Milwaukee, WI – Milwaukee Tool continues to disrupt the cordless impact wrench market with the introduction of the next generation of M12 FUEL™ Stubby Impact Wrenches. The new Stubby Impact Wrenches deliver up to 550 ft-lbs of nut-busting torque, are lighter weight and more compact, while delivering 50% Faster Application Speeds
“Through infield research, we identified that users frequently needed more power to remove stubborn fasteners and often had to switch to a larger, heavier impact wrench which was making them less productive by switching to additional solutions to complete a single application,” said Eric Rusch, Director of Product Marketing for Milwaukee Tool. “Milwaukee identified these critical user frustrations and is looking to eliminate them with the next generation Stubbys which delivers the best combination of size and performance. Providing the ability to remove corroded fasteners while maintaining a compact size, these new solutions are driving productivity in the shop for professionals.”

The next generation of M12 FUEL™ Stubby Impact Wrenches deliver 0-3000 RPM and up to 550 ft-lbs of nut-busting torque making them the most powerful Stubby impact wrench on the market. With the increased power, the new Stubby can remove the most corroded and stubborn fasteners..

Available in 3/8”, ½" with Friction Ring, & ½" with Pin Detent, the new M12 FUEL™ Stubby Impacts are the most compact and up to 2.5lbs lighter weight than the competition. With the compact size, the Stubby Impacts deliver the most access in tight spaces while doubling the performance from Gen 1. The compact size and reduced weight make overhead applications less strenuous and reduce fatigue from repetitive use throughout the day.

In addition to the increased power and compact size that these Stubbys boast 3,000 RPM and deliver 50% faster application speeds making users more efficient on the job. Featuring an updated 4-Mode DRIVE CONTROL™, enabling single handed mode changes by shifting into neutral and double tapping the trigger. The AUTO SHUT-OFF™ Mode also applies no more than 15 ft-lbs of torque for hand-tight applications that prevents overtightening when in forward mode delivering users greater control. While in reverse, bolt removal mode slows down the RPM once the bolt is free, preventing bolts from flying around the work area.  When paired with an M12™ REDLITHIUM™ HIGH OUTPUT™ XC5.0 or CP2.0 Battery Pack it delivers 25% more power, runs 25% cooler, and is chemical resistant to protect against common oils, greases, and solvents.

The new M12 FUEL™ Stubby Impact Wrenches join the M12™ Cordless System, the largest sub-compact system on the market, focused on delivering industry-leading durability and the power to complete applications in the tightest spaces. Currently, the M12™ System is made up of more than 150 solutions.

*M12 FUEL™ power tools are designed, engineered, and built to deliver extreme performance and productivity. All M12 FUEL™ products feature three Milwaukee®-exclusive innovations—the POWERSTATE™ Brushless Motor, REDLITHIUM™ Battery Pack and REDLINK PLUS™ Intelligence Hardware and Software—that deliver unmatched power, run-time and durability on the jobsite. Simply put, M12 FUEL™ tools are the most powerful sub-compact cordless tools in their class.
