Our take on the Milwaukee 2904-20 M18 FUEL 1/2" Hammer Drill/Driver, Bare

The Milwaukee 2904-20 is a cordless 1/2-inch hammer drill/driver built on the M18 FUEL platform. Its POWERSTATE brushless motor is rated to drill 2-9/16-inch self-feed bits into dense wood, and the body measures 6.9 inches long, making it one of the shortest drills in its class. AutoStop control mode cuts power when the bit binds, which protects the user's wrist. It is sold as a bare tool, so batteries and a charger are not included and existing M18 owners get the most from it.

About the Milwaukee 2904-20 M18 FUEL 1/2" Hammer Drill/Driver, Bare

The Milwaukee M18 FUEL 1/2" Hammer Drill/Driver is a cordless drill sold as a bare tool. It has a POWERSTATE brushless motor that produces 1400 in-lbs of torque. It can drill 2-9/16" self-feed holes in dense woods. A hammer drill mode is available for drilling into brick, block or concrete.

The tool is 6.9" long, which helps in tight spaces. It has a 1/2" all-metal ratcheting chuck with carbide teeth for grip and bit retention. A mechanical clutch gives consistent driving across a range of fasteners. An LED light helps in low light.

AutoStop Control Mode prevents over-rotation if the bit binds up. A dedicated light on the foot of the tool shows when this protection has been triggered. REDLINK PLUS intelligence protects against overloads, heating and over-discharge. The tool runs on M18 REDLITHIUM batteries, and the XC5.0Ah pack gives the most runtime in its class.
