Milwaukee 1590 MCM ACSR Cable Cutter Replacement Blades
Model Number: 49-16-2775
The Milwaukee 49-16-2775 is a set of genuine OEM replacement blades for the Milwaukee 1590 MCM ACSR Cable Cutter — restoring full cutting capacity and clean cut performance when the original blades have dulled from production cutting of large ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced) cable. The 1590 MCM ACSR capacity represents one of the largest standard cable cutting ratings available — ACSR cable at this size is used in high-voltage transmission line construction and major distribution feeder upgrades where the large aluminum conductor cross-section provides the high current-carrying capacity and the steel core provides the mechanical strength for long transmission spans. Cutting ACSR cable at 1590 MCM with the steel reinforcing core places extreme demands on the cutter blades — the blade specification must handle both the aluminum strands' low-strength high-volume cutting and the steel core's high-strength small-diameter cutting in the same single cutting cycle.
When the blades dull from extended large-conductor ACSR cutting, the cutter's hydraulic force requirement per cut increases noticeably, cut ends become less clean, and the tool may struggle to complete cuts on the largest cable sizes within its rated capacity. Replacing the blades with these genuine Milwaukee OEM replacement blades restores the cutter's full rated ACSR cutting capacity. Using genuine OEM blades ensures the correct blade geometry and hardness for the 1590 MCM cutter's hydraulic mechanism — non-OEM blades with incorrect specifications degrade cut quality and can damage the cutter.
