Bosch HMD636RL 6-3/8 Inch Daredevil Recessed Lighting Hole Saw Carbide Tipped 10x Faster for Drywall Plaster

DOMINATE OVERHEAD INSTALLATIONS WITH 10X FASTER CUTTING SPEEDS

Revolutionize your recessed lighting installations with the Bosch HMD636RL 6-3/8 Inch Daredevil Hole Saw. Specifically designed for electricians and contractors, this high-performance cutter is engineered to be 10X faster than standard carbide grit hole saws. Featuring sharp, premium carbide teeth, it effortlessly chews through abrasive ceiling materials that typically dull ordinary blades. Whether you are cutting into drywall, plaster with wooden lath, plywood, acoustic ceiling tile, cement board, fiberglass, or MDF, this tool ensures a clean, circular cut every time.

The HMD636RL is built for efficiency and ease of use. Its deep gullets effectively clear dust and debris, preventing clogging during overhead drilling. The 1-1/4 inch cup depth is perfectly sized to cut through standard ceiling cross-sections without damaging wiring or joists hidden above. Sized at 6-3/8 inches, it provides the precise clearance needed for standard 6-inch recessed lighting cans (cans typically require a slightly larger hole than their nominal size). Stop struggling with manual keyhole saws or slow grit blades and upgrade to the speed and durability of Bosch Daredevil technology.

Pro-Tip: When cutting through old plaster and lath ceilings, run your drill in reverse for the first few seconds to score the plaster surface. This helps prevent the plaster from cracking or chipping outside the cut line. Once scored, switch to forward and apply steady pressure to cut through the wooden lath behind it.
