Milwaukee® Combines Power and Efficiency to Sand the Toughest Materials

MILWAUKEE, WI- Milwaukee Tool continues to drive innovation for the professional trades with the introduction of the new M12 FUEL™ 3" Random Orbital Sander and 3” Mesh Sanding Discs with POWERGRID™ Tear Resistant Mesh. Providing precise removal for spot sanding, more control and maneuverability, and over 80% dust collection.

Featuring an orbital sanding motion with a 3/32" diameter, the new M12 FUEL™ 3" Random Orbital Sander delivers consistent removal rates and stain-grade surface finishes, providing precise removal capabilities for spot sanding to professionals. The compact pad size allows for delicate sanding applications, such as trim installation, railings, or other refinishing tasks that require controlled removal. The variable-speed trigger, equipped with a lock-on button, offers 4-speed settings ranging from 10k to 4k, delivering controlled removal in various materials. The optional sponge pad enables the abrasive to contour to the work surface when dealing with more complex trim profiles, while the pad saver prevents excessive heat buildup, extending the life of the backing pad. To enhance user experience further, an adjustable on/off LED light illuminates the work area, providing 270 degrees of lighting for maximum visibility on the worksite.

Milwaukee’s new sander is ergonomically designed to provide greater access in hard-to-reach areas, delivering more control to the user. The lightweight design, weighing only 2lbs, offers unmatched maneuverability and reduces user fatigue across various applications. Additionally, the engineered in-line design of the sander tool body ensures flush sanding and better control during use.

This sander introduces an active dust collection feature, providing hose free and cord free dust containment, minimizing jobsite cleanup with over 80% dust collection efficiency. Users have the option to utilize the included durable cotton dust bag or the universal hose adaptor.

Moreover, Milwaukee introduces their new lineup of 3” Mesh Sanding Discs with POWERGRID™ Tear Resistant Mesh, designed for maximum durability. The POWERGRID™ Tear Resistant Mesh, made with sharp aluminum oxide grain, delivers up to 12X longer life than standard sandpaper, featuring an open weave design to prevent clogging. This mesh design can also be easily cleaned by rinsing, shaking, vacuuming, or blowing the debris away, and reused for an extended lifespan. Offered in 80-400 grit, the Milwaukee 3” Mesh Sanding Discs with POWERGRID™ Tear Resistant Mesh are ideal for use with the Milwaukee® M12 FUEL™ 3” Random Orbital Detail Sander, as well as compatible with other 3” Sanders.

The new M12 FUEL™ 3" Random Orbital Sander joins the M12™ Cordless System, the largest sub-compact system on the market, focused on delivering industry-leading durability and the ability to complete applications in the tightest spaces. Currently, the M12™ System is made up of more than 150 solutions.
