Milwaukee M18 FUEL 4-1/2" / 5" Variable Speed Braking Angle Grinder M18 2889-20 + FREE M18 XC6.0 Battery Pack 48-11-1865

CORDED PERFORMANCE WITH VARIABLE SPEED PRECISION

The 2889-20 represents a significant leap in cordless grinding technology, bridging the gap between the mobility of the M18 platform and the raw torque of an 11A corded unit. By integrating a 5-setting variable speed dial, this grinder moves beyond simple material removal to specialized applications like stainless steel finishing and delicate surface prep where heat management is critical. The POWERSTATE™ brushless motor maintains consistent RPM under load, ensuring that even when pushed through heavy-duty cutting or grinding cycles, the tool does not bog down. This mechanical efficiency, coupled with REDLINK PLUS™ intelligence, maximizes the professional ROI by preventing motor damage from overloading and extending the service life of the tool in high-production environments.

• / 11A Corded Power: Delivers the sustained torque required for heavy-duty grinding and cutting without the tether of a power cord or the need for generators.
• / 5-Speed Variable Dial: Provides 3,500 to 8,500 RPM control, allowing users to match the speed to the accessory and material for superior finish quality and reduced abrasive wear.
• / RAPIDSTOP™ Braking System: Enhances jobsite safety by stopping most wheels in under two seconds, allowing for quicker tool set-downs and reduced risk during kickbacks.
• / Tool-Free Guard & Accessory Changes: Features a FIXTEC nut and tool-free guard adjustments to minimize downtime when switching between grinding and cutting tasks.

UNRIVALED ENERGY DENSITY AND THERMAL MANAGEMENT

When managing a massive fleet of M18 assets, the battery chemistry is the primary factor in tool longevity and jobsite throughput. The Milwaukee 48-11-1865 HIGH OUTPUT XC6.0 pack isn't just a capacity upgrade; it's a structural overhaul of the lithium-ion cell arrangement designed to sustain higher current draws without the heat-related degradation that plagues standard packs. This is a critical investment for contractors looking to maximize their ROI on high-performance brushless tools, providing the thermal headroom needed for sustained, heavy-duty applications.

• / 50% MORE POWER: Specifically engineered to provide the massive amperage required to fully utilize POWERSTATE brushless motor technology.
• / ADVANCED COOL-RUNNING TECH: Operates 50% cooler than previous XC models, allowing you to push tools harder through back-to-back cuts without thermal shutdown.
• / EXTREME CLIMATE DURABILITY: Optimized for sub-zero environments, delivering reliable fade-free power in temperatures below 0°F (-18°C).
• / INTELLIGENT COMMUNICATION: REDLINK hardware ensures the battery and tool work in tandem to prevent overload damage and over-discharge.
• / RUGGED CHASSIS: Impact-resistant housing designed to survive jobsite drops and resist common industrial chemicals/solvents.
