Product Description
Milwaukee 2 in. Diamond Premium Wet Core Bit
Model Number: 48-17-2020
The Milwaukee 48-17-2020 is a 2 in. Diamond Premium Wet Core Bit for precision core drilling through cured and reinforced concrete in commercial and industrial construction applications. Milwaukee Diamond Premium Wet Core Bits use only premium-grade diamonds in an engineered segment bond that maintains optimal diamond exposure throughout the segment's service life, resisting the glazing that causes standard bits to slow progressively in hard aggregate commercial concrete. The 2 in. diameter serves 1-1/2 in. conduit sleeve installations, major plumbing drain penetrations, and mechanical equipment connections where the 2 in. bore provides the clearance needed for the conduit system or fitting hardware being installed. At this mid-size diameter, the premium segment specification provides consistent cutting speed from first hole through the complete project scope — an important advantage over standard bits on commercial projects requiring many 2 in. core holes.
Wet cutting with continuous water flow is essential for diamond core bit performance — water cools the diamond segments against the cutting interface heat that would cause glazing without cooling, flushes concrete slurry from the hole to maintain cutting clearance, lubricates the segment-concrete interface, and suppresses crystalline silica dust for OSHA compliance on occupied commercial jobsites. Milwaukee's premium core bit range covers 3/4 in. through 12 in. in the same premium segment specification, allowing contractors to standardize on consistent quality performance across all core diameters needed on a project. The 2 in. core bit is used across Milwaukee's full range of core drilling platforms from SDS+ adapter setups through dedicated diamond core drill machines for applications where the production pace or structural requirements justify different platform choices.
