Our take on the Milwaukee M12 FUEL Hammer Drill & Impact Driver Combo Kit (3497-22)

The Milwaukee M12 FUEL 3497-22 combo pairs a 1/2-inch hammer drill (3404-20) with a 1/4-inch hex impact driver (3453-20) on Milwaukee's 12V platform. Both tools use POWERSTATE brushless motors and REDLINK PLUS intelligence, and the kit includes two CP2.0 batteries, a charger and a contractor bag. The appeal is size: this is Milwaukee's most compact 12V line, built for overhead and tight-space work where an 18V drill is awkward. Against 18V combos it gives up raw torque and runtime, so it suits pros and serious DIYers doing light drilling, fastening and masonry work rather than heavy framing.

Best forElectricians, HVAC and plumbing techs working overhead or in tight spacesCabinet, fixture and finish installationLight drilling in wood, metal and masonryDIYers who want pro-grade 12V tools without 18V bulk
Pros
  • Compact, lightweight 12V bodies for tight and overhead work
  • Brushless POWERSTATE motors on both tools
  • Hammer mode handles light masonry drilling
  • Two CP2.0 batteries and a charger included
  • Contractor bag keeps the kit together
Cons
  • 12V platform limits torque and runtime versus 18V combos
  • CP2.0 batteries are small; heavy use drains them fast
  • Hammer function is for light masonry only, not concrete anchors at scale
  • Chuck and hex driver cover different jobs, so neither is a full-size tool

  • Battery runtimeCriticisedThe included CP2.0 packs are small and drain fast during sustained drilling or driving.
  • PowerMixedBrushless power is smooth and adequate for install work, but users note it trails 18V tools on torque.
  • Hammer modeMixedHammer drilling works for light masonry, but owners say it is not a substitute for a full-size rotary hammer.

Questions and answers

Is this kit enough for concrete drilling?
The hammer drill handles light masonry, such as small holes in brick or block. For repeated or large-diameter concrete holes, a corded or 18V rotary hammer is the better tool.
How does it compare with an 18V combo kit?
It is smaller and lighter, which helps overhead and in tight spaces. An 18V kit gives more torque and longer runtime for heavy drilling and framing.
What comes in the box?
The 3404-20 hammer drill, the 3453-20 impact driver, two M12 REDLITHIUM CP2.0 batteries, an M12 charger and a contractor bag.
Can I use my other M12 batteries with these tools?
Yes. Both tools run on the M12 battery platform, so other M12 packs fit, and higher-capacity packs add runtime.
Is the impact driver good for self-tapping screws?
Yes. The 1/4-inch hex driver is built for fastening and self-tapping screw work, and its compact body fits into cabinets and fixtures.
