BURNDY® PATRIOT® Tools Now Compatible with Milwaukee M18™ Batteries

Hubbell BURNDY® PATRIOT® installation tooling continues to evolve to meet the needs of today’s contractors and utility professionals. BURNDY is introducing PATRIOT tools with compatibility for Milwaukee M18™ REDLITHIUM™ batteries, providing expanded flexibility without compromising the performance and reliability of the BURNDY engineered connection system.

Electrical contractors and utility crews increasingly standardize on a single battery platform across their job sites. With this enhancement, PATRIOT tools can now integrate seamlessly into those environments—allowing users to leverage existing Milwaukee battery investments while maintaining the trusted performance of BURNDY tools.

Designed to support productivity in the field, this expanded battery compatibility eliminates the need for multiple battery platforms and reduces hesitation when adopting BURNDY crimping solutions. The result is a more streamlined workflow, helping crews work efficiently while using the tools and batteries they already rely on.

BURNDY remains an industry leader in crimping solutions, delivering safe, repeatable connections backed by an engineered system approach. This latest advancement ensures that users can maintain that standard of performance regardless of battery preference while benefiting from increased jobsite flexibility.

PATRIOT tools now support an expanded range of lithium-ion battery platforms, including both Makita and Milwaukee options, providing greater choice and adaptability for a wide range of applications. From utility and renewable energy to data centers, transportation, and industrial applications, BURNDY tooling is built to perform across demanding environments.

This enhancement reinforces a simple customer value: more power, more flexibility, and more productivity without compromise.
