Makita DHP486Z 18V Li-ion LXT Brushless Combi Drill - Batteries and Charger Not Included

Product Information

Newly-designed motor and gear ratio achieves more power and increases performance in continuous heavy-duty applications eXtreme Protection Technology (XPT) offers maximum protection against dust, debris and liquids for optimal performance in extreme conditions Drilling Modes: Screwdriving mode (rotation with clutch) for achieving an even consistent finish when fastening screws. Drilling mode (rotation only) achieving 40Nm max. torque. Hammer Drilling mode (rotation with hammering) for drilling in masonry up to a maximum 13mm hole diameter Compact Design – for improved handling and control the overall length has been reduced by 27mm vs. the previous model While the new DHP486 combi hammer drill does look similar to the original DHP481, Makita has confirmed that it is the most robust drill in its class, thanks to the 130 Nm of torque it offers from its brushless motor. This allows the tightening of heavy-duty fasteners, for example, a 9 x 50mm lag bolt in screwdriver mode.

Another reason users will love this new model is that it’s approximately 14% smaller than the DHP481. Measuring just 178 x 81 x 248mm, it’s more likely to fit into compact spaces, thanks to the optimised gear assembly design. Impacts Per Minute and No-Load Speed mechanical gears with an all-metal construction and metal housing for high durability and smooth power transfer in high load applications The LED light still remains in its original place – above the trigger, with twin LED’s as well as a handy after-glow function. The separate mode select collar has been eliminated to achieve a shorter length. While some people do prefer different mode select collars, the trend seems to be to remove this for the sake of a shorter drill. LED Joblight – high brightness twin LED joblight with pre-glow and after glow functions. Illuminating the working area for greater visibility during application

A brushless electronic motor runs more efficiently than brushed types. This can help reduce the tool's energy consumption. The most compact drill in its class with a 178 mm head length for comfortable handling in tight spaces
