The Milwaukee M12 FUEL™ 3/8" x 13" Cordless Bandfile (2483-20) delivers pneumatic-style performance in a compact cordless tool, making it ideal for automotive repair, fabrication, and metal finishing applications.

Powered by Milwaukee’s POWERSTATE™ brushless motor, this bandfile provides fast material removal and exceptional control when working in tight areas where traditional grinders or sanders cannot reach. The compact design combined with a 360° rotating arm allows the sanding belt to be positioned at multiple angles for improved accessibility when working around exhaust systems, engine components, or inside confined metalwork areas.

With two selectable speed settings (1,800 or 3,600 surface feet per minute) and a variable speed trigger, users can easily match the tool’s performance to the task, whether removing spot welds, cleaning rust, deburring edges, or finishing metal surfaces.

The bandfile also features forward and reverse operation, tool-free belt changes, and belt alignment adjustment, ensuring quick setup and maximum control during detailed finishing work. When paired with an M12 REDLITHIUM™ battery, the tool is capable of removing up to 65 spot welds per charge, making it a powerful addition to any professional workshop.

Designed for professional use, the Milwaukee M12 FUEL bandfile is perfect for mechanics, panel beaters, fabricators, and technicians who require precision sanding and grinding in hard-to-reach areas.
