Second Generation Die Grinders



Milwaukee Tool offers the next generation in cordless die grinding with the M18 FUEL Variable Speed Braking Die Grinder, Paddle Switch w/ONE-KEY and M18 FUEL Braking Die Grinder, Slide Switch. These die grinders feature enhanced safety, precision and control. Providing 11A corded performance without the frustrations of hoses, cords and compressors, they are designed to help cut the cord of AC and pneumatic die grinding to drive more productivity, the company reported.

"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," said Brian Alves, Director of Product Management at Milwaukee Tool. "We are committed to providing users dedicated solutions for each application. These die grinders round out Milwaukee's grinder offering and are a great addition to our current grinding options for those harder-to-reach applications."

Both die grinders feature RAPIDSTOP Brake for enhanced user safety, stopping most accessories in less than two seconds. Combining three exclusive innovations-the POWERSTATE brushless motor, REDLITHIUM battery pack and REDLINK PLUS intelligence-these die grinders provide users with the versatility and performance needed to remove material faster than a corded die grinder, the company said.

M18 FUEL Variable Speed Braking Die Grinder, Paddle Switch w/ONE-KEY can deburr up to 35 pipes per charge when paired with an M18 REDLITHIUM XC5.0 battery, allowing users to get more work done. With five speeds to provide increased control, the variable speed allows users to match the speed to the application ranging from 8,000 to 20,000 RPM.

This die grinder is compatible with up to 2" accessories for material removal, maximizing productivity in various applications. It is equipped with spindle lock to provide one wrench accessory change and an LED work light to maximize visibility. The paddle switch design provides enhanced control and maximum material removal when operating in various positions. As an added benefit, ONE-KEY provides the ability to track the die grinder with community tracking and alerts, complete inventory management and smart-equipment technology.

The M18 FUEL Braking Die Grinder with Slide Switch allows users to get more work done with up to 12" of weld bead removed per charge when paired with an M18 REDLITHIUM XC5.0 battery. The 27,000 RPM maximizes material removal rate and allows for continued grinding while in tight spaces. Available with the slide switch, a lock-on design provides users with reduced fatigue during operation. Compatible with 2" accessories, this die grinder features the spindle lock design for one tool accessory change.
