Milwaukee 49-57-0626 Steel Hawg Annular Cutter 5/8 in

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 49-57-0626 is a 5/8-inch quick change tang drive Steel Hawg annular cutter designed for high-speed hole cutting in metal. Carbide teeth with an alternating cutting pattern allow it to cut holes up to 1 inch deep in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and aluminum. The quick change tang drive system allows fast bit changes without tools, reducing downtime between operations. This cutter leaves a ream-like finish and does not require pre-punching or pilot holes before use. It is used primarily by ironworkers, millwrights, and mechanical contractors working with electromagnetic drill presses on structural and fabricated steel.

The 49-57-0626 is intended for use with electromagnetic and magnetic drill presses in fabrication shops, structural steel erection, and mechanical equipment installation. It is compatible with arbor 49-57-0012 or 49-57-0013 on Milwaukee 4292-1 or 4297-1 magnetic drill presses, arbor 49-57-0032 on Milwaukee 4262-1 mag press, and No. 3 Morse taper arbor assembly 49-57-0010. It is also rated for use on the Milwaukee 4252 Steel Hawg. Hole cutting rates up to 3 times faster than conventional twist-drill methods are reported for steel plate applications.

Key Features

• Alternating tooth geometry for fast, efficient cutting in steel and ferrous metals
• Abrasion-resistant carbide teeth extend cutter life and produce a cleaner finished bore
• Quick change tang drive allows rapid cutter swaps without tooling
• Cuts up to 1 inch deep without pre-punching or pilot holes required
• Produces a ream-like finish suitable for precision hole tolerances
• Compatible with most electromagnetic drill press platforms via standard tang drive

Compatibility

Compatible with arbor 49-57-0012 or 49-57-0013 on Milwaukee 4292-1 or 4297-1 magnetic drill presses, arbor 49-57-0032 on Milwaukee 4262-1 mag press, No. 3 Morse taper arbor assembly 49-57-0010, and the Milwaukee 4252 Steel Hawg. Also works with most electromagnetic drill presses accepting a quick change tang drive arbor.

Installation Notes

Installation and cutter changes should be performed with the magnetic drill press powered off and the base secured to the workpiece before engaging the magnet. Ensure the arbor and tang drive interface are clean and free of metal chips before seating the cutter. Cutting fluid or cutting oil should be applied to extend cutter life and maintain hole quality, particularly in stainless steel and cast iron. This tool is typically operated by ironworkers or millwrights following applicable site safety and OSHA machine-guarding requirements.
