Product Description
Milwaukee Feed and Set Screw Accessory Set
Model Number: 48-25-6000
The Milwaukee 48-25-6000 is a Feed and Set Screw Accessory Set for Milwaukee SELFEED self-feeding wood boring bits — providing the consumable replacement hardware components that wear out or get lost during regular professional use of Milwaukee selfeed bits on rough-in drilling projects. The kit contains 5 feed screws, 3 set screws, and a hex wrench, covering the complete hardware replacement needs for restoring a worn or damaged selfeed bit to full operational performance. The feed screw is the small precision-threaded tip component at the center of each selfeed bit that functions as the self-advancing mechanism — as the bit rotates, the feed screw's threads engage the wood and mechanically pull the entire bit assembly into the workpiece, creating the rapid self-feeding advance that gives these bits their 10x speed advantage over standard spade bits. Feed screws are consumable wear components that progressively dull through the combined effects of wood grain contact, nail and staple impacts in retrofit drilling, and normal use — when the feed screw's thread sharpness degrades below a functional threshold, the bit loses its self-feeding characteristic and reverts to requiring the operator to apply manual drilling pressure, eliminating the speed and fatigue benefits of the selfeed design.
Set screws are the retention fasteners that secure the two cutting wing blades on each selfeed bit at their correct angular position relative to the bit body — properly torqued set screws maintain the wing blades in the precise geometry that produces clean, accurate holes of the specified diameter. Loose set screws allow wing blade movement during drilling that produces oversized, irregular holes and can cause wing blade loss that damages the workpiece and the bit body. The included hex wrench is the correct tool for tightening set screws to the appropriate torque level for secure, reliable retention in service. This accessory set is universally compatible with all Milwaukee selfeed bits from 1 in. through 2-9/16 in. diameter in both standard and extended length configurations, making it the single hardware kit that covers every Milwaukee selfeed bit in the product line.
Electricians, plumbers, HVAC installers, and other rough-in tradespeople who rely on Milwaukee selfeed bits for production drilling should keep the 48-25-6000 kit in their tool bag as a standard field maintenance supply — a worn feed screw represents a small consumable cost that, when replaced promptly, maintains the full productivity advantage of selfeed bits throughout the drilling project.
