Overview
The 2738-20 is Milwaukee's 18-volt M18 Fuel cordless tool in a 7 inch cut size, built with a brushless motor and running at 2200 RPM. It weighs about 7.5 pounds, listed as 120.64 ounces.
Milwaukee's Fuel line pairs a brushless motor with the M18 battery platform, and the 2200 RPM rating and 7 inch size point to a tool built for larger cutting or grinding tasks rather than fine detail work. The listing carries no seller description, so the numbers above are what is confirmed.
- M18 Fuel brushless motor
- 18-volt, 2200 RPM
- 7 inch cut size
Who it's for
Suits tradespeople and serious DIYers already on the Milwaukee M18 battery system who need a heavier duty 7 inch cordless tool. Not the right pick for someone without M18 batteries already, since compatibility with other platforms is not offered.
Pros and cons
- Brushless motor for less heat and longer motor life
- 18-volt M18 battery compatibility
- 2200 RPM suited to heavier cutting tasks
- Battery and charger availability not confirmed in this listing
- At about 7.5 pounds it is not the lightest option in its class
Performance notes
The brushless motor and 2200 RPM speed are geared toward sustained cutting or grinding rather than light trim work, and the near 7.5 pound weight reflects a tool built for that heavier duty. Runtime and torque depend on the M18 battery used, which is not included in this spec.
