49-56-0173 Hole Dozer Bi-metal Hole Saw, 3 In. Dia

The Milwaukee Hole Dozer bi-metal hole saw is a cutting tool built with the Rip Guard tooth form—the strongest tooth design in the hole saw industry—that delivers extended tool life and superior performance on demanding jobsites. The bi-metal construction combined with 8% cobalt content resists wear, maintains edge sharpness through extended use, and produces consistent hole quality across multiple cuts.

This 3-inch diameter hole saw solves common frustrations faced by contractors and DIY enthusiasts: tooth breakage, slow chip clearing, and difficulty removing plugs from thick or thin materials. The Plug Jack all-access slot design provides full access to the plug cup, with multiple leverage points that work equally well on thick material (accessing lower into the cup) or thin material (accessing near the teeth). This innovation eliminates wasted downtime between holes and increases overall productivity.
