Product Description
Milwaukee 2-1/4 in. Switchblade Single Replacement Blade
Model Number: 48-25-5443
The Milwaukee 48-25-5443 is a single replacement cutting blade for the Milwaukee 2-1/4 in. Switchblade Self-Feed Wood Boring Bit — the individual blade unit replacement option for contractors who need a single fresh blade for immediate use without purchasing a multi-blade kit. Milwaukee's Switchblade bit system uses interchangeable cutting blade inserts that engage the bit body through a tool-free push-button release mechanism, enabling field blade replacement in approximately 10 seconds at the work location. When the 2-1/4 in. Switchblade's cutting blade has dulled from drilling, the worn blade is ejected and this replacement blade is snapped in — restoring the bit's full cutting sharpness and drilling performance immediately without returning to the service vehicle or purchasing an entirely new bit body at the much higher cost of a complete bit replacement.
The 2-1/4 in. diameter is used for major rough-in penetrations including 2 in. conduit through-holes, large-diameter plumbing rough-in, HVAC ductwork penetrations, and other large-bore applications through wood framing where this specific diameter is the correct specification for the conduit or pipe system being installed. The single blade format is the right purchasing option when one replacement blade is all that is needed to complete the current job without committing to the inventory cost of a multi-blade kit — economical for contractors who maintain a Switchblade bit for occasional large-diameter drilling without the high-volume blade consumption that would justify multi-blade kit purchasing. Blades are precision-manufactured to the correct geometry and sharpness specification for the 2-1/4 in. Switchblade bit body for consistent performance on installation.
Also available in 3-blade and 10-blade kit quantities for higher-volume use — see Milwaukee's complete Switchblade replacement blade lineup for all diameters from 1-3/8 in. through 2-9/16 in. in all available quantities.
