Product Information

Full details

This Milwaukee M18 FUEL 115mm Angle Grinder is designed for professionals and serious DIYers who need corded grinder performance in a cordless package. Its key benefit is delivering the power of a 1200W corded grinder with the added safety of a 2-second RAPIDSTOP™ disc brake. A potential caveat is the reliance on M18 battery system for operation.
