Milwaukee Delivers Corded Performance with M18 FUEL Expansion

Milwaukee Tool continues to deliver industry leading cordless innovation with the expansion of their award winning M18 FUEL line. Each boasting performance that rivals their corded counterparts, the new products will include an M18 FUEL SAWZALL  Reciprocating Saw, M18 FUEL  6-1/2″ Circular Saw, (4) M18 FUEL  High Torque Impact Wrenches and (2) M18 FUEL  4-1/2″ – 5″ Grinders. 

“With unmatched advancements in the motor, battery and electronic technologies, each of the new M18 FUEL products represent breakthrough innovation within our cordless ecosystem.  These tools will provide unprecedented levels of productivity and flexibility for the user,” says Christian Coulis, director of marketing for Milwaukee Tool Corporation. “The performance and durability that these tools bring can only be reached by combining the absolute best technologies with world-class engineering and job-site testing.”

Consistent with the rest of the M18 FUEL line, the new products feature three Milwaukee exclusive innovations – the POWERSTATE Brushless Motor, REDLITHIUM Battery Pack and REDLINK PLUS Intelligence Hardware and Software – to deliver unmatched power, run-time and durability.

The POWERSTATE Brushless Motor works harder, lives longer, and converts energy into power more efficiently.  The POWERSTATE Motor is completely designed, engineered and built by Milwaukee Tool to deliver years of maintenance-free performance with no wearable components, no losses due to vibration and less heat build-up.

REDLINK PLUS Intelligence hardware and software is the most advanced electronic system on the market. It integrates full-circle communication between tool, battery and charger to maintain ideal conditions resulting in peak application performance.

Milwaukee REDLITHIUM XC4.0 batteries provide up to 2X more run-time and recharges than standard Lithium-Ion batteries and deliver best-in-class performance in extreme job-site conditions.  With Milwaukee durability built into each pack, the REDLITHIUM XC4.0 battery operates cooler and performs in climates below 0°F/-18°C with fade free power. A battery fuel gauge also displays remaining charge for less down time on the job.

In addition, all M18 FUEL products include the new multi-voltage charger to allow users to charge all M12 and M18 batteries with one charger.

Available in October of 2013, the new M18 FUEL products are a true testament to Milwaukee’s focus on the user and investment in game changing technology. For more information on M18 FUEL, please visit http://www.milwaukeetool.com/system/m18-fuel.
