Product Description
Milwaukee 3-1/2 in. Diamond Premium Wet Core Bit
Model Number: 48-17-2035
The Milwaukee 48-17-2035 is a 3-1/2 in. Diamond Premium Wet Core Bit — a large-diameter core bit in Milwaukee's premium wet core bit lineup for major conduit bundle penetrations, large mechanical equipment connections, and structural access openings requiring the 3-1/2 in. bore through cured and reinforced concrete. Milwaukee Diamond Premium Wet Core Bits use only premium-grade diamonds in an engineered segment bond that maintains consistent cutting speed and segment integrity in the hardest commercial concrete conditions where standard bits slow progressively from segment glazing. At 3-1/2 in. diameter, the large cutting face generates substantial heat during drilling — the premium segment bond's glazing resistance is particularly important for maintaining cutting effectiveness throughout each hole's depth in demanding high-strength concrete at this bore size.
Wet cutting with abundant, continuous water supply is critical at 3-1/2 in. diameter — water cools the diamond segments, flushes the substantial concrete slurry volume from the hole interior, maintains cutting clearance, lubricates the segment-concrete interface, and provides OSHA crystalline silica dust suppression. Core barrel extensions are available separately for penetrations deeper than the standard barrel length provides. Milwaukee's premium core bit range covers 3/4 in. through 12 in. in the same premium segment specification for standardized quality performance across all core diameters on a commercial project. The 3-1/2 in. is used across Milwaukee's full range of core drilling platforms for applications where the production pace or material conditions justify the premium specification.
