Milwaukee 2457-20 M12 3/8 in. Cordless Ratchet

The Milwaukee 2457-20 M12 3/8 in. Cordless Ratchet is a compact, cordless ratchet tool engineered for fast, one-handed fastening in tight, hard-to-reach spaces. Powered by Milwaukee's M12 cordless platform, this ratchet features a 3/8 in. drive size that accepts standard 3/8 in. sockets, making it a versatile addition to any professional tool arsenal or DIY tool kit. The compact ratchet head design makes it easy to work inside electrical panels, junction boxes, and other confined enclosures where full-size ratchets and corded tools simply won't fit. Its cordless design eliminates the hassle of cords and air hoses, delivering consistent ratcheting performance wherever the job takes you.

Key Features

  • Compact Cordless Design: Runs on Milwaukee's M12 cordless platform for cord-free, portable fastening without the drag of a hose or power cord.
  • 3/8 in. Drive Size: Accepts standard 3/8 in. sockets, giving you compatibility with the sockets already in your toolbox.
  • Ratchet Mechanism: Delivers smooth, one-handed ratcheting action for fast fastener installation and removal, reducing wrist fatigue compared to a manual ratchet.
  • One-Handed Operation: The ratcheting head allows quick fastener cycling with a single hand, ideal when the other hand is holding a workpiece, flashlight, or panel cover.
  • Compact Footprint: Sized to fit into tight, confined workspaces where corded or pneumatic tools can't reach.
  • M12 System Compatibility: Part of Milwaukee's broader M12 cordless lineup, built for professional trades that demand dependable performance.

Milwaukee 2457-20 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Milwaukee 2457-20 M12 ratchet come with a battery and charger?
No. The 2457-20 is the bare tool only, which is what the -20 suffix means on Milwaukee's numbering. It runs on the M12 battery platform, so you need an M12 pack and an M12 charger separately. If you already run M12 tools, your existing packs drop right in.
2) Is a cordless ratchet or a compact impact wrench the better choice for tight panel work?
For work inside electrical panels, junction boxes and other confined enclosures, the cordless ratchet is the one that fits. Its head is sized like a hand ratchet, so it gets into spaces a full-size ratchet or a corded or pneumatic tool cannot. An impact wrench breaks loose seized fasteners better, but it is bulkier. Many trades carry the ratchet for run-down and access, and reach for an impact only when something is stuck.
3) Can one person run the Milwaukee 2457-20 while holding a panel cover?
That is the point of it. The ratcheting head cycles fasteners with a single hand, so the other hand stays free for the panel cover, a flashlight, or the workpiece. It also cuts the wrist work compared with swinging a manual ratchet all day.
4) What trades actually use the M12 3/8 in. cordless ratchet?
It is built for automotive repair and maintenance, electrical panel and enclosure assembly, HVAC and plumbing installation, and general tight-space fastening on new construction and renovation. Anywhere you would be dragging an air hose into a crawl space or under a vehicle, this replaces it.
5) Are there different versions of the Milwaukee 2457 ratchet to choose between?
The 2457-20 is a single configuration: one model number, 3/8 in. drive, bare tool on the M12 platform. There is no finish or size choice to specify when ordering, so the only decision left is which M12 battery you pair with it.
