Makita LXDT01 18V LXT Lithium-ion Cordless Brushless Motor Impact Driver
Makita is proud to announce the release of its new 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 3-Speed Brushless Motor Impact Driver, model LXDT01. This powerful and versatile impact driver features Makita brushless motor technology, engineered to run more efficiently for up to 20% longer battery life per charge. The 3-speed power selection switch provides the user with precise fastening control for a wide range of applications, from fastening cabinet screws to driving lag bolts.
3-Speed Power Control and Brushless Motor Technology
The Makita-built brushless motor with 3-speed power selection offers soft, medium and hard impact power to cover a wide range of fastening tasks:
- Soft impact setting: 0-1,300 RPM, 0-1,300 IPM, and 220 in.lbs. of Max Torque for small fasteners such as hinge screws for woodworking.
- Medium impact setting: 0-2,000 RPM, 0-2,800 IPM, and 490 in.lbs. of Max Torque for medium sized fasteners such as drywall screws.
- Hard impact setting: 0-2,600 RPM, 0-3,400 IPM and 1,460 in. lbs. of Max Torque for large fasteners such as lag bolts.
Makita’s Brushless Motor Technology delivers increased motor efficiency to provide up to 20% longer battery life per charge. With the motor’s more efficient power, the LXDT01 has a more compact design at just 5-1/2” in length and only 3.3 lbs. with an 18V LXT Lithium-Ion battery.
The built-in L.E.D. light has an independent on/off switch to illuminate the work surface, when needed. In addition, a battery warning light and the built-in L.E.D. light both flash when it is time to recharge the
battery. The LXDT01 has a “one-touch” ¼” hex chuck for simple bit insertion and a tool hook for
increased efficiency.
