This is the Milwaukee 6” Dozer Carbide Hole Saw (#49-56-0749, made in the USA, by the way). If you’ve ever needed to cut a 6” hole, for a recessed light or the new LED fixtures that don’t require a ceiling box, for example, and didn’t use a hole saw, you know what a pain it can be, especially if you’re going through something other than sheetrock (such as lath and plaster). I’ve done it with rotary cut-out tools, jig saws, hand saws, whatever it took. Now, with this hole saw, making 6” holes is almost fun (well, at least when compared to the other methods). I should have bought one of these years ago…Note that this hole saw does not come with the saw arbor/pilot drill bit assembly—it’s just the hole saw. To reduce friction, Milwaukee says it has a thermoset coating—I guess that’s the white paint that covers the entire saw. At first glance it’s hard to see that the teeth are actually carbide because of the coating, but upon closer inspection, I can see that the teeth have been attached to the body—there’s a barely detectable line between each tooth and the saw body. I guess once the paint wears off, the individual teeth might be easier to see.To start testing the saw, I put in an arbor I already had (see Photo 1) and chucked the saw into my cordless, 18 volt drill. I made an initial hole in a piece of sheetrock just to see exactly how large the drilled hole is. It was 6 1/16 in, though in Photo 2 it’s hard to tell because of the angle. The package says you can use this saw on wood with nails, stainless steel, shingles, and cement board (see Photo 3). I just happen to have a piece of 20 ga. stainless steel handy, so that was my next target. I clamped it to a piece of plywood, drilled a 1/4” pilot hole with a cobalt bit (I didn’t want to take a chance with the arbor’s bit), and started drilling. You can see the result in Photo 4. I must say, I was way impressed—it took less than a minute to cut the hole. The saw is extremely sharp and if you press too hard, it will bind. You just need to apply easy pressure and let the saw do the work.A great feature is what Milwaukee calls its Plug Jack t-slots (see Photo 5)—definitely makes getting the slug out easy. Overall, this is a great hole saw.

I ordered the 6” Milwaukee Carbide Hole Saw to add to my Hole Dozer Set. I am extremely pleased with the quality of these hole saws. The carbide teeth are holding up very in my uses and these teeth stay sharp, unlike some of the brands that I have previously purchased. One of the features that work extremely well is the T-Slots which are designed to allow a wood plug to be easily ejected with a screwdriver. As most of you may know, the arbor is not included in this package.I would definitely recommend the carbide tooth Milwaukee hole saws to anyone who needs a quality saw!

I have been a builder remodeler for 49 years, and as such I have many opportunities to use a tool like this Milwaukee 6 IN. CARBIDE HOLE DOZER SAW. These carbide hole saws are of high quality, and they work very well for work requiring drilling work into more challenging materials that we drill into as we often do. Milwaukee tools are always of high quality as well, so these are a very good example of that.

The 6 inch carbide hole dozer saw arrived quickly and well packaged to prevent loss or damage, it was intact inside a blister pak. I selected it because of the mfg’ers reputation for top quality. I like the large 6 inch diameter for putting very large conduit or pvc sewer pipe etc.into the cut hole. The specific feature is the carbide sharp teeth that are gauaranteed for life, not to chip or break. I use it to cut thru all types of materials. The quality is superb. Easy to use, and switch over to smaller sizes. It’s working out as planned, I like it and would order another same one or smaller and add it to my set of Dozer hole saws.

Milwaukee 6 in. Carbide Hole Dozer SawThis item was exactly what I needed.The carbide teeth are sharp and cut through wood without an issue. I usually have to roll a hole saw from side in a rocking motion to get it to cut but this saw went straight and cut just fine with minimal rocking.The saw itself is very well made.It is just over an inch and a half deep to give you a good cutting depth, the slots on the sides assist you in getting the cut plugs out. The coating on the saw helps to prevent sticking while in use. I used it in reverse to cut 6 holes through drywall on my ceiling for recessed lights and I was finished in 10 minutes. This is a great tool from Milwaukee.I highly recommend this item.

The 6 inch carbide hole dozer is well constructed to cut a variety of materials. It does not come with the center drill bit attachment, which is sold separately, but it is designed to work with other brands as well. I used my Craftsman center drill attachment and it worked fine. I like the design of the holes in the sides to allow the cutout to more easily be removed. As with any circular saw cutter it works better to slightly rock/rotate the device as it cuts so the teeth can engage the material at varying points.

