Makita XWT14Z 18V LXT Cordless 4-Speed Impact Wrench for Professionals

Makita's 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 4-speed 1/2" Square Drive Impact Wrench (XWT14Z) is specifically designed to enhance fastening control, making it an ideal choice for professionals in automotive, installation, and fabrication fields. This impact wrench merges extended battery life with speed management to deliver exceptional fastening capabilities.

The tool is powered by Makita's robust brushless motor, which ensures a longer run time. This efficient motor generates a maximum torque of 240 ft.lbs. and an impressive nut-busting torque of 430 ft.lbs. Users can achieve precise fastening due to the 4-speed power selection switch, accommodating various tasks. Additionally, the tool features three forward and three reverse auto-stop modes, enhancing efficiency by halting when fasteners are sufficiently loosened. The full-speed mode function simplifies operation by minimizing the trigger pull needed to reach top speed.

Designed with durability in mind, the XWT14Z incorporates Makita's Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™). This innovation features a protective seal inside the tool to improve performance in harsh environments by diverting water and dust away from critical internal components. The impact wrench is part of Makita's expansive 18V LXT system, which is the largest cordless tool system globally, powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. This versatile system enables users to transition from power tools to outdoor equipment seamlessly, ensuring job completion.

Makita's 18V LXT batteries are known for having the fastest charging times in their categories, allowing users to spend more time working rather than waiting for their batteries to charge. It's important to note that batteries are sold separately. To enhance both tool performance and battery longevity, Makita has integrated Star Protection Computer Controls™ in their products. This communication technology enables real-time data exchange between the Star Protection-equipped tool and the battery, effectively monitoring usage conditions to guard against overloading, overheating, and over-discharging.

For added versatility, the impact wrench is compatible with any Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion battery featuring the star symbol, indicating built-in Star Protection. The efficient BL Brushless Motor not only delivers a maximum torque of 240 ft.lbs. but is also designed to optimize battery energy consumption, extending run time by up to 50% per charge. This electronically controlled motor adjusts torque and RPM to meet the demands of varied applications effectively.

In terms of design, the XWT14Z features a compact and ergonomic structure, measuring just 5-5/8 inches in length, which enhances usability during extended periods of operation. The tool also includes a built-in LED light with a separate on/off switch, illuminating the work area for improved visibility. Weighing in at only 4.0 lbs. with the battery (not included), this impact wrench is lightweight enough to reduce operator fatigue, making it a practical tool for any tradesperson seeking efficiency and reliability.
