Makita XDT19T 18V LXT® Brushless Cordless 4-Speed Impact Driver Kit for Professionals

Makita has established a notable legacy in the realm of cordless impact drivers, exemplified by its 18V LXT® Brushless 4-Speed Impact Driver (XDT19), which raises the bar for performance and functionality. This impact driver features an impressive 4-speed power selection, offering settings of 0-1,100, 0-2,100, 0-3,200, and 0-3,600 RPM, along with impulse modes ranging from 0-1,100 to 0-3,800 IPM. Such versatility allows for precise fastening control, making it suitable for a diverse range of applications.

One of the standout features of the XDT19 is its Assist Mode (A-mode), designed specifically to combat common issues like "screw cam-out" and "cross threading." By operating at a slower speed before reaching the tightening phase, this mode significantly reduces mistakes during usage. Additionally, the device includes two Tightening Modes (T-mode), which facilitate the quick tightening of self-drilling screws, whether in thick or thin gauge metal, while also protecting both the screw itself and the workpiece from damage.

In terms of performance, the XDT19 embodies a compact and ergonomic design without compromising on power. Its advanced features include a convenient one-touch 4-speed power selector button located under the chuck, allowing for effortless speed adjustments with just one hand. Furthermore, the reverse rotation auto-stop mode is a valuable addition, halting rotation and impact when the fastener has been loosened sufficiently to avoid over-loosening and prevent dropped fasteners.

This impact driver is part of Makita's extensive 18V LXT® system, recognized as the world's largest cordless tool system powered by 18V Lithium-Ion batteries. The 18V LXT® batteries are noted for their quick charge times, enabling users to focus on productivity rather than waiting for tools to charge.

To enhance tool performance and extend battery lifespan, Makita employed its patented Star Protection Computer Controls™. This innovative technology allows for real-time communication between the battery and the Star Protection-equipped tool, effectively monitoring usage conditions to protect against concerns such as overloading, over-discharging, and overheating. Moreover, to extend its versatility, the XDT19 can be operated with both Makita 18V LXT® and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries featuring the star symbol, indicating the presence of Star Protection technology.

Additionally, the Quick-Shift Mode utilizes the electronic controls of the brushless motor to determine the optimal blend of speed and torque for each specific application, thus facilitating more efficient fastening. The Makita-built brushless motor is capable of delivering a maximum RPM of 3,600 and an impressive maximum torque of 1,590 in.lbs.

In summary, the XDT19 represents a significant advancement in impact driver technology, offering an array of features designed to enhance user experience and operational efficiency. With its combination of power, control, and smart technologies, it is a valuable addition to any toolbox, catering to both professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike.
