The Milwaukee carbide 12 piece hole set exceeded expectations. It cut hole in wood like a hot knife through butter and efficiently/quickly correct holes through metals.

A very high quality hole saw set when compared to previous options in my shop. Everything about this set is much better than economy sets. The drill bits are very good quality and the hole cutters are heavy duty and lock in place for use. Sizes in my 13-piece set vary from 7/8″ to 2 1/2″. My only use so far has been in wood and this set quickly cuts a smooth hole/plug. Even the plug might be useful in some craft projects. The plug was easily removed especially after the drill bit is removed. I was initially concerned about a couple of the sizes since it appeared that the teeth did not line up where the metal was joined. But in use I had no problem and it did not appear to affect the quality of the cut. The fact that these can handle many different materials adds to their versatility. Overall a nice addition to my tool collection.

The Milwaukee Dozer Carbide 13-Piece Hole Saw Set is a nice kit. I could have really used it about 2 days before it arrived. That only proves that Murphy is alive and well. The case is nice. Two different arbors were included, one for smaller hole saws and one for the larger sizes where they are held by pins. There were spare drills included for the arbors. The sizes on the sides of the individual hole saws were hard to read so I took an ultra fine permanent marker and went over the indented size numbers and that helped. I only did the inch sizes and may do the millimeter sizes if needed. The following sizes were included, inches – (mm): 7/8 – (22), 1 – (25), 1-1/8 – (29), 1-3/8 – (35), 1-3/4 – (44), 2 – (51), 2-1/4 – (57), and 2-1/2 – (64). All in all, a very nice hole saw kit.

Had to cut two 1” holes in 3/16” steel. Used cutting oil. The second hole went as easily as the first and I can tell it would’ve cut more holes no problem. Don’t know how many holes I could’ve done before failure, but I can say I doubt a bi-metal hole saw would’ve gotten through even one hole.

Awesome

These saws are beasts—getting through a stud up high where I’d expect to hit a nail from the top plate is not a problem with these carbide-tipped saws since they will go right through. I hear it and it slows down a bit, but it’s drilling through big nails! These drill fast and true, and the only hiccup I hit was going through water-logged plywood on a cabinet base. The material was soggy and sloppy, and the hole saw made it through, but it was messy with ply strands in the way of getting it back out. I got it out and just used my Sawzall to cut off the soggy stuff and get it out of there so there’s no risk of mold growing. Can they cut through stainless? Absolutely. I got through a restaurant stainless table fixture with ease; just kept the hole and saw oiled since I want a lot of life out of these saws. The warranty is awesome since it’s Milwaukee, but there’s no reason to work poorly and have down time waiting for bits to be replaced.The case is perfect. Every manufacturer should look to Milwaukee as the gold-standard for cases—they put foam in the lid to keep the hole saws in place and the tiny allen wrench right where it should be. Since this is the standard Milwaukee hole saw case, there is room for extra hole saws as my collection grows. Extra pilot bits are included, and both the small and the large arbors are included. Are these hole saws perfect? I would say they are. I have not tried them on heavy steel, as I don’t encounter big I-beams in my work, but everything else I’ve used them on has been fast and clean. These are a significant upgrade to my tool set.

This is the first set of high-quality holesaw‘s that I’ve ever owned, my previous versions were cheap knock offs that came from the freight store.The plastic box is super well-made with a great handle and case for easy storage. I like that it comes with two different size of pilot bit housings to accommodate the smaller and larger hole saws and especially the larger one for fitting into my larger electric drill.I mainly use these four finished holes into countertops for cabling grommets and finished wood for the same. The saws don’t tear up the word too terribly bad (if taped) and make for a nice clean hole into finished woodwork. They seem to cut through harder woods like Maple and Oak fairly easily. Very happy with the overall quality and the quality of cuts that I’m getting from the saws.

Being a do it yourself’er you just never know when your going to need to cut a hole in wood, wallboard or some other material. So go these to while doing a project. As you can see my the picture plenty of sizes. The largest bit fit on my small hand held drill with no problem. Each hole saw comes with a drill bit and set into your drill head. Learned through a couple of practice holes the best way is slow and easy. Great set for the DIY’er.

