Milwaukee Cordless M12 Lithium-Ion Ratchet

Milwaukee® Introduces Most Compact & Powerful Cordless Ratchets

As many of you know I’m a huge fan of Milwaukee tools, not only for their quality and durability, but because I like really the color.  Yup I’m that shallow – I love the RED color!

A few months back Todd and I attended the 2011 Milwaukee Tool Media event where we got a chance to play with some of the latest tool submissions.  Among them was the M12 cordless 1/4″ and 3/8″ Ratchet.

Weighing only 1.9 lbs, this cordless tool is super compact and surpsiringly powerful!   I can see many, many people enjoying the torque of this compact and innovative tool.  I also like the 3/4″ low profile head design  and that I don’t need to set up a compressor or hose to use it.  It definetely has its applications!

Delivering up to 35 in-lbs of torque and 250 RPM, the M12™ Cordless Ratchets is plenty powerful.
