Abstract:
A hole saw arbor includes an arbor body defining an axial rotation axis and has, at one end, a shank for mounting to a drill chuck, and at the other end, a hole saw receiving, axially directed, threaded shaft. The arbor includes a thrust member coaxially received by the arbor body such that the thrust member is movable in the direction of the rotation axis. The arbor further has at least one movable pin retained by the arbor body in the direction of the threaded shaft for engaging a corresponding hole in a bottom surface of the hole saw, to prevent rotation of the hole saw relative to the arbor body; and an adjustable locking member for locking the thrust member against the bottom surface of the hole saw. Thereby the hole saw, when engaged by the thrust member and the at least one pin, does not wobble off-axis. |
