Key Features & Benefits
- 2.25 peak horsepower — matches mid-range corded routers, handling large 1/2″ shank bits in hardwood without bogging down.
- 1/2″ and 1/4″ collets included — accepts the full range of router bits from small trimming bits to large panel-raising and stile-and-rail cutters.
- Plunge base with 63mm travel — deep plunge capacity for through-mortises, deep dados, and multi-pass plunge cutting in thick stock.
- 6-step depth turret — pre-set six depth stops at 1/8″ increments for rapid depth changes when stepping down through multi-pass cuts.
- Micro-adjust depth at 1/64″ increments — fine-tune the final depth for precise joinery and inlay work where fractions of a millimetre matter.
- 225+ linear feet per charge — enough runtime for extended edge profiling and template work across multiple workpieces.
When to Use This Router
The M18FR120B is Milwaukee’s full-size cordless router for serious woodworking that demands 1/2″ shank bits and sustained power through hardwoods. Choose this over the compact M18FTR-0 trimmer when using large profile bits, cutting deep dados, or routing mortises where the 2.25 HP and 63mm plunge depth are needed. The 1/2″ collet handles the larger bits that a 1/4″ trimmer cannot safely run. At 3.6 kg it is heavier than a trimmer but still lighter than most corded equivalents.
