Overview
The Milwaukee 2606-21CT is a cordless drill driver from the M18 18-volt platform, weighing 6.26 pounds and measuring roughly 6 by 3 by 9 inches. The CT suffix in Milwaukee's naming typically marks a kit configuration, pointing to a package that includes more than just the bare tool.
At 1,800 RPM and 1.5 amps, this sits in compact drill driver territory rather than the heavy-duty hammer drill class, aimed at general drilling and driving rather than masonry or high-torque fastening.
- Power source: Battery powered
- Voltage: 18V
- Speed: 1,800 RPM
- Weight: 6.26 pounds
Who it's for
Good for homeowners and tradespeople already invested in Milwaukee's M18 battery system who want a compact everyday drill driver. Not the choice for masonry drilling or high-torque bolt work, which calls for a hammer drill or impact driver.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Milwaukee M18 battery platform

Performance notes
Cordless drills in this speed range trade top-end RPM for control, making them easier to manage on delicate fastening tasks, while the battery platform determines how it runs and how it fits into an existing tool collection.
