Milwaukee 49-59-2218 Hss Annular Cutter 2-3/16 in Sheet Metal

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 49-59-2218 is a high speed steel (HSS) annular cutter designed for fast, clean hole cutting in sheet metal and mild steel plate. Built with a thin-wall construction and advanced tooth geometry, the cutter removes less material per pass than conventional hole saws, resulting in faster cycle times and reduced heat buildup. The 3/4 inch Weldon shank fits most small magnetic drill presses and larger mag drills with the appropriate arbor. Licensed tradespeople and fabricators working in structural steel, HVAC ductwork, and metal fabrication shops rely on this cutter for burr-free results without secondary deburring.

This annular cutter is rated for mild steel applications including sheet metal, light plate, and structural sections. It suits jobsite and shop use anywhere a magnetic drill press is deployed. The thin-wall design means the cutter displaces less material for the same finished hole diameter compared to standard twist drills or bimetal hole saws, keeping chips manageable and bore edges clean. Use with ejector pin part number 49-59-0012 for proper slug ejection.

Key Features

• Advanced tooth geometry cuts and cleans material simultaneously while drilling, reducing burr formation
• Thin-wall construction displaces less material, increasing hole speed and extending cutter life
• 3/4 inch Weldon shank compatible with most small and large magnetic drill presses
• Rated for mild steel and sheet metal applications
• Use with ejector pin 49-59-0012 for slug ejection

Compatibility

Designed for use with magnetic drill presses accepting a 3/4 inch Weldon shank. Larger mag drills require the correct arbor adapter. Compatible ejector pin: 49-59-0012.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by qualified metalworkers or licensed tradespeople familiar with magnetic drill press operation. Secure the magnetic drill base fully to the workpiece before beginning the cut, and verify the work surface is free of paint or scale that could reduce magnetic hold. Always power down and unplug the drill before changing cutters. Use cutting fluid appropriate for mild steel to extend cutter life and improve finish quality.
