Milwaukee Electric Tool Corporation is expanding its Lithium-ion system with the new Milwaukee M18 Compact Impact Wrench in 3/8-inch and 1/2-inch models. The new additions to the M18 line set the industry standard for power, speed and run-time in the compact impact wrench category.


Featuring 2,200 in-lbs of torque, the 2652-22 is up to 20% more powerful than any other model in its class. The M18 1/2″ Compact Impact Wrench is up to 40% faster and delivers 5X longer run-time than the competition. To achieve superior socket retention, the tool has a 1/2″ anvil with detent pin. This impact wrench is a more compact tool that shaves off some of the weight and power of the new Milwaukee FUEL Impact Wrenches.

“Because of advances in technology, the M18 Compact Impact Wrenches do not sacrifice speed for power,” says Rick Gambaccini, Sr. Product Manager-Cordless of Milwaukee Electric Tool Corporation. “These tools deliver more power, run longer and get the job done faster.”

The 2651-22 3/8″ Compact Impact Wrench also sets the standard in its category in fastening speed, power and run-time. Additionally, the 2651-22 has a 3/8″anvil with friction ring for quick and easy one-handed socket changes to increase productivity.
Backed by a 5yr/2000 charge warranty the new Milwaukee 18V XC High Capacity LITHIUM-ION technology features Overload Protection and a Temperature Management System to provide maximum tool life and longer run-time.

With the addition of the New Compact Impact Wrenches, the M18 Cordless system continues to grow and provide innovative solutions. With leading LITHIUM-ION Technology, Milwaukee will continue to build this platform to offer industry leading balance, power, and ergonomics.
