Milwaukee® Elevates the Industry Benchmark with More Capable, Compact 12V Drilling & Driving Solutions

Milwaukee Tool continues to change user perceptions of cordless capability by introducing the next generation of its M12 FUEL^™ Drilling and Driving solutions – raising the bar yet again for 12V performance.

The completely redesigned M12 FUEL^™ Drill Driver, M12 FUEL^™ Percussion Drill, and M12 FUEL^™ 1/4” Hex Impact Driver are capable of performing a wide range of applications in the tightest of spaces, making them the most compact and most capable 12V solutions in the industry. The new Impact Driver also features 4-Mode DRIVE CONTROL^™ for superior control over output speed and power for greater versatility.

“Milwaukee Tool revolutionised the professional power tool market when we first created the 12V sub-compact space with the introduction of the M12^™ system. We set the industry benchmark even higher when we launched our M12 FUEL^™ drilling and driving solutions in 2013, and we have remained the leader in sub-compact system performance. Ever since, we’ve continued to remain on the forefront of incredible technology advancements that have ultimately reshaped users’ expectations of cordless power tool capabilities,” said Bela Berecz, Product Manager for Milwaukee Tool.

“By pairing our newest cordless technologies with design features born from our user-driven research, we’re setting the industry standard once again with our newest generation of M12^™ Drilling and Fastening products, designed to provide users with power and portability like they’ve never experienced before with a sub-compact solution!”

M12 FUEL^™ Drill Driver & M12 FUEL^™ Percussion Drill

The new M12 FUEL^™ Drill Driver and M12 FUEL^™ Percussion Drill are the most capable, lightest weight, and most compact tools in their class. These are also the only 12V tools on the market with an all-metal 13mm chuck, giving them the power to perform a wide range of applications. Each features a POWERSTATE^™ Brushless Motor that delivers up to 1700 RPM’s and 44Nm of peak torque. Weighing in at only 1.2kg with battery and 167.6mm in length, both tools are extremely portable and ideal for overhead applications and offer the best access in tight spaces – the optimal solutions for Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, Remodelers and Maintenance workers looking to carry a more compact, portable solution.

M12 FUEL^™ 1/4” Hex Impact Driver

The M12 FUEL^™ 1/4” Hex Impact Driver features best-in-class driving speed, power, and size. Delivering 20% faster application speeds compared to the previous model, the new tool has an output of more than 147Nm of torque. The POWERSTATE^™ Brushless Motor delivers up to 0-3,300 RPM with constant power output to drive screws faster.

This means users will be able to not only get work done faster, but a wider range of fastening as well. The tool is designed with a four-mode DRIVE CONTROL^™ feature, providing the user with the versatility to switch between modes to match the power and speed to the application at hand.
