Milwaukee announces M18 Cordless Belt Sander
October 30, 2024
Milwaukee just announced a new Milwaukee 2832-20 M18 FUEL 3-in. x 18-in. Cordless Belt Sander at their 2022 Pipeline event. This is a long list of items that Milwaukee just announced at their Pipeline event but one of the most notable. Not many companies have cordless belt sanders available but with the progress with battery tech over the past few years we are seeing more power-hungry tools going cordless. Makita does have a 40v cordless belt sander in the works which is expected to be released later this year.
