MILWAUKEE® Disrupts Traditional Hand Sanding

Milwaukee Tool continues to disrupt the carpentry and remodelling space with new-to-world solutions. The new M12 FUEL™ Sub Compact Spot Sander offers professional carpenters and remodelers the means to accomplish jobsite material preparation and installation.

With faster detail sanding, while leaving a stain-grade finish and more access to tight corners and contours, the M12 FUEL™ Sub compact spot Sander is optimized to perform applications on-site that are traditionally done by hand.

Our new M12 FUEL™ Sub Compact Spot Sander replaces inefficient hand-sanding tasks such as removing imperfection from finish materials.

The M12 FUEL™ Sub Compact Spot Sander provides the power to remove material up to 2x faster than traditional hand sanding solutions on the market. Its orbital sanding motion avoids scratches and gouges at a precise removal rate, leaving a stain-grade finish. The compact detail sander with penta shaped pad allows for uncompromised corner accessibility and the sponge interface pad which is included optimises the tool for profiles and contours, increasing the precision and removal of material.

As an added benefit, the sander features an LED Work Light for better visibility, a variable speed trigger, and four different speed modes that allows the correct speed to be set for different types of material. The M12 FUEL™ Sub Compact Spot Sander has been fitted with a lock-on button for greater comfort at extended durations, while the compact size allows for efficient tool-belt storage.

The M12 FUEL™ Sub Compact Spot Sander features a hook and loop pad to allow the user to change quickly between different grit types.

Milwaukee Tool also introduces their new Mesh Sanding Sheets exclusively compatible with the M12 FUEL™ Sub Compact Spot Sander. The Milwaukee Mesh Sanding Sheets are designed with POWERGRID™ Tear Resistant Mesh and a durable nylon backing for maximum durability against sharp edges and corners. These sheets last up to 12x longer than standard sandpaper and are coated with sharp cutting grains for faster material removal and a flawless finish. Standard sandpaper is prone to clogging, however the open weave-design on the Milwaukee Mesh Sanding Sheets allows users to shake, vacuum, blow, or rinse them clean preventing material build up for repeated use and longer life.

The new M12 FUEL™ Sub Compact Spot Sander joins the M12™ Cordless System, the largest sub-compact system on the market, focused on delivering industry-leading durability and power in the tightest spaces. Currently, the M12™ System is made up of more than 100 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.
