FAQs
What size holesaws does this arbor fit?
This LENOX arbor is designed for LENOX holesaws in the 9A-19A series, which range in size from 14.3mm to 30.2mm.
What type of drill chuck is required?
The arbor features a hex shank and requires a drill chuck that can securely grip a 9.5mm (3/8in) or larger shank.
Is the pilot drill replaceable?
While the pilot drill is integrated, if it becomes damaged or excessively worn, replacement is typically done by replacing the entire arbor assembly.
Can this arbor be used with holesaws from other brands?
This arbor is specifically designed for LENOX 9A-19A series holesaws. Using it with other brands may result in a poor fit or compromised performance.
How do I ensure the holesaw is mounted correctly?
Align the holesaw's drive holes with the threaded portion of the arbor and tighten securely using an appropriate wrench. Ensure there is no play between the holesaw and the arbor.
What is the benefit of the split-point pilot drill?
The split-point design allows the drill to start on contact, penetrate faster, and significantly reduces the tendency for the bit to 'walk' or wander across the material surface, improving accuracy.
Troubleshooting
Holesaw does not attach securely to the arbor.
Ensure you are using a compatible LENOX holesaw (9A-19A series) within the specified size range. Check for any debris or damage on the threaded portion of the arbor or the holesaw. Tighten firmly with the appropriate wrench.
Pilot drill is not penetrating the material effectively or is walking.
Verify that the pilot drill tip is sharp and free from damage. Ensure the material surface is stable and that you are applying steady, consistent pressure. For very hard materials, consider pre-drilling a small pilot hole if necessary.
Arbor shank spins in the drill chuck.
Confirm that your drill chuck can accept a 9.5mm (3/8in) or larger shank. Ensure the drill chuck is tightened firmly around the hex shank of the arbor. Check the drill chuck itself for any wear or damage.
