I own both the 6 ton as well as the 10 ton knock out sets. They're real time savers and a serious upgrade from my old Greenlee knockout set that was awkward in some positions trying to balance the knockout head, positioning the hydraulic line then having to hand pump using the traditional knockout system. The 6 ton is faster but the 10 ton is more powerful, I use the 6 ton for my knockouts up to 2" (even though it's rated for up to 4") & I use my 10 ton for knockouts ranging 2.5" and up or for knocking through heavier gauge cabinets. There are also quick-release draw studs from Milwaukee that makes the process even faster. Even better is the fact that the Greenlee stainless steel speed punch system works perfectly with the Milwaukee M18 knockout for the best of both worlds option.
Just bought one, I appreciate your very insightful video! We have a growing company and our Greenlee old school knockout just died on us. I thank you for the detailed analysis and not ONLY showing it do just a 3/4" hole. Best of luck to everyone out there in the field!
Awesome tool, however after few years of usage it starts to leak oil, I was not able to find a seal kit and Milwaukee repair center wants more then the tool itself for the repair.
@@ashdivakaran9664 It is a cleaner cut with the knockout kit without all the metal shavings. Plus, I would not use a hole saw when adding a pipe to a live electrical panel. This makes it worry-free. 😃 It does also depend on the size of the hole you want to cut. They do make a hole saw kit made for making holes in electrical panels. Klein Tools, Ideal , and Milwaukee now just came out with there set. They are fast cuts but still get a little bit of metal shavings. There is a safety knotch on each bit to help stop the bit to pentrate completely through, when drilling with it. If I was only doing a 1/2 - 1 inch hole. I would use these is some situations.
@@PhillipBridgesReviews yeah, makes sense. I need to punch holes in a stainless steel junction box before it gets installed. I think I’ll continue to use a hole saw & pedestal drill.
