Milwaukee 49-56-0244 Bi-metal Hole Saw 5-1/4 in 3.5 Tpi 5 Pc

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 49-56-0244 is a five-piece bi-metal hole saw bundle built around a 5-1/4 inch diameter saw with a 3.5 TPI tooth configuration. The 3.5 TPI design is engineered for extended tool life in metal cutting applications. A thermoset coating reduces friction during the cut, which translates to faster cutting speeds and improved performance with cordless tools. All-access slots along the body allow for easier plug removal and provide the operator with better pilot bit visibility for accurate hole placement. This bundle is suited for electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors who regularly cut through metal and other common construction materials.

The 49-56-0244 bundle is intended for general-purpose hole cutting across a range of materials including metal, wood, and composite substrates. The 5-1/4 inch diameter is commonly used for conduit knockouts, pipe penetrations, and junction box openings. The 3.5 TPI geometry keeps chip ejection efficient during longer cuts, reducing heat buildup at the cutting edge. The five-piece bundle format makes it practical for technicians who need multiple saws staged for a job or who want backup capacity on site.

Installation Notes

Installation of hole saws of this size is typically performed by licensed electricians, plumbers, or HVAC technicians as part of penetration and rough-in work. Always secure the workpiece before cutting and use appropriate eye and hand protection. Confirm the pilot bit is fully engaged before beginning the cut to prevent walking. Allow the saw to cool between successive holes to maintain tooth integrity.
