By harnessing the power, performance and run-time that it is able to deliver through M18 FUEL technology, Milwaukee introduces the M18 FUEL 1/4" Die Grinder. "Capable of removing material faster than a corded grinder, the M18 FUEL 1/4" Die Grinder can grind for up to 20 minutes on a single charge, has up to 10X longer motor life, and can remove up to 2X more weld than any other cordless die grinder," said a company spokesperson.
"When faced with a situation that requires grinding in tight spaces or irregular surfaces, mechanical and metal fabrication professionals will most often turn to a die grinder to get the job done. However, the cordless options available in today's market do not offer the performance or run-time required for prolonged use," said Andrew Plowman, Vice President of Product Management for Milwaukee Tool. "We spent countless hours conducting jobsite research and advancing our technologies until we could introduce a solution that provides a true productivity enhancement with the M18 FUEL 1/4" Die Grinder."
"By combining three exclusive innovations - the POWERSTATE brushless motor, REDLITHIUM battery pack and REDLINK PLUS intelligence - the new M18 FUEL 1/4" Die Grinder provides users with the ability to remove material faster than a corded die grinder," said the spokesperson.
When equipped with an M18 REDLITHIUM XC5.0 Battery Pack the tool provides the ability to grind up to 20 minutes on one charge.
The new die grinder also features the same metal housing and gearing system found in Milwaukee's high performance corded die grinders.
The new M18 FUEL 1/4" Die Grinder is fully compatible with the entire M18 line, now offering more than 125 power tool products, including a full range of cordless solutions for mechanical and metal fabrication professionals to cut, prep, weld and grind - from the M18 FUEL 1-1/2" Magnetic Drill and M18 FUEL Grinder to the M18 FUEL Deep Cut Band Saw.
