Makita XDT19Z 18V LXT® Brushless 4-Speed Impact Driver

Makita has a long-standing reputation for innovation in the realm of cordless impact drivers, and its 18V LXT® Brushless 4-Speed Impact Driver (XDT19Z) introduces remarkable advancements in this category. The XDT19 comprises four distinct power settings (0-1,100 / 0-2,100 / 0-3,200 / 0-3,600 RPM and 0-1,100 / 0-2,600 / 0-3,600 / 0-3,800 IPM), enabling precise control for fastening various applications.

One of the standout features of this impact driver is the Assist Mode (A-mode), designed to mitigate issues like "screw cam-out" and "cross threading." This mode operates at a lower speed until the fastening process starts, ensuring better securement. Furthermore, it includes two Tightening Modes (T-mode), which facilitate the quick tightening of self-drilling screws in either thick or thin gauge metals, thus minimizing the risk of damaging the screw or the workpiece.

The XDT19 is engineered for superior performance while maintaining a compact and ergonomic design. To enhance user convenience, a one-touch 4-speed power selector button is located beneath the chuck, allowing for effortless speed adjustments with one hand. Additionally, the reverse rotation auto-stop feature halts both rotation and impact when the fastener is sufficiently loosened, effectively preventing over-loosening and dropped fasteners.

As part of Makita’s extensive 18V LXT® system—recognized as the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V Lithium-Ion batteries—the XDT19 is designed for efficiency. The batteries within this system boast the fastest charge times in their class, ensuring that tools spend more time in action rather than on the charger.

To optimize tool performance and prolong battery life, Makita introduces Star Protection Computer Controls™, a communication technology that enables real-time data exchange between the equipped tool and battery. This system actively monitors usage conditions to safeguard against overloading, overheating, and over-discharging, enhancing overall durability and reliability. For added flexibility, Makita also allows the tool to be powered by its 18V LXT® and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries marked with the star symbol, which indicates the presence of Star Protection.

The Quick-Shift Mode leverages the electronic controls of the brushless motor to find an optimal balance of speed and torque tailored for each specific application, leading to more efficient fastening. The powerful Makita-built brushless motor achieves a maximum RPM of 3,600 and delivers an impressive maximum torque of 1,590 in.lbs.

The combination of a 4-speed power selection for precise fastening control across diverse tasks, coupled with features that enhance usability—such as the convenient one-touch speed selector and Assist Mode—solidify the XDT19 as a leading choice for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike. Makita's commitment to innovation and user-centric design is evident in the XDT19, making it an essential tool for any toolkit.
