Tag Archives: 12V

In our shop, the Milwaukee Cordless Rotary Tool, 12.0V quickly proved it isn’t trying to be a full-size die grinder—it’s aiming to be the grab-and-go problem solver that lives within arm’s reach. We used it for quick deburring, light sanding, trimming plastic, and touching up tight corners where a larger tool feels clumsy. The cordless freedom kept our workflow moving, and the compact feel made detail work less fatiguing during short bursts. Power delivery feels suited to precision rather than brute force, which is exactly what we want from a rotary tool at this size. In this review, we’ll break down what impressed us, what slowed us down, and where it earns a permanent spot on our bench.
