Milwaukee Electric Tool continues to expand the fastest growing 18V platform in the industry with the introduction of the new M18 FUEL 1/4" Hex Impact Driver. As part of the new M18 FUEL family, a new breed of cordless power tools within the M18 System, the new 1/4" Hex Impact Driver features Milwaukee’s exclusive combination of the POWERSTATE Brushless Motor, REDLITHIUM Battery Pack and REDLINK PLUS Electronic Intelligence to deliver up to 3X longer motor life, up to 50% more runtime, and a proprietary 3-Mode DRIVE CONTROL feature.
“The 3-Mode DRIVE CONTROL feature gives users better control over the power and speed required for specific applications,” says Tom Simeone, Sr. Product Manager for Milwaukee Tool Corporation. “With the touch of a button, they can go from a precise application such as fastening small machine screws to an application that requires maximum performance such as driving lag screws.”
The new POWERSTATE Brushless Motor works harder, lives longer, and converts energy into power and torque more efficiently than leading competitors. The POWERSTATE Motor is completely designed, engineered and built by Milwaukee Tool, providing up to 1600 in-lbs of torque and 0-2900 RPM to make the M18 FUEL 1/4" Hex Impact Driver the most powerful tool in its class. The POWERSTATE Motor also reduces noise and cools more rapidly, delivering years of maintenance-free performance.
Milwaukee REDLITHIUM Batteries provide significantly more run-time, power and recharges than any other Lithium product on the market. REDLITHIUM also delivers best-in-class performance in extreme job-site conditions. With Milwaukee durability built into each pack, the REDLITHIUM Battery operates cooler and performs in climates as low as 0°F/-18°C with fade free power. A battery fuel gauge also displays remaining charge for less down time on the job.
REDLINK PLUS Intelligence hardware and software, the most advanced electronic system on the market, allows the user to choose between three fastening modes with the DRIVE CONTROL feature.
In addition, all M18 FUEL products include the new multi-voltage charger to allow users to charge all M12 and M18 batteries with one charger.
