Our take on the Milwaukee M18 Random Orbit Sander

The Milwaukee M18 Random Orbit Sander is a cordless 5-inch sander built for woodworkers who want to prep large cabinets and furniture without a cord dragging across the work. It runs on Milwaukee's M18 battery platform, so it shares packs with the brand's drills, saws and other tools. A variable speed dial spans 7,000 to 12,000 orbits per minute, letting you slow down for fine grits and speed up for heavy stripping. It is a strong pick for anyone already on the M18 system; shoppers without Milwaukee batteries should weigh the cost of a pack and charger against a corded sander.

About the Milwaukee M18 Random Orbit Sander

The M18 5-inch Random Orbit Sander is a cordless sander on the M18 platform. It has a variable speed dial for sanding from 7,000 to 12,000 OPM, with a 3/32-inch orbit diameter.

The 5-inch pad uses hook-and-loop abrasives, so sandpaper changes are quick. REDLINK Intelligence lets the battery and motor communicate to prevent thermal overload during long sessions.

A dust canister and a universal hose adapter are included for dust extraction.

Questions and answers

Does it come with a battery and charger?
No. It is sold as a bare tool, so you need an M18 battery and charger, or an existing M18 kit.
What size sanding discs does it take?
It uses 5-inch hook-and-loop discs, the common size for random orbit sanders.
Can it replace a corded sander?
For most finish and prep work, yes. For long continuous sessions on large projects, a corded unit still runs without battery changes.
What is the variable speed range?
The dial covers 7,000 to 12,000 orbits per minute, from fine finishing to aggressive stripping.
Does it have dust collection?
It has a dust port for a bag or hose; check that the bag or adapter you plan to use fits the port.
Is it worth it over a cheaper corded sander?
If you already own M18 batteries and work away from outlets, the cordless convenience justifies it. Otherwise a corded sander gives similar results for less.
