Milwaukee M12 FUEL Stubby 1/2" Impact Wrench Kit – Compact 250 ft-lbs Torque, 2 Batteries

The Milwaukee M12 FUEL Stubby 1/2" Impact Wrench Kit is a compact, high-torque cordless impact designed to deliver up to 250 ft-lbs of nut-busting torque in a lightweight, space-saving package with two batteries, charger, and carrying case.

Designed for technicians, mechanics, and tradespeople who need powerful fastener removal in tight spaces, this M12 FUEL stubby blends Milwaukee's high-efficiency brushless motor technology with a short anvil profile for access where full-size impact wrenches can't reach. The kit includes two M12 batteries, a rapid charger, and a durable carrying case so you can work longer between charges and transport everything securely.

How does this stubby impact wrench perform in confined or tight spaces?

The short, compact body and stubby 1/2" anvil allow you to reach lug nuts and fasteners in cramped wheel wells, engine bays, and industrial assemblies where longer tools won’t fit. Despite its small footprint, it produces substantial torque for breakaway and fastening tasks.

• Ultra-compact length for tight clearances
• Short 1/2" anvil for better access to recessed fasteners
• Balanced for one-handed or two-handed controlled use

What kind of power and runtime can I expect from the M12 batteries?

The kit supplies two M12 battery packs that pair with the FUEL brushless motor to provide strong, consistent output across typical automotive and industrial jobs. Runtime varies with load, but having two batteries and a fast charger reduces downtime and keeps you working longer between charges.

• Brushless motor for improved efficiency and longer runtime
• Two batteries included to allow hot-swapping on the job
• Charger in kit for quick turnaround between shifts
