Pencil vibrators are used to vibrate concrete to let it settle and to help get any air bubbles in the pour up to the surface which helps strengthen concrete pours. They use a vibrating rod that’s attached to the tool base by a hose. These tools are typically electric which requires an extension cord or gas engine which has it’s own drawbacks like gas fumes, pull starting, maintenance, consumables, and the list goes on however there are also battery powered options. Milwaukee isn’t the first brand to make a battery powered concrete pencil vibrator as other brands have done this with their 18V/20V systems such as Dewalt and Makita however Milwaukee’s 18V model is a FUEL tool and you know what that means, a brushless motor. Milwaukee says their M18 Fuel model can generate up to 1.8 peak HP which they claim delivers up to three times more power than comparable cordless pencil vibrators.
It can vibrate up to 12,500 VMP and can be ran on up to 20YDS3 of concrete per charge which is equivalent to 30′ x 35′ x 6″ slab or ten light pole bases with a HO 6.0 ah battery pack. A variable speed trigger allows for 0-12,500 VPM and uses a 1″ square head. Milwaukee also offers two variants as mentioned in the outro with a 4 foot hose and 8 foot hose. Both can be purchased as baretools or kits with a HO 6.0ah battery and rapid charger. Prices shown below. They will launch Early 2022 according to Milwaukee.
