Ideal Industries 36-355 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size hole does the IDEAL 36-355 Tri-Bore hole saw cut?
The IDEAL Tri-Bore carbide-tipped hole saw, model 36-355, cuts a 3-3/8 inch diameter hole. That is the common size for running larger conduit runs and recessed device openings through wood framing and panel materials.
2) Will a carbide-tipped hole saw cut through wood with nails in it?
Yes. The Tri-Bore 36-355 uses heavy carbide tips specifically so it can cut nail-embedded wood, along with cement board, composite enclosures and ceiling tile. That is the difference between it and a standard bi-metal saw, which dulls fast when it hits a fastener in old framing.
3) Should I use a Tri-Bore carbide hole saw or a self-feed bit for boring wood?
For clean wood with no fasteners, either will work, but IDEAL states the Tri-Bore cuts faster than self-feed bits in wood. The bigger reason to pick the carbide hole saw is mixed material: a self-feed bit stops dead on a nail, and this one is built to keep cutting through it.
4) Is a carbide-grit hole saw better than the Tri-Bore for abrasive materials like cement board?
IDEAL rates the Tri-Bore as faster than carbide grit saws in abrasive materials, and it lists cement board among what the carbide tips are made to cut. Grit saws have no teeth and rely on abrasion, which is slower through board products.
5) What part number do I order for the 3-3/8 inch IDEAL Tri-Bore hole saw?
Order IDEAL Industries part 36-355. That number covers the 3-3/8 inch Tri-Bore carbide-tipped hole saw, and it is the single size that number refers to, so there is no size suffix to specify.
6) Can I use the 36-355 hole saw on ceiling tile for can lights or speakers?
Ceiling tile is one of the materials IDEAL names for the Tri-Bore carbide tips, so the 3-3/8 inch 36-355 works for cutting openings in tile as well as in framing and composite enclosures.
