Milwaukee M18 FUEL 4-1/2" / 5" Variable Speed Braking Angle Grinder Paddle Switch No-Lock M18 2888-20
Model Number: MIL288820
CORDED PERFORMANCE WITH UNMATCHED VARIABLE SPEED PRECISION
The 2888-20 represents a significant leap in cordless grinding technology, bridging the gap between the mobility of the M18 platform and the sustained torque of an 11A corded unit. By integrating a 5-speed dial, Milwaukee allows for precise material removal rates, whether you are polishing stainless steel at lower RPMs to prevent discoloration or hogging out welds at the maximum 8,500 RPM. The POWERSTATE™ brushless motor is engineered to maintain speed under heavy load, ensuring that the tool doesn't bog down during deep cuts or aggressive grinding. From a mechanical standpoint, the inclusion of the RAPIDSTOP™ brake isn't just a safety feature; it's a productivity enhancer, allowing for immediate tool set-down and faster transitions between tasks.
- / 5-Speed Dial Control: Optimized for applications ranging from 3,500 to 8,500 RPM, providing the versatility to handle delicate finishing and heavy-duty grinding.
- / RAPIDSTOP™ Braking System: Enhances jobsite safety by stopping most wheels in under two seconds, significantly reducing the risk of accidental contact.
- / 11A Corded Power Equivalent: The POWERSTATE™ Brushless motor delivers the sustained power required for the most demanding cutting and grinding applications.
- / Tool-Free Accessory Changes: Features integrated guard adjustments and accessory changes to minimize downtime and maximize on-tool efficiency.
