Makita LXT Series XDT18SY1B Sub-Compact Impact Driver Kit, Battery Included, 18 V, 1.5 Ah, 1/4 in Drive, Hex Drive

The 18 V LXT® sub-compact brushless impact driver kit (XDT18SY1B) is a fastening solution with significantly less weight. The 18 V sub-compact impact driver offers the size and weight of lower voltage tools, but with the performance, power and compatibility of 18 V. It has an efficient brushless motor with two speed settings and dual LED lights illuminate the work area. The innovative assist mode (A-mode) helps eliminate screw cam-out and cross threading by driving at low speed until tightening begins and is ideal for driving longer fasteners. It delivers 1240 in-lb of max torque. At only 5-1/4 in and 2.6 lb (with 2 Ah battery), it is a fastening solution with great comfort and handling. It's part of Makita's expanding 18 V LXT system, the world's largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita® 18 V LXT 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 lithium-ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.

Has battery capacity 1.5 Ah, battery type Lithium-Ion, drive size 1/4 in.

Application

For working in tight spaces

• Compact and ergonomic design at only 5-1/4 in long
• Weighs only 2.6 lb with battery for reduced operator fatigue
• Variable 2-speed (0 to 1300, 0 to 3000 rpm and 0 to 2000, 0 to 4100 ipm) for a wide range of fastening applications
• Ball bearing design is engineered to minimize bit wobble when fastening
• Ergonomically designed handle with rubberized soft grip provides increased comfort
• Efficient BL™ brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge
• The BL™ brushless motor eliminates carbon brushes, enabling the BL motor to run cooler and more efficiently for longer life
• The electronically-controlled BL™ brushless motor efficiently uses energy to match torque and rpm to the changing demands of the application
• Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) is engineered for improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh conditions
• Only use genuine Makita batteries and chargers
