Klein Holemaking Line to Expand with Hole Saws, Step Bits and Wood Boring Bits
Klein has announced the expansion of the Klein holemaking line. The new products will include bi-metal hole saws, double-fluted step drill bits and wood boring bits. Combined with existing Klein holemaking line products, the additions provide a complete, high-performance solution for steel, wood, drywall, plastic, tile and other materials. For fast, superior cutting and longer-lasting tool performance, the updated Klein holemaking line is made of heavy-duty steel. The bi-metal hole saws, double-fluted step drill bits and wood boring bits can make hole cutting quicker, cleaner and more efficient.
“While out on job sites, we noticed the difficulties tradespeople were having cutting holes quickly and consistently in steel as well as other materials. With those observations in mind, we re-designed our holemaking products to deliver a faster, more reliable and accurate cutting performance making the job easier and more productive.”
– Dave Mueller, senior product manager at Klein Tools
Pro Tool Reviews Managing Editor, Kenny Koehler had this to say about the new Klein holemaking products:
“We all know how focused Klein Tools is on professional electricians. Taking that focus to improve on the power tool accessories tradesmen use often is an exciting step forward to see. I’m particularly anxious to the get the new Wood Boring Bits in my hands. Having a low-torque option where I would normally go for an auger bit is sure to help reduce fatigue and potential bind up injuries.”
