Makita’s XPT system, or Extreme Protection Technology, enhances the durability of their cordless tools, making them more resistant to dust and water ingress in tough weather conditions. A prime example of this robust technology is the DTD154Z, a cordless impact driver. It’s a powerhouse driven by an 18V Li-ion battery, notable for its absence in the package, and offers a three-stage impact power selection (High, Medium, and Low). This versatility allows it to deliver up to 3800 ipm and 3600 rpm.

Impact drivers like the DTD154Z excel in tasks such as driving long screws into wood, a challenging feat for regular drills even with pre-drilled holes. Makita’s range includes models like the DTD152Z and the high-torque DTD156Z, each designed for specific applications from tightening self-drilling screws to handling large-scale construction tasks.

Makita leads in brushless motor technology, and their 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Oil Impulse Brushless Cordless 3-Speed Impact Driver (XST01Z) exemplifies this. It combines speed, power, and ergonomic design with significantly reduced noise levels. Another standout is the XDT16T, offering four speed options and Makita’s exclusive Quick-Shift Mode for enhanced fastening control.

The DTW300Z impact wrench, powered by an 18V Li-ion LXT slide type battery, showcases a brushless motor, variable speed, and a four-stage impact power selection, delivering up to 4000 ipm, 3200 rpm, and 580 Nm nut-busting torque. Notably, G-Series batteries are incompatible with the LXT range.

Makita’s 18V LXT Range, boasting nearly 300 models, is among the world’s largest collections of 18V power tools. The range encompasses everything from compact impact drivers to high-torque models, catering to both professional and DIY needs.
