Key Features
Tight-Space Access
The compact 3-3/4 inch head is the whole point of this right angle drill/driver. It gets into cabinet corners, joist bays, and other spots where a standard drill simply will not fit.
Controlled Fastening
With up to 100 in-lbs of torque and an electronic clutch with 11 settings plus drill mode, you get better control when driving screws without overdriving into finished material.
Secure Bit Changes
The 3/8 inch single sleeve ratcheting chuck with spindle lock helps hold bits securely and makes swaps quicker when you are moving between drilling and fastening.
Overview The Milwaukee 12 Volt Cordless Lithium-Ion 3/8 Inch Right Angle Drill/Driver, model 2415-20, is built for drilling and fastening where a full-size drill cannot physically reach. This is a right angle drill/driver designed for tight-space drilling and fastening. If you work in cabinets, between studs, under sinks, inside mechanical chases, or anywhere clearance is limited, this tool solves a real problem instead of just giving you another drill to carry. Milwaukee built this M12 right angle drill/driver around a compact 3-3/4 inch head, which is what makes it useful on the job. That short head lets you get onto fasteners and drill points in corners and recesses that would force a standard drill driver off-angle. It still delivers up to 100 in-lbs of torque with a variable speed trigger and a 0-800 RPM range, so it is not just about fit, it is about usable control for everyday installation and service work. The clutch setup matters here. Instead of giving you one-speed, one-feel operation, Milwaukee uses an electronic clutch with 11 settings plus drill mode. In plain terms, that gives you better repeatability when driving screws into wood, plastic, and light-duty materials, especially when you are working one-handed or in awkward positions. The built-in LED indicator for clutch position also makes setup easier when you are moving between tasks and do not want to guess where the setting is. The 3/8 inch single sleeve ratcheting chuck with spindle lock is another practical upgrade. It helps with bit retention and makes changes simpler when you are swapping between twist bits, driver bits, and small accessories. On a compact tool like this, chuck grip matters because tight access usually means less room to brace the tool. Milwaukee clearly designed this part for real use, not just to hit a spec sheet. Jobsite practicality is strong for a tool in this class. The extended paddle switch is easier to use from different hand positions than a conventional trigger-only layout, which is a big help when the tool is sideways, upside down, or wedged into a cavity. The built-in LED light helps when you are drilling in deep cabinets, under counters, or in dim service spaces. There is also an onboard fuel gauge, so if you are already on the M12 platform you can keep better track of charge status and avoid climbing into a tight spot with a nearly dead battery. This Milwaukee 12 Volt Cordless Lithium-Ion 3/8 Inch Right Angle Drill/Driver uses the Milwaukee M12 battery system. That makes it a smart bare-tool buy for anyone already invested in M12 batteries and chargers. Batteries and charger are sold separately with this 2415-20 bare tool, so it is best suited for users who already run M12 gear or who want to add a dedicated right angle drill to an existing Milwaukee cordless setup. Who should buy it? Electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs, cabinet installers, maintenance crews, remodelers, and serious DIY users will get the most out of it. If most of your drilling and fastening happens out in the open, a standard drill/driver may still be the better primary tool. But if your work regularly puts you in confined spaces, the Milwaukee 2415-20 earns its spot fast because access is the feature that saves time, frustration, and rework.
