Overview

Milwaukee's 2505-22 is a 12 volt cordless drill driver weighing 2 pounds, running at up to 1600 RPM on 2 amps. That combination of light weight and high RPM fits installation and driving work over heavy-duty drilling.

1600 RPM at 12 volts is a driving-focused speed rather than a masonry or heavy-bore drilling spec, and the 2 pound weight backs up a tool meant for one-handed reach into cabinets, studs, and tight installs. Milwaukee's M12 line is built around exactly that kind of compact installation work.

  • 1600 RPM top speed
  • 12 volt, 2 amp motor
  • 2 pound listed weight

Who it's for

Fits installers and tradespeople who need a light, fast drill driver for repetitive fastening in tight spaces. Not the tool for large-bore drilling or masonry work that calls for higher torque, lower-speed gearing.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • 1600 RPM suits fast installation work
  • 2 pound weight for one-handed reach
Cons
  • 12 volts limits torque for heavy drilling
  • Not suited to masonry or large-bore holes

Performance notes

At 1600 RPM and 2 amps, the 2505-22 is geared toward speed over torque, which suits driving screws and boring smaller holes rather than heavy masonry or large-diameter work. Its 2 pound weight keeps it maneuverable for overhead or one-handed installation tasks where a full-size drill would tire the arm.
