Milwaukee M12 FUEL 18 Gauge Brad Nailer now available

Just in time for Pipeline 2024, Milwaukee's new 2541 M12 FUEL 18-Gauge Compact Brad Nailer is now available and ripe for the picking. Combining unmatched cordless power with a super lightweight and compact design, this new nailer is set to be a surefire hit for contractors looking to cut the cord on compressors.

It's no secret that cordless tools are finally catching up with the performance pneumatics can offer, and Milwaukee's newest nailer proves that in many ways. Powered by its reliable M12 REDLITHIUM technology, this compact brad nailer is capable of driving 5/8 inch to 1-1/2 inch brad nails in both soft and hardwoods, providing a much more convenient alternative to heavier and bulker air-powered nailers.

At just 4.6 pounds, it's one of the lightest options available out there. However, that doesn't mean you're losing out on power by going cordless. Milwaukee's POWERSTATE brushless motor, along with the M12 FUEL platform, ensure each nail is driven flush and clean in even denser hardwoods. Plus, the smaller design makes it even easier to get into tighter corners when installing crown molding or any other projects with limited space.

Milwaukee's new brad nailer also comes with every other must-have feature you'd expect to find on a pneumatic, including tool-free depth adjustment and jam clearing, as well as sequential and contact actuation firing.

For trim carpenters, Milwaukee's new cordless brad nailer offers an excellent tool that's sure to not just improve work efficiency, but quality as well. That said, even weekend warriors that need a decent brad nailer in their tool set won't be disappointed.

While it's only currently available in a tool only option, the 2451 M12 FUEL Compact Brad Nailer should see kit options arrive down the line. For now, we'd recommend grabbing an M12 battery and charger starter set, or at least an additional battery pack, to go along with that new brad nailer of yours.
