The Milwaukee M18 2648-20 is a cordless 5-inch random orbit sander that runs on the M18 battery platform. It reaches up to 12,000 orbits per minute with a 7,000 to 12,000 OPM variable-speed dial, so it removes stock close to a corded sander while staying free of a cord. A dust canister with filter and a universal hose adapter keep dust at the tool. It suits M18 owners doing finish work and light stock removal; it is sold as a bare tool, so batteries and charger are separate.

Owners treat it as a serious cordless sander that removes material like a corded unit and fits the M18 system. Most praise the speed and dust collection; the common complaints are the bare-tool packaging and the weight with a large battery.
The Milwaukee M18 Cordless 5-inch Random Orbit Sander (model 2648-20) is a cordless random orbit sander for finish sanding, surface prep and material removal on wood and similar surfaces. It runs on the M18 battery platform and is sold as a bare tool, so an M18 battery and charger are needed.
It has a variable speed range of 7,000 to 12,000 orbits per minute (OPM). The 3/32 inch orbit diameter and 5 inch pad suit general-purpose sanding. A slide switch and variable speed control operate it. Milwaukee notes runtime of up to 35 minutes on an M18 REDLITHIUM XC 3.0 battery pack.
A quick-change hook-and-loop pad makes sandpaper changes simple. A dust canister with filter collects dust at the tool. A universal hose adapter and an extension adapter are included for connecting to a vacuum or dust extraction. The sander weighs 2.7 pounds.
