Our take on the Milwaukee M12 FUEL 1/2-in. Right Angle Impact Wrench, Tool Only (2565-20)

The Milwaukee M12 FUEL 1/2-in. Right Angle Impact Wrench (2565-20) is a compact cordless wrench built for fasteners a pistol-grip tool cannot reach. Its 2.2-inch head profile and 220 ft-lbs of nut-busting torque let it work in engine bays, under vehicles and around packed hardware. It runs on Milwaukee's M12 12V battery platform and is sold as a bare tool. It suits mechanics and DIYers who already own M12 batteries and need reach more than raw power; full-size 1/2-inch impact wrenches deliver far more torque but will not fit where this one does.

Pros
  • 2.2-inch head fits spaces a standard impact wrench cannot
  • 220 ft-lbs of nut-busting torque for its size
  • Right-angle body keeps the tool clear of obstructions
  • Runs on the existing M12 12V battery platform
  • FUEL brushless motor and multi-speed drive control
Cons
  • Bare tool: no battery or charger included
  • 220 ft-lbs is modest next to full-size 1/2-inch impact wrenches
  • Right-angle head limits leverage and grip in some spots
  • M12 batteries drain faster under heavy fastening loads

About the Milwaukee M12 FUEL 1/2-in. Right Angle Impact Wrench, Tool Only (2565-20)

The Milwaukee M12 FUEL 1/2-in. Right Angle Impact Wrench (2565-20) is a cordless impact wrench for removing and fastening bolts in tight spaces. It delivers up to 220 ft-lbs. of torque. The 2.2 inch head profile and long, narrow body let it reach into engine bays, under vehicles and around obstructions without stacked extensions or universals.

It has a POWERSTATE brushless motor and REDLINK PLUS intelligence, which protects against overload, overheating and over-discharge. The 1/2 inch friction ring anvil makes socket changes quick. A built-in LED light helps in dark work areas, and a rubber overmold adds grip.

The 4-Mode Drive Control has modes 1 through 3 that step up speed, with a top no-load speed of 3,000 RPM and up to 3,600 impacts per minute. In mode 4, Auto Shut-Off in forward limits torque to no more than 15 ft-lbs. to help prevent over-tightening. Bolt Removal mode in reverse slows the tool once the fastener breaks loose. The tool is sold as a bare tool and runs on Milwaukee M12 REDLITHIUM battery packs.
