Makita 18V Sub-Compact Brushless Cordless Impact Wrench

Makita has introduced a new class of cordless tools with its 18V LXT® sub-compact line. These tools combine the compact handling of a 12V tool with the runtime and compatibility of an 18V system, making them a versatile addition to the world's largest 18V Lithium-Ion cordless tool lineup.

One standout tool in the 18V LXT® sub-compact line is the Brushless 3/8” square drive impact wrench, designed for tight spaces and overhead tasks. The XWT12ZB features a powerful Makita BL™ Brushless motor that offers up to 50% longer runtime, increased power and speed, and a longer tool life. With variable two-speed settings of 0-1, 300/0-2, 400 RPM and 0-2, 000/0-3, 600 IPM, users can enjoy up to 130 ft.Lbs. of maximum torque.

Designed with operator comfort in mind, this compact wrench is lightweight and reduces fatigue during extended use, particularly in overhead applications. It also includes a reverse rotation auto-stop mode that halts rotation and impact once the fastener is adequately loosened. Other convenient features include a variable speed trigger, built-in L.E.D. lights, and a 3/8” square drive for quick socket changes.

To ensure durability in harsh conditions, the wrench is equipped with Makita's extreme protection technology (XPT™), which includes a protective seal inside the tool to channel water and dust away from key components. The tool is part of Makita's expanding 18V LXT® system, known for its fast-charging batteries that maximize uptime on the job.

For enhanced tool performance and battery lifespan, Makita integrated Star protection Computer controls™ into its design. This communication technology allows the tool and battery to exchange real-time data and monitor conditions to prevent overloading, over-discharging, and overheating. Additionally, the tool is compatible with both Makita 18V LXT® and compact Lithium-Ion batteries with Star protection technology.

With its BL Brushless motor delivering 130 ft.Lbs. of maximum torque, variable 2-speed settings, reverse rotation auto-stop mode, and compact ergonomic design, the Makita 18V LXT® sub-compact Brushless 3/8” square drive impact wrench is a versatile and reliable tool for a wide range of applications. It weighs only 2.7 lbs (battery not included) and measures just 5-5/8", making it a lightweight and ergonomic option for professionals.