The 6 inch carbide hole dozer saw is a very good saw and has a very good weight to it. I plan to make some corn hole boards with it.. All you have to do is fill some socks with beans and you will have yourself a game to play. You will also need a drill to use it with. Yes it meets my expectations and I have had it about a week now. It don’t need extra parts for it , all you need is a good drill to use with it;

6 In Carbide Hole Dozer Saw This carbide hole saw is awesome, sure beats using any other kind of saw when you have lots of holes to cut. Husband made me a ladder of sorts to put 6 inch clay planter pots into like a shelf (4 rows and 12 holes). This hole saw will cut thru wood, metal and plastic, etc. Cutting into wood was a breeze with this saw. It’s has these rip-guard teeth for added strength and a better cut. This saw comes with a “Plug Jack” to enhance cuts for thick and thin materials and has a limited lifetime warranty for tooth breakage. I’d recommend using a 1/2 drill and a workbench with a vice to hold whatever your cutting holes into. This Milwaukee hole dozer saw is a very nice product.

This dozer saw is a monster! Although there won’t be too many times I will need a 6 inch hole, I now have the best saw ever! It cuts smoothly and quick. This is perfect for cutting holes for so many applications in wood, plastic, and metals like aluminum. The rip guard teeth are very sharp and they have a limited lifetime warranty. It cuts to 1 1/8 inch deep. Love it.

Worked as expected since I needed to perforate on cement board. Good quality product.

This is a must have for roughing in plumbing. The teeth are very aggressive and remove material quickly. It is a bit much for my 1/2” Hammer drill/driver but perfect for the hole hawg. If you do use a regular drill you will absolutely need a handle to keep from breaking a wrist or nose. I have many other hole dozer bits and they last well. The teeth remain sharp after many cuts and they really don’t heat up too bad This is also the perfect size for cornhole boards as they require a 6” hole. While this bit is t cheap it is worth the investment due to its durability, quick cutting, and efficiency.

Using a couple times now very nice to have a sturdy rigid six-inch Milwaukee holesaw busthose works well so far no issues have use it just twice cutting holes why needed to ventilation purposes so far so good everything seems to be working the ad seems to be holding up well on the cutting desk so far everything seems to working just fine would recommend this for anybody needing a 6 inch holesaw

You can’t beat these Milwaukee hole saws for being tough. The white paint job is funny because some of it invariably rubs off on the first use. But I could care less as long as it cuts well and these do. I have a full range of sizes and this 6 inch was a nice addition to the set. I’ve cut a variety of materials with them from 2×6’s and the like to light steel and they done the job well. This will likely not see the tougher materials since that is not what I had in mind for it but should the need arise I have no doubt it will do the job just as well as the other hole dozer saws I have.

I picked up this whole saw in the section size in case I needed to make a very large hole for feeding any pipe through plywood or any other material. It is there ice hardened carbide holesaw attachment. This is not the same as the hole dozer attachment that has teeth that can be re-sharpened. Detachment itself should last for many holes the only downside is you can’t re-sharpened it like you can with the hole dozer. If you’re drilling occasional holes the size this is perfect for you but if you’re going to be doing it repetitively I would definitely recommend getting a hole dozer with the carbide teeth that can be resharpen

This thing cuts great!! I was looking for something to cut through plaster, mortar and steel mesh. This saw cuts thorough it easily!! I have found that it cuts best with just a little pressure, letting the teeth do the job, rather than pushing hard against the work. Definitely recommend!!

This Saw Out Performs All Others. Milwaukee 6 inch Carbide Hole Dozer Saw is the Best I’ve Ever used or had. It cuts thru a wide variety of materials including Stainless Steel.I build a lot of cornhole boards and was using bi-metal saws and leaving the hole a little rough.Not with this Saw. Smooth cuts every time, thanks to the Carbide and the Thermoset Coating on the Saw. Anther Great Tool from Milwaukee.

About as quick through most materials as the 3-toothed carbide hole saws that I use for most of my large-hole boring. With the materials and the likelihood of nail encounters I face, the cost of carbide is well worth it. Unfortunately – even though these are marketed as being for use in “wood with nails” – the hole saw was trashed on the very first framing nail strike. Disappointing, to say the least. The carbide Milwaukee Big Hawgs that I use will just chew right through nails – even lags – with no damage to them, or even discernible wear. These should be great for through abrasive materials, but I would not consider them for use anywhere encountering a substantial nail or other metal fastener is a possibility.
