New Milwaukee Tools DIY Enthusiasts Will Want In 2024
By KENDRA BRUNING
Track Saw
Track saws, such as Milwaukee's M18 Track Saw, combine the mobility and flexibility of a circular saw with the precision and accuracy of a table saw.
While the upper-to-midrange category has belonged to Makita for several years, the M18 Track Saw gives it a run for its money with its dead-on accuracy and high-tech features.
Duplex Nailer
Milwaukee's M18 FUEL Duplex Nailer brings the same power and portability from the world of framing carpentry to formwork concrete construction and other applications.
Driving up to four 8D or 16D nails per second, the duplex nailer could be great for those with jobs that require sinking a lot of nails for repetitive tasks.
Impact Wrench
The 2024 M18 FUEL 1/2-inch High Torque Impact Wrench is a true return to form, delivering excellent build quality while improving efficiency.
Delivering up to 1,100 lb-ft of nut-busting torque and 900 lb-ft of fastening torque, this impact wrench can break loose the most stubborn, rusted lug nuts.
Laser Level Kit
Like Milwaukee's similar outdoor red laser kit for surveying new job sites, the M18 Green Interior Rotary Laser Level Kit is great for accurate measuring.
The leveling kit can be mounted from wall or stud-hung applications using built-in rare earth magnets, or you can just as easily mount it on a tripod.
Blower
Milwaukee claims that the M18 FUEL Blower can deliver a 15-foot swath of clearing power and reach full power in one second, doing more work in less time than similar blowers.
The brand also claims that, because of its brushless motor platform, this blower weighs considerably less than a lot of the competition while at the same time being much quieter.
