Overview
Milwaukee's 2648-20 is an 18 volt cordless random orbit sander sold as a bare tool, weighing 2 pounds and measuring 11 by 6 by 7 inches.
The dash-20 in Milwaukee's model number is the company's standard marking for a bare tool, meaning battery and charger are typically sold apart from the sander itself.
- 18 volt M18 cordless platform
- 2 pound tool weight
- 11 x 6 x 7 inch dimensions
- Bare tool, model 2648-20
Who it's for
Fits someone already invested in Milwaukee's M18 battery platform who wants a lightweight cordless sander to add to it. Not a fit for a buyer expecting a battery and charger included, since bare tool listings typically exclude both.
Pros and cons
- Lightweight at 2 pounds for extended use
- Cordless on the 18 volt M18 platform
- Compact 11 x 6 x 7 inch size
- Sold bare, no battery or charger included
- Pad size and dust collection not specified
Performance notes
At 2 pounds, the sander is light enough for extended one-handed sanding sessions, and running on the 18 volt M18 platform removes the cord from the equation for mobility around a job site or bench. As a bare tool it depends on an already-charged M18 battery to run.
