins down the cut size.
