Drilling holes and installing screws or bolts in an area too small for a conventional drill/driver can exhaust the patience of the most experienced contractor. When you get tired of using a stubby screwdriver you can either shell out the big bucks for a right angle drill or you can save your money and purchase Milwaukee's right angle attachment. Milwaukee Tools, one of the most respected names in the tool industry, manufactures a 1/4-inch hex right angle attachment that is ideal for cordless drills up to and including the more powerful 18-volt models. The tool's quick-change magnetic chuck accepts standard 1/4-inch hex drive accessories and the durable metal housing utilizes steel gears and ball bearing construction that gives the user a full 235-inch-pounds of torque. More than enough torque for driving screws or for drilling smaller holes. At only 2 inches wide, the tool will fit in very small and compact areas. Includes 5 bits and Milwaukee's famous 5-year warranty. -- C. Dwight Barnett

 Perfect for what I needed September 25, 2008
Scott Kendall (Lexington, KY USA)
This is a beautiful little gem. It allowed me to make a repair on my car when my standard drill would not. The 2 inch bend is smaller than anything else I found. For as often as I need a right angle drill, it beats spending $200 on one. Those who had bits fall out need to learn to look at directions before giving scathing reviews. The chuck is magnetic, but you also have to pull back on the brass collar to secure the bit.

I remember needing one of these so long ago and my only option at the time was to get the skewdriver kit witch had a right angle adapter in it, but that was a much lighter duty version than this (of course i learned later that Milwaukee mad the same thing.
So having gone through at least three of those i kept thinking that they should make a heavier duty one and they did.
I have used this and it's one of those tools that i can't do without.
really tough attachment!! May 16, 2008
Henry Hernandez (Union City, CA)
i have this attached to my makita cordless impact driver and it works like a charm! i've used it to drive over a hundred sheet metal screws in steel framing one after another, all in a row and i was sure this thing was going to give out on me. but, i'm glad i was wrong because this attachment has proven itself to be quite reliable.

I was excited when I first saw this product, but my excitement soon turned into disappointment. It looks well built, but my first one lasted about 10 minutes. When I tried to get a replacement, I was told that it was considered a consumable. I then made the mistake of buying another one thinking that the other one breaking was a fluke. Unfortunately, the second one lasted only about 15 minutes. Save your money!

This tool is one of those that you pick up and say to yourself, "Pretty neat. Nicely made. But how useful is it, really?" Truthfully, for most folks it will just sit in a toolbox and gather dust--until that once-in-a-while, ah-ha moment when you are puzzling out how to get a job done when the drill plus bit are too long to fit. At that moment, you will take this tool out, dust it off, and say, "My, I hope this works!"
It's a Milwaukee, so it works, after you figure out how to adjust its handle and hold it. Most folks also have to figure out how to hold their mouth as they operate its chuck (which is easy, but different). After the job is done, you realize that this attachment just saved your bacon.
This is one tool for which it is important to read the instructions (very short). The instruction sheet gives the following specs and warnings: The chuck takes 1/4 inch quick-release hex shanks: "twist bits to 1/8 inch diameter, flat boring bits to 1 inch diameter, and screw driver bits." "Be prepared for high torque situations that may cause the power tool to spin, causing loss of control." Imagine the tool spinning like a flag at a high rate of speed round and round the drill bit that is now acting as a flagpole.
I can attest that my unit has seen larger twist bits than specified. However, don't use them until you know how the torque works. It can be very surprising, and it can destroy the tool and hurt you.
If you need a right-angle drill to shoot holes in studs or joists, this is not the tool to replace one, so go ahead and buy or rent the right angle drill. Just remember that right angle drills deserve their reputation, and be prepared.
Use this for things like installing screws in drawer guides in narrow cabinets, mounting upper corner cabinets, helping with vent-hood vent pipe installation (drilling a pilot hole in the cabinet top for the jig saw blade), etc.
It also will fit in battery-powered drivers to drive screws at impossible angles.
