Overview
Cordless and under a pound, the Milwaukee 2460-20 router spins up to 32,000 RPM on Milwaukee's 12 volt platform, built for trim and edge work.
At under a pound, this router sits at the light end of Milwaukee's cordless lineup, built for one-handed trimming and edge work rather than plunge routing through thick material. The 32,000 RPM top speed is high for a cordless tool, which helps produce cleaner cuts in laminate and edge banding. It runs on Milwaukee's 12 volt battery system, shared with other compact tools on that platform.

Who it's for
Woodworkers, cabinet installers, and DIYers doing trim, edge, and laminate work who want a cordless router light enough for one-handed control. Not built for heavy plunge routing or large bit work, where a corded full-size router is the better tool.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Cordless on 12 volt Milwaukee platform
- 32,000 RPM top speed
- Under 1 pound for one-handed control
- Not sized for heavy plunge routing
- Battery and charger often sold separately as a bare tool
- Bit capacity not specified
Performance notes
The 32,000 RPM motor spins fast enough for clean edge trimming, and at 0.9 pounds it is light enough to guide with one hand, though its 12 volt battery platform points to shorter jobs rather than continuous heavy use.
