![]() The drills deliver a bump-up in max torque, and a faster max low speed and slower max high speed compared to the outgoing model. To sum things up, Milwaukee is updating their M18 compact brushless drill and launching an all-new compact brushless hammer drill. I’m a bit surprised that Milwaukee didn’t follow the trend and call this a subcompact cordless power tool, but its specs seem to do enough talking. Overall, they look to be quite the upgrade over the outgoing model. The new model Milwaukee M18 brushless drills also have a new mechanical clutch, for “wider range of torque settings and improved fastening performance.” They also sport a new chuck design for “improved bit retention and increased durability.” That brushless model delivers 725 in-lbs max torque, measures 7″ long, and weighs 3.05 lbs without battery.Ĭompared to the 2902, the new 3602 compact brushless hammer drill is not as powerful but is considerably smaller and lighter. There is a brushless hammer drill (2902) that’s a step down from the M18 Fuel model, but it’s not anywhere as compact as this model. We also have for the first time an M18 compact brushless hammer drill. It’s also slightly lighter, at 2.3 lbs compared to 2.45 lbs, for new and older tool-only cordless drills, respectively. The compact drill length has been shrunk from 6.5″ to 5.7″, a reduction of about 12.3%. ![]() The differences are small enough that we can’t get the full picture from on-paper technical specs. This does have the potential for higher application speeds where higher torque is needed, but also slightly slower low torque high-speed applications. The new models are slightly faster in the low end (550 vs 500 RPM), and slightly slower in the high end (1700 vs 1800 RPM). The outgoing compact brushless drill/driver, model 2801, delivers 500 in-lbs max torque and has 0-500 and 0-1800 speed ranges.
