Perform mechanical repairs on overhead cranes. During runway replacement these grinders receive hours of abuse in dusty, extreme temperature areas.

Was light and easy to get in tight places

This is a great great grinder. Plenty of power ( I was using a 5.0ah battery) adjustable and removable guard. I was able to put on cut off wheel and wire brush with ease. Another Milwaukee cordless tool I was glad i added to the toolbox

You can’t go wrong with Milwaukee tools. Powerful, long lasting battery and the build quality is unmatched.

I wish the Safety switch was a bit bigger Becouse guys who acually are working wear gloves and it is hard to find it.

I work as a mechanic for a fairly large city and use it almost on a daily basis. Performs great and gets the job done every time
Kaylin Hintz (verified owner) –
Works awesome! Doesn’t power out like the cheaper 4 brush one. Would be nice to have a variable speed paddle switch but other than than that it’s awesome!

I love the M18 Fuel family of tools. This grinder is a great addition to my tools and “no more” dealing with extension cords.
Diamond Skiles (verified owner) –
The first one I bought months ago did not work right, it kept stalling and smoking out of the box. I tried to “break” it in but no luck. No worries though Milwaukee has a great warranty. I paid nothing to send it back and I’m return got a brand new one sent to me. It works great! It is up to par with a corded grinder and nothing negative to say. Can be heavier though with a big 5amphr battery which you will need for medium or larger jobs.

I use this grinder for sanding / grinding / zip cutting / paint and rust removal. I like the large on and off paddle switch. It’s nice and compact. Has a lot of power. I wish the batteries weren’t so expensive.
