Product Overview
The Metabo KFM 18 LTX 3 RF is a professional 18V cordless metal beveling tool designed for creating precise chamfers on metal edges without the need for a power cord. Its brushless motor, variable-speed control, and adjustable milling head make it suitable for demanding metal fabrication, weld preparation, and edge-finishing applications.
The tool can produce chamfers up to 5/8 inch (15 mm) at 45°, while its adjustable angle range provides flexibility for different edge-preparation requirements. As part of Metabo's 18V platform, the KFM 18 LTX 3 RF is particularly useful for fabrication and installation work where portability is important.
Key Features
- 18V cordless operation provides freedom of movement when working in workshops or on job sites.
- Brushless motor delivers efficient power with reduced maintenance requirements.
- Up to 15 mm / 5/8 in. chamfer height at 45° for substantial edge preparation.
- Adjustable chamfer angle from 0° to 90° accommodates a wide range of applications.
- Variable-speed control allows the operating speed to be matched to the material and task.
- Vario-Tacho-Constamatic (VTC) electronics help maintain a consistent speed under load.
- One-Touch Controller enables quick, tool-free adjustment of the cutting depth.
- Universal milling head uses indexable carbide inserts for efficient metal removal.
- Three indexable carbide inserts help provide consistent cutting performance.
- Pipe-following roller assists when beveling cylindrical workpieces and pipes.
- Adjustable guide plates help maintain a consistent chamfer angle.
- Electronic overload protection helps protect the motor from excessive loads.
- Electronic soft start helps the tool accelerate smoothly.
- Restart protection helps prevent unintended startup following a power interruption.
- Rotatable battery pack can improve accessibility in confined working areas.
- Compatible with Metabo 18V LiHD/Li-ion batteries and the CAS battery system.

Precise Metal Edge Beveling
The KFM 18 LTX 3 RF is designed to create controlled, repeatable chamfers on metal components. Its universal milling head eliminates the need to use separate milling heads for different chamfer angles, making the tool adaptable to a wide range of fabrication requirements.
The adjustable cutting depth allows the operator to gradually set the amount of material being removed. This is particularly useful when preparing edges for welding or achieving a specified chamfer dimension.
Adjustable Angle and Depth
With an operating angle range of 0° to 90°, the KFM 18 LTX 3 RF can be configured for different edge-treatment requirements. The One-Touch Controller provides fine depth adjustment in approximately 0.1 mm increments, helping users achieve consistent results across multiple workpieces.
At 45°, the tool is capable of producing a chamfer height of up to 15 mm (5/8 inch) and a chamfer width of up to 21 mm (13/16 inch).
Brushless Cordless Performance
The brushless motor is designed to deliver efficient power while avoiding the routine carbon-brush maintenance associated with conventional brushed motors. The 18V cordless platform also eliminates the need to manage a power cable around the workpiece.
For users already invested in Metabo's 18V or compatible CAS battery system, the cordless design can make the tool especially convenient for mobile fabrication and installation work.
Designed for Pipes and Difficult Edges
The pipe-following roller helps guide the tool when beveling curved workpieces. This is useful when preparing pipe edges or working on cylindrical metal components.
The guide plates provide additional support as the machine moves along the workpiece, helping maintain a uniform chamfer rather than relying entirely on operator positioning.
Electronic Protection
The KFM 18 LTX 3 RF incorporates several electronic features intended to improve tool control and durability. Vario-Tacho-Constamatic electronics help maintain speed under load, while overload protection helps safeguard the motor during demanding cutting operations.
Soft-start functionality provides a controlled acceleration when the tool is switched on, and restart protection helps prevent the motor from starting unintentionally after a power interruption.
Typical Applications
The Metabo KFM 18 LTX 3 RF is suitable for:
- Metal edge beveling
- Weld preparation
- Weld seam preparation
- Removing sharp edges
- Preparing steel components
- Stainless-steel fabrication
- Pipe-edge preparation
- General metal fabrication
- Industrial maintenance
- Construction and installation work
