Milwaukee® Expansion Tools Lineup Expands Again

MILWAUKEE, WI – Milwaukee Tool continues to provide the industry’s most consistent installations with the new M18 FUEL™ 2” ProPEX® Expander. In partnership with Uponor®, Milwaukee® delivers another breakthrough in productivity for ProPEX® installs. This latest addition to their expansion tool lineup is the fastest, lightest, and most compact way to install 2” ProPEX®.

A pipe size selector switch optimizes the expansion speed when expanding different sizes of ProPEX® for up to 3X faster 1-¼"-2” connections and the tool’s D-Handle design provides both balance and control for one-handed operation. The expander features an auto-rotating mechanism for fast, consistent expansions and comes equipped with a new, dedicated 2” ProPEX® Expander Head designed exclusively for the M18 FUEL™ 2” ProPEX® Expander. The integrated cone design of the new 2” head delivers the lightest, most compact 2” experience by reducing the travel length of the expander’s expansion cone, allowing for the most compact expansion cycle. Jobsite durability is provided by the tool’s all-metal gears and an integrated metal frame. The M18 FUEL™ 2” ProPEX® Expander is equipped with ONE-KEY™, allowing users to wirelessly connect their expander with their smartphone to track and manage the tool through the ONE-KEY™ app.

Like other M18 FUEL™ solutions, the M18 FUEL™ 2” ProPEX® Expander features Milwaukee’s POWERSTATE™ Brushless Motor, allowing the tool to quickly create connections yet run cool. The new expander achieves 20% more power and 2X more recharges than a standard lithium-ion battery when paired with the REDLITHIUM™ XC5.0 Extended Capacity Battery. REDLINK PLUS™ intelligence protects the tool from overload, overheating, and over-discharge while ensuring optimized performance of the tool.

Milwaukee is committed to improving productivity by providing performance-driven and trade-focused solutions so users can perform an entire day’s work on one battery system. The M18 FUEL™ 2” ProPEX® Expander is fully compatible with the entire M18™ line, now offering more than 200 power tool solutions.

 

*M18 FUEL™ is engineered for the most demanding tradesmen in the world. Delivering unrivaled performance, all M18 FUEL™ products feature three Milwaukee®-exclusive innovations—The POWERSTATE™ Brushless Motor, REDLITHIUM™ Battery Pack and REDLINK PLUS™ Intelligence Hardware and Software—that deliver unmatched power, run-time and durability on the jobsite. Simply put, M18 FUEL™ tools are the most powerful 18V cordless tools in their class.

**ONE-KEY™ is the first digital platform for tools and equipment. By integrating industry-leading tool electronics with a custom-built cloud-based program, ONE-KEY™ provides a new level of control and access to information that revolutionizes the way work gets done. The ability to customize, track, and manage through ONE-KEY™ fundamentally changes the way users interact with their tools and equipment.
