Ideal for a range of fastening applications, this drill/driver also features Milwaukee's Digital Power Management to prevent overload damage to the tool and battery. An all-metal gear case--the only one in its class--provides durability for heavy-duty jobs.
For optimal bit retention, the 2602-22 comes complete with an all-metal 1/2-inch single-sleeve ratcheting chuck, while its compact, ergonomic design helps reduce fatigue for all-day productivity. In fact, this portable driver/drill measures just 8.5 inches in length and weighs only 4.9 pounds, so it won't overtax your wrists and hands.
![]() Reliable, long-lasting LITHIUM-ION power is just one part of a full feature set. |
A convenient power gauge on each battery displays remaining runtime, and a second battery is included with the kit, so you never have to worry about running out of power in the middle of a task. Plus the M18 LITHIUM-ION battery charger is designed to recharge batteries in one hour or less.
Since lithium-ion batteries are significantly smaller and lighter than 18-volt NiCad batteries, they play an integral role in keeping Milwaukee's M18 tools ergonomic and comfortable to use. For added versatility, M18 tools also work with even lighter M18 Compact LITHIUM-ION Batteries (not included).
M18 Series Tools: Innovative, Powerful, and Easy to Handle
Launched in 2008, the M18 series from Milwaukee balances power and ergonomics. M18 tools pack the best-in-class, heavy-duty performance that you expect from Milwaukee into lighter, more compact bodies than those of traditional tools. This translates to improved versatility on the jobsite and reduced user fatigue at the end of the workday.

This one surprised me, completely. I'm more of a weekend project warrior and this one completed many tasks that I normally would use my old Black & Decker in combination with an electric drill. I actually used this drill for 3 days before I broke out the second battery for the first time. And the available power and torque is amazing, far surpassing the capabilities of even my electric drill. One should note that two hands should be used when you know it will be a tough job because the torque of this lightweight monster could put a serious hurt on your wrist. Now I'm looking to replace ALL my cordless tools with the M18 Family. The M18 6.5 inch circular saw is next on my list. Yeah, they cost more than most of your average tools, but the benefits far outweigh and are totally worth it. 13 of 14 people found the following review helpful: By This review is from: Milwaukee 2602-22 M18 18-Volt Cordless 1/2-Inch Hammer Drill/Driver Kit (Tools & Home Improvement) I also have the M18 2601 drill/driver, which is sufficient and preferable for many applications. It's a compact drill and a great one at that, but it isn't for all jobs. So for those times I need a little bit more, I compared the 2611 and the 2602 and went with this one and I'll tell you why. The 550 in/lbs of torque this produces will be enough for anything I am ever going to foreseabley be involved with, and this drill is smaller, lighter and runs longer (not to mention a shorter head length than its competitors). I purchased it with the XC batteries and when used with them it runs FOREVER and gives out it's full 550 in/lbs of torque. This drill will also accept the compact batteries (the 2611 will not), and when running on the compact batteries puts out 450 in/lbs of torque - it's a smart drill that knows which battery is in use and cuts down on power to give you a longer run time on the smaller battery.
This drill is very well built - all metal gears and all...Read more 6 of 7 people found the following review helpful: This review is from: Milwaukee 2602-22 M18 18-Volt Cordless 1/2-Inch Hammer Drill/Driver Kit (Tools & Home Improvement) Great cordless drill, but not a Hilti substitute. Used mine quite heavily, brushes are about 50% used. Had it apart many times now, not worth waiting for warranty work.
Latest failure was the gear box brake. The gear box brake stops the drill from turning while you are doing up or undoing the keyless chuck. I removed the locking mechanism and replaced the chuck with a keyed jacobs chuck. Also noticed not enough grease was packed into the gearbox. Most had flown off and was not lubricating any of the gears properly. Fine swarf has migrated into the gearbox via gaps between the clutch's plastic adjuster rings. Positive points: Metal gears everywhere. Two cartridge bearings in the front gearbox. Still unable to find the tool that will allow the disassembly of the front shaft. The gearbox parts are not available separately. Still, few cordless drills have TWO cartridge bearings supporting the output shaft of the gearbox, let alone a...Read more |
