- Does the hammer drill work on concrete and brick?
- Yes. It has a hammer mode for masonry in addition to drill and drive modes, so it handles light concrete, brick and block with the right bit.
- Are the batteries compatible with other Milwaukee tools?
- Yes. The two 18V Li-Ion batteries fit the whole M18 platform, including Milwaukee's saws, lights and other FUEL tools.
- What comes in the box?
- The 1/2-inch hammer drill, 1/4-inch impact driver, 4-1/2/5-inch grinder, two 18V batteries, a charger and an anti-vibration side handle for the grinder.
- Is this kit worth it over buying the tools separately?
- For someone who needs all three tools, the kit bundles the batteries and charger and usually works out better than buying each tool with its own battery. If you only need a drill, buy that alone.
- Can the grinder use both 4-1/2-inch and 5-inch wheels?
- Yes. It accepts both wheel sizes, so you can run standard 4-1/2-inch discs or larger 5-inch wheels for deeper cuts.
- How does it compare with DeWalt or Makita kits?
- Milwaukee's FUEL line is known for high torque and jobsite durability, DeWalt's 20V MAX XR is similarly strong, and Makita's 18V LXT is often lighter. Pick the platform whose other tools you already own.
