Milwaukee 49-57-8335 Carbide Annular Cutter 2.25 in

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 49-57-8335 is a carbide-tipped annular cutter designed for cutting clean, precise holes in sheet metal and structural materials up to 3/16 inches thick. The cutter features a quick-change stainless steel shank for fast arbor swaps without additional tooling. At 2.25 inches in diameter, it produces fine holes in stainless steel, structural steel studs, brass, aluminum, and other thin sheet materials. It is compatible with handheld drills and delivers results comparable to a drill press setup. Applying cutting fluid during use extends carbide tip life; MILWAUKEE recommends Hawg Wash cutting fluid for optimal performance.

This cutter is suited for sheet metal work in commercial and residential construction, mechanical rooms, and fabrication environments. Electricians, HVAC installers, and plumbers use annular cutters like this one to create clean knockout-style holes in metal framing, enclosures, and panels without distorting surrounding material. The quick-change shank system speeds up tool changes on the job, reducing downtime when working through multiple hole sizes in a single session.
