Milwaukee 49-56-0062 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What sizes does the Milwaukee HOLE DOZER bi-metal hole saw come in?
Thirteen diameters, from 1-1/4 inch up to 5-1/2 inch: 1-1/4 (49-56-0062), 1-3/8 (49-56-0072), 1-1/2 (49-56-0082), 1-3/4 (49-56-0102), 2-1/4 (49-56-0132), 2-1/2 (49-56-0147), 2-3/4 (49-56-0163), 3-1/4 (49-56-0183), 3-1/2 (49-56-0193), 3-3/4 (49-56-0203), 4-1/4 (49-56-0223), 4-3/4 (49-56-0237) and 5-1/2 inch (49-56-0247). Each diameter is its own Milwaukee part number, so order by the number that matches the hole you need.
2) Which HOLE DOZER size do I need for 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch EMT conduit entry holes?
For conduit knockout work, pick the diameter that matches the fitting, not the trade size of the pipe. A 1/2 inch EMT connector wants a 7/8 inch hole and a 3/4 inch connector wants a 1-1/8 inch hole, and neither of those diameters is offered in the HOLE DOZER sizes stocked here, which start at 1-1/4 inch. The 1-1/4 inch (49-56-0062) suits a 1 inch conduit knockout, 1-3/4 inch (49-56-0102) suits 1-1/4 inch conduit, and 2-1/4 inch (49-56-0132) suits 2 inch conduit.
3) Does a Milwaukee HOLE DOZER hole saw come with an arbor and pilot bit?
No. These are sold as bare hole saw cups only, by diameter. You need a separate hole saw arbor with a pilot drill to run them. Sizes from 1-1/4 inch up take a large arbor thread, so confirm the arbor you already own covers the diameter you are ordering before you get to the jobsite.
4) Will a bi-metal HOLE DOZER cut through metal studs and electrical enclosures, or only wood?
It handles both. The bi-metal build pairs a flexible steel backing with hardened teeth, so it cuts wood, plastic and thin-gauge metal, which covers metal stud webs, steel panel boxes and enclosure fabrication as well as framing and cabinetry. For thick plate or masonry, this is the wrong tool.
5) Bi-metal or carbide hole saw for a mixed-material remodel?
Bi-metal, like the HOLE DOZER, is the general-purpose choice when one hole saw has to go through wood, plastic and thin-gauge metal on the same job, and the flexible backing resists snapping the way a carbon-steel cup does. Carbide-tipped hole saws are the ones to reach for in abrasive material such as cement board, plaster with lath, or cast iron, where bi-metal teeth dull fast.
6) I need a 2 inch PVC drain pass-through. Which hole saw size?
Go up from the pipe OD, not the nominal size. 2 inch Schedule 40 PVC measures about 2-3/8 inch outside diameter, so the 2-1/2 inch cup (49-56-0163 is 2-3/4 inch, 49-56-0147 is 2-1/2 inch) gives clearance. For 3 inch PVC at roughly 3-1/2 inch OD, step to the 3-3/4 inch (49-56-0203).
7) Can I buy a single replacement HOLE DOZER cup to refill a hole saw kit?
Yes. Each diameter is ordered individually by its Milwaukee part number, so if the 2-1/4 inch in your kit is worn out you replace just that one with 49-56-0132 rather than buying a whole new set. The same applies across all thirteen sizes from 1-1/4 to 5-1/2 inch.
