In household and construction work, it is sometimes necessary to make a round hole in metal or wood. However, a regular drill bit is not enough. One of the most popular solutions in this case is a ring saw.
What is a bimetal ring saw?
A bimetal ring saw is one of the items in the household goods category. This tool allows you to cut metal and other materials efficiently and evenly. The saw cuts the material in a circle, leaving the central part intact (it can be easily removed later). In general, it is the ideal tool for creating neat round holes.
What materials can bimetal ring saws be used on?
- Metal;
- Wood;
- Plywood;
- chipboard;
- plastic;
- plasterboard (sometimes).
Due to its wide range of materials, this saw is often considered a universal tool. However, it is not designed for concrete, stone, porcelain stoneware, and tiles.
What are the areas of application for ring saws:
- repair;
- construction;
- metalworking;
- electrical installation;
- ventilation and air conditioning;
- plumbing;
- locksmith work;
- furniture manufacturing;
- automotive and garage work;
- equipment installation;
- household work.
Bimetal ring saws are a reliable tool for professional and domestic work. They are attached as attachments to a drill or screwdriver (screwdriver).
Advantages of buying a ring saw:
- speed of work;
- sharpness;
- strength;
- durability;
- large hole diameter;
- good service life;
- reduced load on the tool;
- accuracy;
- heat resistance;
- cleanliness and accuracy (side holes remove chips).
The tool's service life will be even longer if you use low speeds and lubricant.
Examples of tasks for which it is worth buying a bimetal ring saw:
- drilling holes for sockets, pipes, fasteners, locks;
- creating holes for ventilation and communications;
- installation work on metal and wood;
- forming passages for corrugations, cables, pipes, hoses;

Bimetal circular saws are effective due to the combination of two metals – spring steel for the base and high-speed steel (HSS) for the teeth. In other words, bimetal means strength plus sharp teeth.
Types of bimetal circular saws
What types of saws are the most popular and what are they used for:
- for metal – for precise and fast cutting of metal pipes and profiles;
- universal – suitable for metal and wood, one tool for many tasks;
- for wood/plastic – quickly cut through wood, plywood and chipboard, but are more difficult to control when cutting metal;
- saws with different thicknesses and teeth — for rough and fine work, for various materials.
To have different types of ring saws, you can purchase a complete set. It includes many diameters at once, and often comes with a holder and a centring drill bit.
All types of saws are not inserted directly into the drill, but are screwed onto a holder or adapter.
