Milwaukee 49-57-1002 Steel Hawg Annular Cutter

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 49-57-1002 is a quick change tang drive Steel Hawg annular cutter designed for high-speed hole cutting in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Carbide teeth arranged in an alternating cutting pattern deliver cuts up to 3 times faster than standard twist drills while producing a ream-like finish. The cutter handles a 1 inch hole depth in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and aluminum without requiring pre-punching or pilot holes. Licensed tradespeople and fabricators working with electromagnetic drill presses will find this cutter a direct fit for high-volume structural and mechanical work.

The 49-57-1002 is suited for metal fabrication, ironwork, and structural steel applications in both field and shop environments. It is compatible with most electromagnetic drill presses and is sized for use in production cutting scenarios where clean hole quality and rapid tool changeover reduce overall cycle time. The quick change tang drive system eliminates the need for wrenches during bit swaps, making it practical on busy job sites where multiple hole diameters are needed in sequence.

Key Features

• Alternating tooth form geometry accelerates cutting speed by up to 3 times compared to conventional twist drills
• Abrasion-resistant Carbide teeth extend cutter service life and improve hole finish quality
• Quick change tang drive allows fast tool swaps without additional hardware
• Cuts up to 1 inch hole depth in a single pass with no pilot hole required
• Produces a ream-like finish suitable for close-tolerance fastener applications

Compatibility

Works with most electromagnetic drill presses. Compatible with arbors 49-57-0012 or 49-57-0013 on Milwaukee 4292-1 or 4297-1 magnetic drill presses, and with arbor 49-57-0032 on the Milwaukee 4262-1 magnetic drill press.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by qualified tradespeople familiar with electromagnetic drill press operation and metal cutting procedures. Secure the workpiece firmly before engaging the cutter, and ensure the magnetic base is fully energized and seated on a clean, flat surface before drilling. Inspect the tang drive connection for proper seating before each use. Follow all applicable OSHA and manufacturer safety guidelines for rotary cutting tools.