Gets the job done well done

Dozer carbide is the way to go. The carbide teeth plow through almost anything and they seem to last longer than other brands. This 8 piece set is the most common for regular use like door knobs and locks. We cut a lot of holes in some 2 x12s for ropes at the river for a walkway project and the hole saw was as sharp as it was when we started. the best hole saw I ever had.

This Milwaukee Hole Dozer Carbide Hole Saw set is one of the best investments I have ever made. One with just one set of hole saws I can easily work with both metal and wood. The carbide tips on the saws “teeth” extend the life of each saw many times over. The coating on the outer part of the hole saw reduces friction and provides some cooling properties. This set provides all of the essential sizes necessary to do any job you may encounter. The saws hole cutting ability is excellent with very little tear out along the sides of the holes when drilling in wood.

They worked very good on steel panel boxs

This is a real nice set of hole saws that will come in handy for your handyman projects. The cutter sizes are good for most any job. There are two drill shafts of different size and the large one will be too big for some small light drills. I like that the cutters are made for deep cuts in thick materials. The carbide tips should last a long time. This is a better quality set of cutters than you will find at the discount tool stores.

Great product, thought the kit came with all the sizes opened it and half the dozers are missing.

Have had several of these kits in the years as a DIYer, but this seems to be the best so far.Plastic box contains the saws in an orderly fashion, has space for additional smaller than 7/8th saws, and the locking mechanism is sturdy as this bounces around the back of my truck.Past sets were not painted, and as these are white painted, there is a residue buildup the first few times the drills are used.Saws are easy to attach / remove with the supplied tool. May be difficult if the same saw is used for a long time and gets jammed in the locking mechanism.The only negative I saw was that for 6 of the 8 saws there were bulging teeth at the weld site. I used a plier to set them back and there was no discernable issue with the hole cutting.

The carbide kit is so much better than the normal bimetal kit it’s not even a contest. I have been abusing these things going through metal and drywall and they all look like they stil have brand new teeth. I also think milwaukee changed the coating on them cause they don’t leave colored residue on the sides of the finished holes anymore

This is an incredible Milwaukee Carbide Teeth 13-Piece hole saw set that is made in the USA. With about 9 hole saw sizes in one heavy duty storage box, this set will cover any project that could come up for a life time. I have never seen a hole saw product that has so many features with so much quality. They can cut to a depth of over 1.6 in. They have “plug jack T-slots” that make it easy to remove material from the saw after the hole has been drilled.

So far so good, I only made a few 2½” holes for pipe through 2×6’s. I hope they last because they’re fairly expensive

The Milwaukee Hole Dozer Carbide Tooth Hole Saw Set (8-Piece) is an impressive tool set. It features hole saw bits with carbide teeth that can handle materials that will quickly destroy normal hole saws. You can safely cut all woods, plastics, most metals (including stainless steel), roofing shingles, and even fiber-cement board. This kit includes an easy to use quick-release bayonet-stud style of arbor for the larger hole saws and a quick screw-on one for smaller size hole saw bits. It comes in a heavy duty blow-molded carry case that is well organized and has room for quite a few more hole saw bits. This kit only has four sizes of hole saw bits but you can get additional saw bits or even more complete sets from Milwaukee and the Home Depot. I’ll be getting more bits as I need them.

I’ve been using this Hole Dozer hole saw set to cut holes in 1/8” and 1/4” clear plexiglass for some enclosures I’m making. The product description doesn’t mention thermoplastics as one of the materials that the saws will cut, so I was initially unsure how well it would cut plexiglass. I’ve used my drill press to cut the holes and found that for the larger saws a speed of 2500 rpm is good for cutting without heating and melting the plastic and leaving smooth edges, while a slightly higher speed around 3000 rpm is best for the smaller saws. I’m very pleased with their performance. One of the best engineered features of these hole saws is the ease at which they can be mounted and removed from the Quick-Change arbors. The clever design eliminates the need for wrenches or hex keys, and it takes only about 10 seconds to mount or remove a saw. The sturdy plastic case is an excellent organizational help for the saws. It’s compact, and it makes it easy to quickly locate the saws and arbors.Made in USA
