How To Drill a hole Through A Stainless Steel Sink 

Just want to say, I followed this video 100%, used the same bit with only a brushed 20v drill/screw gun. It literally cut through in 30 seconds! Thanks bro!!

Awesome share homie. I did not know Dawn dish soap could be used in place of cutting lube or 3-in-1 oil! I'm so glad because that'll make clean up MUCH easier than using messy oils. Thanks again! Post-project edit: it worked like a beautiful charm, thank you so much!

Best most accurate way to cut a sink hole. Thank you!!!

I just drilled a third hole through a very thick 3/16" (5mm) Kraus stainless steel sink. I used a tungsten carbide tipped hole saw in a 12v Bosch drill/driver. Used water for cooling. Took a little effort but it drilled out cleanly. To remove any burrs I used an 8" half round 'basterd cut' (fine) file. Thought I was going to have to go over it with sandpaper, but it's smooth enough. I used a 1-3/8" (35mm) hole saw. Hope this helps. It answers the questions I had and it worked well.

Worked perfect. Saved $50 over a step down bit too! Thank you

I did this today. Similar bit and Dawn dishwashing soap ... super-fast, one brief jam and done in under a minute. Thank you!

Had trouble with lube not cutting, used soap done in less than two minutes Thanks

This video should have millions of views!!!

That bit was impressive. That looks to be faster in stainless than a step bit.

Bro this is gonna save me some dough ! We have these weird one hole bar sinks at work that require a very expensive faucet , with this method I’ll be able to install a 2 hole bar faucet which is more common !

Nice job. Hopefully i can do the same on a new sink. I need an extra hole.

thanks! now i'm more confident doing it on my sink

you did great overall but your speed was entirely to high slow it down and it wiil cut faster!

very helpful thank you jon

Thx U sir. I have similar project this weekend. 👍

Sweeeeeeeeet man thank you for sharing I need to do this asap.

Thanks for making this video! I plan to buy the same bit, but I have the cheaper corded Ryobi drill. Will that be OK? Will definitely follow the soap idea (was thinking it'll help lessen the amount of scrap flying out)!

Dude impressive!

Nice job 👍

Thanks, now I know how to make mine.

Hi I’m a women and I have not clue how to do that. What the name of the hole maker and price please? To have any idea. Thanks for sharing 😊

items needed- cheap hole saw & 1 bottle of soap

Let me just wipe all these metal shards and liquid soap into the hole lol

Thank for your video

Awesome tip✌️

Fabulous! Ty

Did you use a regular drill?

can you tell me what type of drill I need to use this bit? I'm a girl, I don't have extensive tools but I'm pretty handy at DIY stuff. I'm trying to install a reverse osmosis water system

Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Way to go

Good job.

perfect, thank you ;

What gauge stainless steel was the sink? 22 gauge?

Great tip. But, try not to use a hammer drill for the hole saw could be knocked off disengaging the drill bit although the product is labeled as impact ready.

Great Video it safe me $$ Thansk!

You can use oil (like coconut oil) which has way better properties to prevent smoking and heat haha

What is that drill bit called

Dealing bit name please

Did that drill make a hole in the sink and counter that’s underneath it?

This works

No, thank YOU! :)

You did a good job, but your physics for using the soap is pretty flawed... Either way you got the job done so I guess it doesn't matter.

Soap was a dumb idea , use WD40
