M18 FUEL GEN-3 18V Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 1/2 in. Compact Impact Wrench with Friction Ring (Tool-Only)

this compact impact is the perfect fit to go with all my other milwaukee tools! i have so many milwaukee m18 brushless tools it ain't even funny but that little 1/2 inch dude is the best thing for my arsenal i find myself grabbing it more than i do the other 2 full size 1200 ft lb that i have i highly recommend this with a 6.0 or 9.0 ah battery

Very strong fit anywhere you can do any work the m18 compact impact 1/2 inch are a good investment

Amazing product with lots of power. The leds are a great add on for finding the bolt in the dark

Is perfect for my job, thank you for the wonderful tools.

Powerful, light & compact. Fits in all the areas you'll ever need. Love this stubby.

Its a really nice impact, perfect balance between size, weight & power. Working in Power line construction, we have to switch between a couple different sockets. I got the friction ring. Its too time consuming and annoying to use a dent pin, especially in rubber gloves and sleeves. The 3(4) in one lineman impact socket is too heavy for the friction ring. When aloft or climbing it will pop off. Lineman need a small impact with the 7/16 quick connect chuck.

There is not a lot that needs to be said about this little gem in the latest Milwaukee line up. Just as it's predecessors, it's down right tough and now small enough to get in the tight areas and really help a guy out. With the exception of some really tough nuts, this little guy is gonna get the job done for you. Love the light weight at only 3.9 lbs. Also noteworthy are the new 3 LED lights that which really help ya see what you're doing. I won the two bigger impacts as well, but suspect I'll be giving this one first shot at making life easier on a mechanic. I added the rubber boot to it to help protect it and give it a little cushion when it bumps against things.

It's simple. There are Milwaukee tools. And there's everything else. This is a professional's tool. Mechanic, carpenter (lag bolts in concrete like butter), home pro. This is that kind of impact wrench. I've been using Milwaukee tools for 40 years. This one is one of the best in my shop. Battery powered like it's a nuclear power plant. The finest impact wrench on the planet.

The M18 Fuel Friction Ring 1/2” Impact Wrench is a solid tool with plenty to offer. The two 5 AH batteries that are included in the kit yield lots of power and some decent work times between charges. A Milwaukee combo charger that will handle M12 as well as M18 batteries is also included in this kit. Batteries charge rather quickly. The charger glows orange while the battery is charging changing to green when the battery is fully charged and ready for use. The manual is easy to read and describes product usage rather well. The weight of the Milwaukee M18 Fuel Impact Wrench is just right and the tool is easy to handle. It’s well balanced. It fits into somewhat tighter places than others and provides a more than necessary amount of torque. There are 4 speed/torque settings. I used the highest setting. I tried the Milwaukee Impact Wrench out putting together a work bench, first assembling the legs and then attaching them to the oak work bench top using lag bolts. It wasn’t much of a challenge for the Milwaukee but the project allowed me to get to know the thing. I also used it to remove the blade from my oldest mower. The blade was off in a jiff and I didn’t need to use a blade lock. This thing would be wonderful for assembling one of those kit Quonset style metal buildings. Such a project almost requires that you own a Milwaukee ½” Impact Wrench. My Milwaukee has a friction ring, my first experience with that. I have different branded sets of sockets and surprisingly, the sets seemed to fit differently. A Husky set of deep sockets that I got at Home Depot seemed to work the best. I had difficulty removing a different (but name) brand ½” drive socket that was 9/16” size. Maybe it was the newness of the tool but the Husky came right off. Go figure. There are some little features that seem gimmicky but aren’t. The three LED lights really light up the work area. One will never again be enough. Setting the Speed/Torque to 4 sets the tool to the equivalent of hand tightening torque. Surprisingly handy! Great if you’re torqueing things. The battery has four lights that indicate the level of charge/remaining power. Now if I can only remember to check the levels. All in all, this is a well-designed, powerful, and easy to use tool that delivers. I went a long time before getting a battery powered impact wrench and now can’t live without one. I plan on getting a lot of use out of this one.

Milwaukee M18 FUEL GEN 3 18-Volt Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 1/2 in. Compact Impact Wrench with Friction Ring Kit – 2855-22 This fully adjustable torque 1/2-inch drive impact wrench is a Great Addition to the Milwaukee M18 line. It does not matter if you are using it in the Automotive Industry or in the Construction trades. Having 4 torque options from "finger tight" up to 250 ft lbs. depending on which of the settings you choose is a great improvement over previous battery or pneumatic impact wrenches, previously the standards of most trades. The " drive by feel method " previously used, caused stripped lug nuts or over torqued attachments, broken fasteners and even pulling the threads out of the bolting or fastening surfaces. That should all end, if you just use the chart and the attachment number selection on this impact and then a torque wrench, if the torque is a critical component of your job. Milwaukee has also made it easier to use this tool in close quarters, by including three bright LEDs at the front of the tool, actuated by the trigger. Milwaukee not only includes the adjustable impact wrench in this kit but the include the options you need. They include: two M18 5-ah batteries, an M18 - M12 110-volt battery charger and the instruction manuals for both in a fitted blow molded plastic case. The chart for your impacts torque settings is included in the instruction manual for the impact wrench. This new generation of brushless impact wrenches still has the lighter body and shorter impact head, so you can get into those tight quarters need in all trades these days.
