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

 I hope this will clear up some confusion. October 18, 2006

This is one handy tool to have in your tool arsenal . You never know when you need to get into a tight space. It sure beats using a stubby screwdriver or a 1/4" socket wrench. This is a very well built attachment. I own the Milwaukee off-set screwdriver power head (48-32-2100) that is a little smaller and now the heavy duty right angle attachment (49-22-8510). Both are outstanding tools and perform better then stated.
The heavy duty right angle attachment is rated for 235 in. of torque. This is almost full torque on a Milwaukee 3/8" drive, 12V cordless drill and half torque on the Milwaukee 1/2" drive, 18V cordless drill when using low speed on the drills. One needs to remember that these drill attachments are 1/4" hex drives. If you are looking for serious torque, look into purchasing a 3/8" or 1/2" right angle drill.
I hope this will clear up some confusion with the reviewers that stated the bits do not stay in the chuck. You might want to go over the instructions to see what you are doing wrong or you are not using 1/4" hex quick release shank bits. The right angle attachment does have a quick release magnetic chuck. When the bit is installed correctly, you can not even pull it out without releasing it with the quick release chuck collar. I have a Craftsman Speed-Lok Drill and Drive set that works perfectly with this, along with the bits that came with it. Here is a quote from the Milwaukee "Inserting Bit Instructions".
1. Pull out the chuck collar.
2. Insert the bit shank all the way into the chuck. (the magnet will help pull it in)
3. Release the chuck collar.
4. Pull on the bit to make sure it is secure.
This Is A GREAT Attachment Tool December 9, 2006

I've had this for about a year now and it's just great. Built much better than any other brand I've seen. It keeps you from having to lug around another drill for most tasks like drilling, counter sinking, and driving screws in tight places like cabinets and drawers.
To clear up any confusion, the bit holder IS BOTH magnetic and locking. Just pull forward on the brass colored collar (see picture) and insert the bit. If you don't, the bit won't fully seat and will fall out.

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.

Once I opened this tool from the packaging you can tell the quality of the manufacturing. I have dealt with less expensive add on attachments and this is far superior. The gear mechanism is very smooth and the ability to transfer torque is excellent. I am now considering buying more Milwaukee tools!

This Milwaukee Right Angle Drill/Driver Attachment is way better than the lightweight plastic one that OSH and Home Depot normally sell for $29. This one is all metal, inside and out, and wont wear out on you half way through the job. I've melted the nylon insides of the other style before lunchtime where as this one is still good to go after weeks on the job. The fully adjustable handle makes it ideal for any close quarters operation, and the head is a "true 90 deg." not like the other that is slightly canted. I liked mine so much I bought a dozen for my whole crew. Tired of replacing your plastic 90 degree attachment? Buy this one!
