ECN Forum Forums General Topics of the Trade General Discussion Area Cordless tools, milwaukee or dewalt?

Sandro, Dewalt's low speed (which is where max torque is achieved) is only 450rpm while Milwaukee's is 500. This means that Dewault must "give-up" approx. 10% of its speed to achieve an approx. 1% increase in torque. The fact is (assuming the manufacturer's claimed numbers are correct) the Milwaukee's motor is more powerful. You are essentially correct though. I didn't realize any manufacture advertised more that 495in/lbs.
