Makita LXT Series XFD10Z Drill Driver, Tool Only, 18 V, 1/2 in Chuck, Ratcheting Chuck

The Makita 18 V compact lithium-ion cordless 1/2 in driver-drill (model XFD10Z, tool only, battery sold separately) delivers power, performance and superior ergonomics in a compact size, with an efficient four-pole motor that delivers 480 in-lb of max torque and 25% more speed than the previous model. It's part of Makita's expanding 18 V lithium-ion series, the world's largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18 V lithium-ion slide-style battery. Makita 18 V lithium-ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls™. Star protection is communication technology that allows the star protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18 V LXT® and compact lithium-ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating star protection inside. The XFD10Z is built with an all-metal two-speed transmission (0-600 or 0-1900 rpm). It has a compact and ergonomic design with less weight and superior balance for reduced operator fatigue and a rubberized soft-grip for increased comfort on the job. The built-in LED light illuminates the job area for applications in dark spaces and close quarters. With Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™), the drill is engineered for improved water and dust resistance for operation in harsh job site conditions.
