Key Features & Benefits
- 36 mm Head Profile — fits between closely spaced joists, behind switchboard rails, and inside steel framing channels where inline drivers cannot reach.
- 81 Nm Torque — with a 5.0 Ah battery, delivers enough power for structural fasteners, self-tappers into steel, and heavy bracket fixings.
- 2-Mode Drive Control — the only right angle impact driver in its class with selectable speed/torque modes, giving precision control for different fastener types.
- 2-Speed Gearbox — low gear (0–1,500 RPM) for high-torque fastening, high gear (0–2,250 RPM) for rapid driving of lighter fasteners.
- Full Metal Gearbox — built for sustained site use where plastic gears would strip under repeated impact loading.
- 307 mm Overall Length — reaches into deep cavities and behind wall panels while maintaining a comfortable grip position.
When to Use This Right Angle Impact Driver
The M18BRAID-0 is the 18V upgrade from the M12BRAID-0 for trades who need right angle impact driving with more power and the benefit of their existing M18 battery platform. The 81 Nm output handles heavier fasteners than the 12V model, and the 2-mode drive control is unique in the right angle class. Electricians use it behind switchboards, plumbers fix brackets between joists, and steel framers drive self-tappers in channels. For lighter duties on the 12V platform, the M12BRAID-0 at 68 Nm is more compact and lighter.
