Milwaukee Impact Drivers
Milwaukee M12 and M18 Impact Drivers
Milwaukee builds impact drivers on both battery platforms. M18 FUEL models are the full-power choice for lag screws and structural fasteners. M12 FUEL and M12 subcompact brushless drivers trade some power for a shorter, lighter body. The SURGE models in both lines use a hydraulic drive that runs quieter and smoother than a standard impact. The collection also includes M12 and M18 right angle impact drivers, an M18 2-speed model, compact brushless kits, and protective boots.
What to Look For
- M12 or M18. M12 fits tight cabinets and overhead work. M18 drives long fasteners all day.
- SURGE hydraulic. Pick SURGE if noise and vibration matter, such as occupied buildings or long screw runs.
- Right angle. Right angle drivers reach between joists and inside equipment where a pistol grip will not fit.
- Boot. A protective boot guards the housing and keeps the tool from marring finished surfaces.

Milwaukee Impact Drivers FAQ
What is the difference between SURGE and a standard FUEL impact driver?
Both take 1/4" hex bits. A standard FUEL impact driver uses a metal hammer and anvil for maximum driving force. SURGE uses a fluid-filled hydraulic drive, which is quieter and smoother on screws, and is the better match for repetitive fastening.
What warranty comes with a Milwaukee impact driver?
Most Milwaukee electric power tools, including M18 and M12 impact drivers, carry a 5-year limited warranty. Batteries in kits are covered separately, with most M18 and M12 REDLITHIUM packs at 3 years. Registration is not required.
