Milwaukee Unveils Their First Line of Framing Nailers and an Upgraded 18ga Brad Nailer

MILWAUKEE, WI- Milwaukee Tool continues to expand its line of cordless solutions from frame

to finish with the introduction of their very first cordless framing nailers, the M18 FUEL™ 21°

Framing Nailer and M18 FUEL™ 30° Framing Nailer. Delivering the power to sink nails in

engineered lumber, these framing nailers can also fire up to 3 nails per second with no gas

cartridges. Milwaukee® will also launch a completely redesigned compact M18 FUEL™ 18ga

Brad Nailer with the power to consistently drive nails in soft and hard words while leaving clean

nail holes, and with no ramp-up time.

Official Milwaukee Tool Press Release

“For years our users have demanded a Milwaukee® cordless solution to their framing

nailer frustrations. Unwilling to settle for subpar performance, we continued to advance our

technologies until we could provide a truly game-changing solution for these users,” said Sean

Kelley, Product Manager for Milwaukee Tool. “This year we’re proud to finally unveil our first

lineup of cordless framing nailers. With no gas cartridges necessary, the power to sink nails in

the most demanding materials, and the fire rate to keep users productive throughout their day,

these new framing nailers were worth the wait!”

With best-in-class power, the M18 FUEL™** Framing Nailers deliver a fire rate similar to

pneumatic to keep users productive. The nailers have also been optimized with the size

necessary to fit between studs and a balanced weight to limit fatigue. An optional Extended

Capacity Magazine accepting two strips of nails is also available for these tools, allowing users

to work longer before needing to reload.

With no gas cartridges, a POWERSTATE™ brushless motor, and no cleaning required,

the nailers are designed to deliver durability and reliability to the most demanding users with

very little maintenance. Coupled with the fact that the tools fire up to 3 nails per second, users

will experience greatly reduced downtime and maximized productivity.

Milwaukee has also completely redesigned, from the ground-up, their M18 FUEL™ 18ga

Brad Nailer. The new tool delivers clean, consistent nail holes in a compact size and with zero

ramp-up time. It has been optimized to consistently sink nails sub-flush in all common materials

and orientations, with reduced recoil and a reduced hole size left by the nail and striker. In

addition, the front of the tool has been streamlined to improve line-of-sight to the work surface

and access to tight spaces, and the overall weight has been reduced for better balance and less

fatigue.

Milwaukee is committed to improving productivity by providing performance-driven and

trade-focused solutions so users can perform an entire day’s work on one battery system. The

new M18 FUEL™ Framing Nailers and M18 FUEL™ 18ga Brad Nailer are fully compatible with

the entire M18™ line, and are a true testament to Milwaukee’s focus on investing in gamechanging technology that truly delivers breakthrough solutions for users.
