Milwaukee 2460-20 Cordless Rotary Tool, 12.0V

Is this the brushed version or brushless?

I don’t even see it called out by Milwaukee themselves:

Given the lack of mentioning along with the aspect that they’ll usually have the “Fuel” branding for brushless models, I would lean towards this one being brushed.

(Note that I am not staff. I just volunteer to help out on the forums.)

According to Google:

The Milwaukee 2460-20 M12 Cordless Rotary Tool is not brushless; it uses a brushed motor. It is the original, brushed version of Milwaukee’s 12V rotary tool, designed for cutting, grinding, sanding, and polishing with variable speeds from 5,000 to 32,000 RPM.
Motor Type: Brushed.

Replacement: The newer brushless version is the Milwaukee 2525-20 M12 FUEL™ Rotary Tool.
