Our take on the Milwaukee M12 FUEL 12V Lithium-Ion Cordless Oscillating Multi-Tool
The Milwaukee M12 FUEL Oscillating Multi-Tool is a 12-volt cordless tool for cutting, sanding, scraping and grout removal in tight spots. Its brushless FUEL motor and REDLINK electronics give it more power and runtime than most 12V multi-tools, and the tool-free blade change and low vibration are its main draws. It suits trim carpenters, remodelers and DIYers who want a compact tool that fits in a pouch and works overhead. Against 18V multi-tools it trades some raw cutting speed for size and weight; owners say it handles light and medium jobs well but bogs down in thick hardwood or long flooring cuts.
- Brushless FUEL motor with REDLINK overload protection
- Tool-free blade and accessory changes
- Compact body fits in a tool pouch
- Low vibration and controllable speed dial
- Runs on the M12 battery platform

Questions and answers
- Is the M12 FUEL multi-tool powerful enough for remodeling work?
- For trim, drywall, PVC and light flooring cuts, yes. In thick hardwood or long continuous cuts it is slower than an 18V multi-tool.
- Does it come with batteries?
- It is sold as a bare tool in most configurations, so batteries and a charger are separate unless a kit is specified. It runs on any M12 battery.
- How does it compare with the older M12 multi-tool?
- The FUEL version adds a brushless motor, more power, lower vibration and faster blade changes over the older brushed model.
- What blades fit it?
- It uses standard Milwaukee OMT-compatible blades and accessories, including other brands that fit the OMT interface.
- Is it good for sanding?
- Yes, with a sanding pad and sheets it handles corner and detail sanding well, though it is not a replacement for a random orbital sander on large surfaces.
