Milwaukee Tool Adds Compact 2″ Planer to M12 System

Milwaukee Tool launches the M12™ Brushless 2″ Planer (2540-20), an addition to their M12™ System. The M12™ System provides trade-focused solutions fully compatible with M12™ REDLITHIUM™ batteries. The Brushless 2″ Planer delivers the power to plane and scribe soft hardwood in a compact, cordless design. The dual-sided shaving port allows direct shavings on either side of the tool, improving productivity. Users can make careful, accurate cuts with twenty-one depth settings ranging from 0 to 5/64.



The lightweight planer uses a 2″ wide shoe, the most common size for applications such as scribing and planing doors. The M12™ 2″ Brushless Planer can remove up to 5/64ths in a single pass, delivering a smooth surface finish.

To maintain a clean workspace, users can reduce clean-up time with a shavings collection attachment and universal hose adapter. The battery-powered 2″ planner carries Milwaukee’s 5-year limited power tool warranty.

Milwaukee also releases 2″ Planer Blades (48-38-2005) that are designed for and compatible with the M12 Brushless 2″ Planer (2524-20). The 2″ blades are made from double-sided carbide to increase longevity and durability.

  • Use these to replace both blades on the cutter head of the M12 Brushless 2″ Planer.
