Designed for the unique environments that linemen work in, the M18™ FUEL™ 1-1/2 in lineman magnetic drill drills faster than the number one corded competitor delivers the strongest magnetic hold on 1/4 in steel providing a safer drilling environment in this material and drills over (40) 13/16 in holes per charge. The M18™ FUEL™ 1-1/2 in lineman magnetic drill delivers safer drilling on 1/4 in steel by providing the industry's strongest holding force on this material. By utilizing permanent magnets, the magnetic base operates without electricity, ensuring that the magnet does not deactivate if the battery is drained. Equipped with auto-stop lift-off detection, power to the motor is automatically cut if excess rotational motion is detected while drilling. Powered by a Milwaukee® PowerState™ brushless motor both drills are faster than their corded counterparts and deliver the same 1-1/2 in annular cutter capacity. Redlink PLUS™ intelligence is the most advanced electronic system on the market, preventing damage to the tool and battery caused by overloading or overheating. REDLITHIUM™ XC5.0 batteries provide Over (40) 13/16 in holes in 1/4 in steel, while delivering the most durable pack construction on the market and Over 2x more recharges than the leading competitor.
