Professional Tool Reviews for Pros
There aren’t many areas where Milwaukee’s cordless lineup isn’t deep, but cordless sanders are one of them. That’s beginning to change as the Milwaukee M18 Orbital 1/4-Sheet Sander joins the Random Orbit Sander in an expansion.
Joining the rest of Milwaukee’s M18 line, this sander was designed to perform as well as a corded sander without the annoyances that come with corded tools.
There are several features that Milwaukee hopes will be on your radar when you consider the M18 1/4-sheet sander. First and foremost, the 11,000-13,000 OPM variable speed dial allows for increased sanding power and more control.
When you use a 5.0Ah battery, expect to get around 40 minutes of continuous runtime.
Milwaukee tells us the M18 sheet sander’s integrated dust collection bag gathers up to 95% of the dust output you create while in use. It also features a universal hose adapter, so you can hook up a vacuum hose for even better dust containment.
Furthermore, it keeps vibration to a minimum, which avoids discomfort when you’re sanding surfaces for a long period of time.
A two-step clamp system helps simplify the process of changing and securing your sandpaper.
The Milwaukee 2649-20 has a retail price of $119 as a bare tool. It includes a 5-year manufacturer warranty we expect it to land at Milwaukee retailers starting June 2022.
