Milwaukee M18FPD2-0 18V M18 Li-Ion 1/2" Fuel Percussion Drill Body Only

Product Information

For everyone else, I’ve added specifics and gone into detail on the tools, explaining the different upgrades we have seen and more. Where does the Milwaukee Gen 4 naming confusion come from? Fuel is Milwaukee's most up to date brushless range however just being brushless does not make a tool Fuel. There are 3 criteria in play when a tool is given the Fuel stamp of approval. This is explained below Two incidental features that we liked were the built-in work light and the reversible metal belt clip, small features like this on a drill can make life so much simpler. The work light coupled with its compact design allow you to work behind units or appliances where space is tight and light is at a premium. Specific features Milwaukee claim that this drill is not only the most powerful combi drill on the market today, but it is also the most compact combi drill in its class. This heavy-duty Milwaukee drill can be used with a hammer action, rotary or as a screwdriver due to its versatility in applications. It’s a compact tool measuring 197mm, which is lightweight to operate with one hand using the integrated handle. Should you wish to apply more pressure depending on what sort of material you are drilling there is also a detachable handle for two handed operation.

POWERSTATE Brushless Motor: Purposely built for the M18 FUEL 1/2" Hammer Drill to provide Up To 60% More Power than the competitive set For this article we are focusing on Fuel Gen 3 / Milwaukee’s 4th Generation of M18 tools, The M12 tools are currently on their 3rd generation and as such should be named Fuel Gen 3). MIlwaukee’s “Gen 4” Impact Driver Milwaukee M18FID3 – The “Milwaukee Gen 4” Impact Driver (Released 2022/2023 UK)The run time of this Milwaukee drill is optimised by individual battery cell monitoring, all part of the REDLINK Plus technology. It also helps in enhancing the durability. Meanwhile the battery fuel gauge Is a very hand feature, which enables you to see the charging progress by displaying the remaining percentage before it is full.

The performance of Milwaukee drill, is greatly increased thanks to the brushless motor, POWERSTATE motor and the REDLINK battery technology. Brushless drills are usually much quieter to operate, however this Milwaukee drill is pretty noisy. This can be attributed to in part the power that it gives out, but we would have liked something that was a little quieter. The brushless motor does allow you to achieve higher speeds up to 2000rpm to complete whatever the task in a short space of time with plenty of power on tap. This speed results in a higher torque of 135Nm. Before the upgrade to fuel, Milwaukee already had a range of brushless drills and impact drivers. When Fuel was set to release in 2012 Milwaukee reset, calling their new range Fuel Gen 1. However, fans dubbed the release as Milwaukee’s 2nd gen (Milwaukee’s Second generation of tools). Fans have since named Milwaukee’s 2016 release as “Gen 3” and now this year’s (2022) release “Gen 4”. In the UK Milwaukee’s release schedule is around 6 months behind the USA. If you are on YouTube at all you’ll probably have noticed the hype in America around Milwaukee Gen 4 over the last few months. Watching the videos demonstrating the tools I couldn’t help but think to myself, what is Milwaukee gen 4? Which Set is gen 3? What gen tool do I have? Please Note: Milwaukee’s new M12 Tools were released around the same time as the 4th generation of M18 tools, this caused some content creators to lump all of Milwaukee’s new releases into “Gen 4”.
