Details
The Milwaukee M18 FUEL™ 4-1/2" / 5" Variable Speed Braking Grinder (model 2888-20) is a cordless angle grinder with a paddle switch and no-lock design. This is a bare tool — the M18™ battery and charger are sold separately. It runs on the M18™ system and is compatible with all M18™ batteries.
What it does well
- RAPIDSTOP™ brake stops most wheels in less than 2 seconds for faster, safer wheel changes.
- Variable speed dial offers 5 settings between 3,500 and 8,500 RPM for greater control across more applications.
- POWERSTATE™ brushless motor drives up to 8,500 RPM to handle tough grinding and cutting jobs.
- Tool-free guard adjustment and REDLINK PLUS™ intelligence speed up setup and protect the tool under load.
Is this the right grinder for you?
This paddle-switch, no-lock grinder suits pros who want maximum control and built-in safety: the variable-speed dial lets you dial back RPM for delicate work or run wide open for heavy stock removal, and the RAPIDSTOP™ brake shortens downtime between cuts. Because it ships as a bare tool, choose this model if you already own M18™ batteries and a charger; otherwise pick a kit.
