18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Oil-Impulse 3-Speed Impact Driver, Tool Only

Makita is the innovation leader in brushless motor technology, and the 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Oil Impulse Brushless Cordless 3-Speed Impact Driver (XST01Z) changes the game in fastening with all the speed, power and ergonomic advantages that contractors demand while significantly decreasing noise level during operation. The XST01Z (tool only) features Oil Impulse™ Technology, which utilizes oil viscosity to hydraulically drive the impact mechanism for up to 30% less noise. In addition, the 3-speed selector with Quick Shift Mode™ provides the user with precise fastening control for a range of applications. The Makita BL™ Brushless Motor is engineered for longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. The XST01Z features Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™), engineered for increased dust and water resistance for operation in harsh job site conditions. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion series, the world’s largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style battery. Makita 18V 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 18V LXT® and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.
