Milwaukee 3403-22 M12 FUEL Drill/Driver Kit vs Milwaukee M12 Fuel Installation Drill Driver

Both are 12V Milwaukee M12 brushless drills, but they are built for different jobs. The 3403-22 is the stronger all-round drill: a 1/2-inch all-metal chuck, 400 in-lb of torque and a 12-setting clutch make it the better pick for drilling into wood, metal and masonry and for driving larger fasteners. The 2505-22 is shorter and lighter with a 3/8-inch chuck and 300 in-lb, so it wins on access and weight for assembly, cabinet work and overhead fastening. Owners of the 3403-22 rate it highly for power and runtime from the included XC4.0 pack; the 2505-22 is the more specialized, compact tool.

• Choose the Milwaukee 3403-22 if you want one 12V drill that handles the widest range of drilling and driving, with a 1/2-inch chuck and more torque.
• Choose the Milwaukee 2505-22 if you mostly drive screws and drill small holes in tight spots and want the shortest, lightest M12 drill.
