Makita (GPH01D) 40V max XGT Brushless Cordless 1/2" Hammer Driver-Drill Kit - GPH01D
The Makita XGT brushless cordless 1/2 Inch hammer driver-drill is useful for a wide range of driving or drilling applications in wood, masonry and metal. Hammer-drill mode offers operation in percussive motion that helps in drilling holes in concrete and masonry. Compact and lightweight design makes it easy to operate in confined spaces. Makita-built brushless motor delivers a torque rating of 1250 Inch-lb and two speed settings of 0 to 650 and 0 to 2600 RPM and 0 to 9750 and 0 to 39,000 BPM. Variable speed trigger provides great operating control and smooth operation. Electronic digital clutch provides 41 torque settings in low speed and 21 torque settings in high speed. If the rotation of the wheel comes to a stop, the active feedback-sensing technology turns off the motor immediately. All metal chuck facilitates smooth and easy bit changing. Extreme protection technology prevents the accumulation of water and dust on the tool even in harsh conditions. Reinforced construction of the gear endures wear and tear in jobsites. The XGT technology makes use of 40 Volt Lithium batteries to produce optimum power in high demand applications.
