Milwaukee next-generation compact m18 fuel™ impact wrenches are only 124mm long and deliver up to 339 nm of torque where larger nut wrenches can’t fit.

“In the third generation of Milwaukee M18 FUEL™ impact wrenches, we have shortened the tools by 31 mm while increasing power. Thanks to this, the tool reaches more compact spaces and users don’t have to spend time dismantling parts to gain access to awkward nuts,” says Alexander Flemming, Product Manager at Milwaukee Tool. The new M18 FUEL™ impact wrench combinesthreeMILWAUKEE ® innovations – the carbonbrushlessPOWERSTATE ™ engine, REDLINK PLUS electronics and the REDLITHIUMbattery.

The carbon brushless POWERSTATE ™ engine produces the power to remove stubborn nuts, while REDLINK PLUS ™ electronics ensure maximum performance and protect the tool from overloading and overheating.

The M18 REDLITHIUM battery ensures that the tools provide better performance each charge and improves battery life.
Drive CONTROL 4 provides better accuracy with pre-set RPM and IPM levels that can be selected with a single button. Select mode 4 when the tool rotates forward, auto-off mode tightens the nut up to 34 Nm to prevent over-tightening. When the tool rotates backwards, mode 4 is used to control the release of the nut, which begins by producing full torque and then reduces the speed of rotation when the nut loosens which prevents it from spinning off the socket. For improved visibility in cramped and poorly lit work areas, these tools are equipped with triple PANELs that produce brighter light and fewer shadows.

The new M18 FUEL™ nut wrenches are fully compatiblewith the entireM18 ™ system, which now has over 190 power tools powered by the same battery system.
