Mid-Torque Impact Wrenches

Milwaukee Tool has introduced M18 FUEL 1/2" . The new tools are similar in size and weight to compact impact wrenches, but deliver 450 ft-lbs. of fastening torque and 600 ft-lbs. of nut-busting torque.

"Through our field research, it was evident that there was a need to provide a solution with more torque than our M18 FUEL Compact Impact Wrenches while benefiting from a lighter weight, more compact solution than our High Torque Impacts," said Eric Rusch, Product Manager for Milwaukee Tool. "With plenty of power to tackle a wide array of heavy fastening applications, the Mid-Torque is up to 4 inches shorter and weighs 2 lbs. less than competitive tools in the high torque class, allowing more access into tight spaces and reducing user fatigue."

The new models include an M18 FUEL Mid-Torque Impact Wrench with 1/2" pin detent and an M18 FUEL Mid-Torque Impact Wrench with 1/2" friction ring. Both are also designed with a three-mode drive control feature, providing the user with the versatility to switch between modes one, two and three to match the power and speed to the application at hand. Similar to other M18 FUEL Impact Wrenches, these solutions have a specialized rubber overmold material that provides comfort during prolonged use while lasting longer against corrosive materials.

The new tools feature three Milwaukee-exclusive innovations designed to provide enhanced performance, durability and run-time: POWERSTATE Brushless Motor, REDLITHIUM XC5.0 Battery Pack and REDLINK PLUS Intelligence Hardware and Software.
