M18 FUEL™ 1/2" Mid-Torque Impact Wrench w/ Friction Ring
M18 FUEL™ 1/2" Mid-Torque Impact Wrench w/ Friction Ring
2962-20
The Milwaukee 2962-20 M18 FUEL™ 1/2" Mid-Torque Impact Wrench w/ Friction Ring is designed to be the go-to everyday impact wrench for professionals who need strong fastening power without stepping up to a bulky high-torque tool. It sits in the “sweet spot” of Milwaukee’s impact lineup, balancing torque, size, and control.
Powered by a POWERSTATE™ brushless motor, this tool delivers up to 650 ft-lbs of nut-busting torque and 550 ft-lbs of fastening torque, making it capable of handling most automotive and mechanical fasteners including lug nuts, suspension hardware, and medium-duty construction bolts.
Its compact 6" body length gives it excellent access in tight engine bays, wheel wells, and structural spaces where larger high-torque impacts become impractical. Despite its smaller size, it still delivers enough power for the majority of real-world fastening jobs, reducing the need to constantly switch to a heavier tool.
The 4-Mode DRIVE CONTROL system provides selectable speed and torque settings, including an auto shut-off mode to prevent over-tightening and a bolt removal mode that slows RPM after breakaway to improve control and reduce dropped fasteners. Tri-LED lighting improves visibility around the anvil in dark work environments.
REDLINK PLUS™ intelligence continuously protects the tool and battery from overload, overheating, and over-discharge, ensuring consistent performance under load and extending tool life.
