Milwaukee 1-3/16" Carbide Tipped Steel Plate Cutter 49-57-8217

PRECISION METAL PENETRATION FOR HIGH-VOLUME STEEL FABRICATION

Engineered for the mechanical demands of heavy-duty metal fabrication, the Milwaukee 1-3/16" Carbide Tipped Steel Plate Cutter delivers drill-press quality results in a handheld configuration. By utilizing high-grade carbide tips, this cutter maintains its edge significantly longer than standard high-speed steel or bi-metal alternatives, ensuring a lower cost-per-hole and higher operational efficiency. The specialized geometry is optimized for materials up to 3/8 inch thick, providing smooth, burr-free entry and exit while minimizing the torque feedback typically associated with large-diameter metal drilling. For maximum tool longevity and thermal management during deep cuts, integrating Hawg Wash® cutting fluid is essential to maintain the structural integrity of the carbide teeth.

• / Carbide-tipped teeth provide superior abrasion resistance and extended service life in stainless steel and thick plate.
• / Precision-ground flutes and tip geometry produce clean, accurate holes that require minimal secondary finishing.
• / Stainless steel quick-change shank allows for rapid tool-free transitions when paired with the 49-57-0035 arbor.
• / Optimized for handheld use in materials up to 3/8" thick, with a total cutting depth capacity of 1/2".
