This innovative light provides users with a strong magnetic base and dual rotation points, delivering directional lighting, hands-free work, and unmatched maneuverability. The M12™ Underbody Light is the ideal solution for lighting efficiency and versatility in one desired location.

Featuring dual joints that swivel 300-degrees horizontally and up to 180-degrees vertically, the underbody light provides users with multiple orientations and pivot points to direct light in numerous locations. A magnetic base allows it to be mounted on magnetic surfaces for hands-free lighting and adaptability to a range of different workplaces. The arm of the light doubles as a 12” Magnetic Storage Tray, providing magnetic bolt attachment for small jobsite accessories, preventing lost or misplaced items.

Powered by M12™ REDLITHIUM™ batteries, the light has 3 Power Modes that provide up to 15 hours of output and run-time on low, and up to 5 hours of run-time on high. Built to withstand the toughest conditions, it’s resistant to corrosion and common chemicals found in autobody shops, IP54 rated, and can withstand impacts up to 6 ft.

The new M12™ Underbody Light joins the M12™ Cordless System, the largest sub-compact system on the market, focused on delivering industry-leading durability and power in the tightest spaces. Currently the M12™ System is made up of more than 100 solutions. Focused on the user and investing in game-changing technology, Milwaukee will continue to design and develop lighting solutions with the ability to adapt, perform and survive the demands of professional use.
