While traditional bi-metal hole saws still have their place in certain applications, for rough holes in framing members 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 4″ model is an 8-second hole through 2x pine framing with my M18 Hole Hawg. With the smaller drill pictured it was roughly a 15-second hole, as I dropped it down to low gear (which I would not recommend anyone other than a pro user doing – I only used this size drill to show how efficiently these Big Hawgs cut).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.

Great hole saw that ejects chips and plugs and stays coolI find many hole saws to be frustrating as the teeth are quickly buried in the wood and so they no longer clear chips and so slow down and get super hot. That burns the cut and quickly dulls the teeth so they wear out. To add insult to injury you’re stuck trying to wedge a plug out of the saw with a screw driver so you can make the next cut.This hole saw addresses basically all those problems. With two big carbide teeth and deep troughs the bit quickly clears chips as you’re drilling. I got no burning on my test cuts and the plug fell right out without any problems. Really, there isn’t anything more you could ask.Who is this for:Anyone cutting 1 3/4″ holes through sheathing or studsWho isn’t this for:Anyone needing to cut square bottom holes or make it through more than about 3″ of material

I have been a big fan of Milwaukee for a long, long time. So I have been a bit dismayed that they moved their production overseas. A couple of recent tools have been short of my expectations. But, overall they do still seem to distribute a great product. This “Hole Saw”, is reminiscent of their production standards of awhile back. Mind you, they still produce good stuff. Their product control standards are in place. But I digress, this “Hole Saw” weighs in at a whopping 2 Lbs packaged, this is a saw not for a small drill, so again my Milwaukee Hawg angled drill will power this saw through walls. Solid and impressive Hole Saw, still a fan.

Yea Baby – That’s what I’m talking about! This Big Hawg Carbide Hole Saw can cut some holes! I have to say I was skeptical at first just by looking at the design – but the first hole made me a believer. I have a bunch of hole saws – the ones with the finer teeth – but on larger holes they just seem to take forever and clearing them is a pain. I cannot say enough about how impressed I was – and I have cut some holes in my day. At first I was going to chuck this up in the Milwaukee Hole Hawg – a beast that you really need to be careful with – but decided to use my 18 volt Milwaukee drill instead. Watch the attached video and you be the judge. As for me, I will be using the Big Dog Hawgs going forward. Thank you Milwaukee!

4 in. Big Hawg Carbide Hole SawThis is a really nice saw blade. The carbide seems to last very long and the three blade configuration is a definite advantage over traditional saw blade. The reason is two part. First the three blades have a huge relief area for the chips to go into. This means less cleaning of the hole out while drilling. Second the space between the blades is flat and set a small distance below the blade. This means the saw remains level in the cutting hole and the blades are always cutting the proper depth of material. This is a very clever design. See the pictures and video.

Note for purchase, you need a Milwaukee 49-56-9305 arbor which is sold separately. Milwaukee’s saw blades have always held up for me longer than other brands. I know that they will hold up well and I won’t have an issue with it. This blade is no exception. I was able to easily cut through 2 different materials, one that I knew was littered with nails. This didn’t burn out and I’m confident will do the job on many more projects.

These hole saws work great. I have already ordered more.

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

This Big Hawg Carbide Hole Saw goes right through the material and leaves a nice clean hole

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.

The Big Hawg is becoming the Go To Hole Saw. As my others wear-out i will be replacing them with the Hawg. It works great in plaster ceilings when cutting in lights and boxes. Need a longer pilot bit, and a little pricey. Hopefully will last much longer than traditional Hole Saws.

Used this to cut holes in “support wood” over a drop ceiling for led lights. Worked great and made the task go quickly. I have 25 more holes to do so that was a great tool for this job…
