Popular Stanley Products

Stanley's arbor range includes standard length options ideal for general purpose drilling in wood, plastic and thin metals. For deeper cutting applications, their extended arbors provide the extra reach needed when working with thicker materials or multiple layers. The quick-change arbor systems are particularly popular with electricians and plumbers who need to switch between holesaw sizes frequently throughout the day.

Replacement pilot drills are available individually, allowing you to maintain peak performance without replacing the entire arbor assembly. Stanley's pilot bits feature sharp, self-centring tips that ensure accurate hole positioning before the holesaw teeth engage the material.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will Stanley arbors fit my existing holesaws?

Stanley arbors typically feature standard thread sizes (such as 1/2" - 20 UNF) that fit most professional holesaws. However, always check the thread specification of your existing holesaws to ensure compatibility before purchasing.

How do I maintain my Stanley arbor for optimal performance?

Clean debris from threads after each use, apply a light coating of oil to prevent rust, and regularly check that the pilot drill remains sharp and secure. Replace worn pilot bits promptly to maintain accurate centring.

What's the difference between quick-change and standard arbors?

Quick-change arbors allow tool-free holesaw swapping, saving valuable time on site when using multiple sizes. Standard arbors require a hex key to change holesaws but typically offer more robust clamping for heavy-duty applications.
