Model Number: MIL348520
PNEUMATIC PERFORMANCE WITHOUT THE HOSES
Eliminating the air hose is about more than just convenience; it is about reclaiming shop efficiency and mobility. The Milwaukee M12 FUEL 1/4" Right Angle Die Grinder (3485-20) is engineered to outperform pneumatic competitors while offering the surgical control required for intricate metalwork. By integrating a redesigned POWERSTATE Brushless Motor, this tool delivers 0.4 HP—a 50% power increase over air-powered alternatives—maintaining high torque under load to prevent the bogging down common in previous cordless generations. The 4-mode speed control allows technicians to dial in the exact RPM for everything from heavy deburring with 2" cutting wheels to fine surface prep with 3" sanding accessories, ensuring optimal accessory life and professional-grade finishes.
- / POWERSTATE™ Brushless Motor: Generates 0.4 HP output to deliver greater performance than 1/2 HP pneumatic grinders.
- / 4-Mode Speed Control: Features dedicated settings for 6,000, 10,000, 15,000, and 20,000 RPM to match abrasive requirements.
- / Shadowless Tri-LED Lighting: Maximizes visibility in dark engine bays and chassis components by eliminating work-surface shadows.
- / Single-Wrench Spindle Lock: Integrated locking mechanism allows for faster accessory swaps with a single wrench, reducing downtime.
- / REDLINK PLUS™ Intelligence: Ensures maximum performance and protects against overloads, heating, and over-discharge.
