Video: Top 3 Products from Milwaukee Tool's New Product Symposium

By Amanda Hermans

Milwaukee Tool introduced more than 100 new products at its 2018 New Product Symposium. We talked to the company's experts about the three most important new tools for residential construction pros.

This year's edition of the annual event did not disappoint, with many tool improvements and innovations across all of Milwaukee's core trade concentrations. Emphasis on new cordless technology was apparent throughout, with the introduction of the RedLithium High Output 12.0 battery, which is compatible with more than 150 existing and future Milwaukee power tools.

Building off this cordless technology was the new cordless M18 Fuel 8 1/4-inch table saw, which is the first of its kind, the company says. The company also introduced a new 18V cordless Super Sawzall and circular saw, as well as updated drills and drivers.

Continuing in new technology, the company emphaized its One-Key program, which allows enabled devices to be tracked, locked, and inventoried in a smartphone or tablet app.

See some of these products in action in the video above, and see more coverage of Milwaukee's 2018 introductions here and here.
