Our take on the 18V Brushless Cordless Multi-Tool (Tool Only)

The RIDGID R86242B is an 18V brushless oscillating multi-tool sold as a bare tool for people already on the RIDGID 18V battery platform. It runs 0-20,000 OPM with a three-speed selector and variable-speed trigger, and RIDGID claims a 4° oscillation angle for up to 75% faster cutting and 70% reduced vibration. The head is 10% more compact than the previous design, and accessories swap without a wrench. It competes with brushless multi-tools from DeWalt, Milwaukee and Makita on vibration control and speed range; the trade-off is that battery and charger are not included.

About the 18V Brushless Cordless Multi-Tool (Tool Only)

The RIDGID 18V Brushless Oscillating Multi-Tool is a cordless tool for jobsite cutting and sanding. Its brushless motor cuts through hardwood and nail-embedded wood, and is built for strong performance and longer runtime.

It has a 4° oscillation angle and speeds from 0 to 20,000 OPM. A three-speed selector and a variable-speed trigger let you match the speed to the job. The tool reduces vibration by 70% for more control and comfort.

Accessories change without tools. The head is 10% more compact for detailed work and tight spaces. The tool works with all RIDGID 18V batteries. This is the tool only: the battery and charger are sold separately.
