A hole saw includes a substantially cylindrical body defining a cutting end and an axis of rotation. The hole saw also includes first and second apertures formed through the body and spaced from the cutting end such that a portion of the body extends between the cutting end and both the first and second apertures. The first and second apertures are both configured to receive a tool for removing work piece plugs from within the cylindrical body. The first aperture is axially spaced from the cutting end a first distance. The second aperture is axially spaced from the cutting end a second distance that is greater than the first distance. The first aperture and the second aperture are separated by a portion of the body.

Hole saw

A hole saw including a cylindrical body with an outer wall extending along an axis of rotation from a cap end to a cutting end. The cutting end includes a plurality of cutting teeth disposed continuously around a circumference of the cutting end. The hole saw includes at least one elongated aperture disposed along the outer wall of the cylindrical body that is configured to receive a tool for removing one or more plugs from within the cylindrical body. The at least one elongated aperture has a first slot portion disposed adjacent to the cutting end and substantially parallel to the cap end, a second slot portion connected to the first slot portion at a first end of the second slot portion, and a third slot portion coupled to the second slot portion at a second end of the second slot portion opposite the first end.

A hole saw includes a cylindrical body disposed along an axis of rotation with a side wall extending axially from a cap end to a cutting end. The cutting end includes a plurality of cutting teeth. The hole saw also includes a cap coupled to the cap end of the cylindrical body. The side wall defines an elongated aperture configured to receive a tool for removing work piece plugs from within the cylindrical body. The elongated aperture has a first slot portion adjacent the cutting edge. The first slot portion is oriented perpendicular to the axis of rotation. The elongated aperture also has a second slot portion connected to the first slot portion and extending from the first slot portion toward the cap end. The second slot portion is oriented at an oblique angle relative to the axis of rotation.

A hole saw includes a cylindrical body disposed along an axis of rotation with a side wall extending axially from a cap end to a cutting end. The cutting end includes a plurality of cutting teeth. A cap includes a rim portion seated on the cap end and an axially extending portion extending into the cylindrical body from the cap end. The side wall defines an aperture including a first slot portion and a second slot portion disposed closer to the cap end than the first slot portion. A wall of the second slot portion nearest the cap end is between approximately 0.010 inches and approximately 0.120 inches axially offset from the axially extending portion of the cap.

A security assembly for a hole saw having a body and cap includes a generally cylindrical body configured to fit within a cavity of the hole saw. The cylindrical body includes a side wall portion and a base portion coupled to the side wall portion. The security assembly also includes a security tag housing coupled to the base portion. Tthe security tag housing defines a receptacle for housing a security tag.

Security device for a power tool accessory

A security assembly is configured for attachment to a hole saw having a cap defining a central mounting aperture. The security assembly includes a substantially cylindrical base portion having a central axis. A handle portion is coupled to the cylindrical base portion and defines a tag cavity for housing a security tag. An extension member extends opposite the handle portion from the base portion along the central axis. The extension member engages the central mounting aperture of the hole saw.
