Much needed addition for plumbing large diameter sewage pipes. Heavy but durable. Worked great with Milwaukee Super Hawg.

These new Milwaukee Big Hawg hole saws are nasty they will drill thru wood like butter, I tried mine out on a 2×4 and it went thru it in just a few seconds. I didn’t know what to expect with it only having 3 teeth but let me tell you it is a flat out monster! The carbide teeth on it are razor sharp and will make quick work of any job and the large gullets make ejecting chips faster and also when you go to pull the plug you drilled out the large gullets make it super easy! This only comes with the hole saw, you have to buy the arbor separate and I know they recommend arbor Model # 49-56-9305, however they did not have this in my store and I was eager to try this hole saw so I bought arbor model number Model # 49-56-7250 and it works great with the Big Hawg hole saw, I really like how it is a tool free removable arbor that is a great feature. I definitely recommend these hole saws they are monsters!

Milwaukee never lets me down! These are amazing hole saws that pretty much rips through any material yet leaves a clean and perfectly honed hole. They aren’t overly heavy and works well with their m12 drills. My only wish is that they come in a bundle with several sizes and a kit that holds them all together. Overall these are by far some of the best hole saws you can buy.

While traditional bi-metal hole saws still have their place in certain applications, for rough holes in framing members – and especially anywhere that nails might be encountered – 3-tooth carbide hole saws such as these Milwaukee Big Hawgs, can’t be beat.As a residential electrical contractor, boring holes in wood framing members is something I do most days – some days, much of the day. For many years, self-feed bits were the only real option to the professional for larger holes. While they also provide for rapid boring, one good nail strike and they require costly sharpening. They also require a lot of drill. The Big Hawgs, were they are only cutting the kerf of the saw out, require a lot less drill, making them ideal, with today’s cordless job.This 3-5/8″ model is a 6-second hole through 2x pine framing, with either drill pictured. In my video there, I am cutting through 3 12d common framing nails, which this thing just eats up. Just ease off a little bit, and let the carbide teeth chip away at the nail. That hole was still only roughly a 10-second hole. No discernible damage or wear was evident after doing this multiple times. Again, these are designed for rapid large holes through framing and other construction materials, and excel at it. If you require a more refined hole, or are drilling through thin, brittle material – such as vinyl siding – a traditional hole saw is what you seek.

As a plumber, when i rough in a house I need tools that are going to work day after day that work well and without breaking down. For years I’ve used Big Hawg holesaws and I have never been let down. In rough plumbing there are always hidden things that must be drilled through whether it’s drywall screws that you didn’t see or a jumble of nails that simply can’t be removed or even piles of old cement plaster that are inside the walls or joists. I grab the BigHawg holesaw and go. It is of superior quality. There is no other holesaw on the market made to this high standard. As soon as I drill a few holes in “impossible” materials the other trades on the job want to know what I’m using and where they can get a set. Get a set, you won’t be disappointed!!!

This is another of those products that takes a SawzAll and a half stick of dynamite to get it out of the packaging, which is really, really annoying (I dinged it one star for that). Other than that, the carbide tips are thick and sharp and can probably be sharpened several times if one had the capability of doing that. It takes a standard arbor, which anyone who regularly uses hole saws should have (as opposed to a Freud/Diablo hole saw I recently purchased, which only accepts a Freud arbor), and it is fairly deep–a full two inches even after accounting for the arbor protrusion. If you are new to large hole saws and have a powerful 1/2″ drill (all of the arbors for this size hole saw require a 1/2″ drill, unless you can find an adapter somewhere), start your cut slowly to minimize binding or you are likely to end up with a sprained wrist. Once the teeth are buried in the hole, binding is less likely as long as you keep the saw straight.

Look forward to the new innovations that Milwaukee puts into their new versions of old products. When you are a seasoned tradesman you realize the innovation that goes into these upgraded tools. With the bigger hole bits you have to be concerned with your battery power and this bit works well and stays sharp. I am really happy with the innovation and the results of this product! Thanks!
