Milwaukee 1-1/2" Carbide Tipped Steel Plate Cutter 49-57-8227

ENGINEERED FOR PRECISION IN THICK PLATE STEEL

When boring through heavy-gauge metal, standard bi-metal hole saws often fall short on both speed and durability. The Milwaukee 49-57-8227 Carbide Tipped Steel Plate Cutter is a specialized solution designed to deliver drill-press-quality holes even in handheld operations. By utilizing high-grade carbide tips, this cutter maintains its structural integrity and sharpness far longer than high-speed steel, providing a significantly better ROI for professionals frequently working with stainless steel and thick plate. For optimal performance in materials exceeding 1/4-inch, integrating Hawg Wash® cutting fluid ensures the carbide remains cool, preventing the thermal fracturing that often plagues lesser accessories during high-torque applications.

• / Carbide-tipped teeth provide extreme durability and outlast bi-metal alternatives in abrasive metal-cutting applications.
• / Precision-ground geometry allows for clean, burr-free holes in materials up to 3/8-inch thick during handheld use.
• / 1/2-inch cutting depth capacity offers the versatility needed for heavy-duty structural steel and plate fabrication.
• / Optimized for use with the 49-57-0035 quick-change arbor to maximize jobsite efficiency and reduce downtime between bit swaps.
