About This Product
The Milwaukee M18 FUEL 1/2 in. Compact Impact Wrench with Friction Ring is the most compact in its class, delivering users the most access in tight spaces, up to 250 ft./lbs. of nut-busting torque, and maximum workspace visibility. This battery-powered impact wrench measures only 4.9 in. L with a POWERSTATE Brushless motor to provide the power to remove stubborn fasteners, even in confined spaces. The Milwaukee 1/2 in. impact wrench has tri-LEDs that surround the anvil to deliver users brighter light with fewer shadows. 4-Mode DRIVE CONTROL offers greater precision with a range of pre-set RPM and IPM levels, selectable from a single button on the tool. By selecting Mode 4, AUTO SHUT-OFF control applies no more than 20 ft./lbs. of torque for hand-tight fastening applications to prevent overtightening. Mode 4 also features Bolt Removal Control delivers full torque output, then decreases RPMs once the bolt is loosened to prevent fastener drops. REDLINK PLUS Intelligence electronics make these controls possible while ensuring maximum performance, protecting the tool against overloads, over-heating, and over-discharge.

Questions & Answers
Very disappointed - this M18 compact impact wrench only has 250 ft-lbs of torque, but the M12 Stubby impact wrench has 550 ft-lbs of torque(!)
Why does this M18 Fuel Impact Wrench have only 250 ft-lb but the M12 Fuel Stubby has 550 ft-lb? When is there an update to have an M18 Fuel Compact Impact Wrench with similar or better torque?
The M18 Fuel Compact Impact Wrenches (like the 2855 series) are optimized for size and control in tight spaces, not maximum torque. They’re meant for tasks where a mid-torque or high-torque wrench would be overkill. The M12 Fuel Stubby (2555 series) is a specialty tool designed to deliver maximum torque in the smallest form factor, so it pushes the limits of the M12 platform for niche applications like automotive work
Which is a better tool for an average home owner- 1/2 inch or 3/8 inch?
How long is Milwaukee warranty on it
Hi, Eddie. The M18 FUEL GEN-3 18V Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 3/8 in. Compact Impact Wrench with Friction Ring comes with the 5-Year Limited Warranty, which covers products defective in material or workmanship through Milwaukee Tool Services.
In add it says you can get m18 gen 3 18v compact with purchase of what
Will this ttake off and put on tires
It should without issue, I don't own this exact tool but I have a brushed 18v 1/4" hex bit driver that will take off lug nuts with a 1/4" hex X 3/8" socket adapter just fine in most cases. This tool has more power so it should just fine.
Yes . Used it on my Duramax 2500.
Can the 3/8” drive be used with 1/2” sockets?
Will need an impact rated adapter that reduces from 1/2 to 3/8 see part# 49-66-6725
Not unless you have a 3/8 to 1/2 adapter
Is this gen 3 ?
Hi, Milo. The 2854-20 was launched in 2020!
