Makita DTD154Z 18V Li-Ion LXT Brushless Impact Driver - Batteries and Charger Not Included, Blue

Product Information

A perfect all-rounder, great performance, very reliable and incredible value. It’s no wonder that it’s the most popular impact out there. Its electronically controlled 18V Li-ion battery is optimized to provide 50 per cent high runtime. The device is integrated with Battery Protection Circuit that keeps the cells safe in case of over-discharge, voltage spikes and high temperature. Included charger has a forced cooling system. It has an inbuilt fan that brings down the heat level of a battery so that its internal cells improve and perform in a better way. Battery Protection Circuit keeps the cell safe, so none of the high voltage, extra temperature or over-discharge can harm it. As it uses lithium-ion technology, the device gets fade-free power.

The DTD153 has been developed based on the DTD129 and has a no-load speed of 3,400 rpm, providing up to 3,600 impacts per minute. This high percussive action saves time and effort, driving screws up to 30% faster than a conventional drill/driver. When using high powered impact drivers, no pilot hole is needed, even into hardwood. Product Weight:How heavy is the tool? Holding a tool all day can cause muscle strain so the lower the better. Makita’s Best impact driversMax Torque (Nm): Torque is the force that causes an object to rotate. In the case of impact drivers, the higher it is, the more powerful, and therefore the tougher material and larger screws you can fasten.

TD111DSAJ is a boss tool to work with M5 to M14 standard bolts, M5 to M12 high tensile bolts, M4 to M8 machine screw, and coarse threaded screws 22 to 90mm. It has three impact modes: low, high and the latest A (Impact) mode. The advanced A method prevents any screws cross threading and cam-out by reducing the drive speed once the tightening starts. Our top recommendation is a brushed impact driver available at half the price of other Makita brushed tools. The primary factor to its fame is its torque of 165Nm, which makes DTD152Z a top contender; especially looking at its price. To tell you in a better way, wheel lug nuts of an average-sized sedan needs 110Nm to fasten. Machine Screw Size: This will determine what size of Machine screws you can use with the impact driver. eXtreme Protection Technology (XPT) offers maximum protection against dust, debris and liquids for optimal performance in extreme conditions Impact Rate: This determines the number of times the hammer action strikes the bit in a minute. The higher the impact rate, the faster you’ll be able to drive screws.High quality and ultra-compact impact drivers come with a brushless motor and maximum torque of 175Nm. It gives you complete control with a three-stage power trigger and TEK mode, which prevents over fastening of screws. Heavy duty, with an ULTRA-COMPACT design at just 117mm long and the Brushless DC Motor make the DTD154 impact driver one of Makita's best tools to date. It has an electronic 3 stage impact power selector + TEK mode selection which prevents over tightening of fasteners. It's high rotational speed of 3,600rpm and max torque of 175Nm makes it one of the top performers in its class. Hence the device runs efficiently for longer that also without overheating. Moreover, the integrated XPT protects the device from extreme dirt, debris and liquid to maintain the performance and discourage downtime. If your job involves driving screws into concrete or hardwood, then the Makita DTD152Z can be your best alley. You might also want to consider a few other options we have mentioned as runner ups. Ergonomics: The ergonomics of an impact driver are important for comfort and control. Look for a tool that has a comfortable grip and a well-balanced design

Part of Makita CXT series, TD111DSAJ uses a brushless motor that eliminates carbon brushing. It’s the reason why the impact device runs efficiently for a long time without overheating. It uses this saved energy to provide the given RPM, speed and torque to match the demand of materials as well as working conditions. Lightweight: Impact drivers can be heavy, so it's important to choose one that is lightweight if you plan on using it for extended periods of timeBrushless Motor: Is the impact brushed or brushless? Brushless motored tools are more efficient and have fewer moving parts. Talking about the weight, its 998 grams, but this driver with battery (18V 3.0Ah) weighs 1.21 kg. The given heft will not bring you down even if you have to work for an entire day. The rotation speed of this device is also comparatively higher. These are the reasons why the DTD154Z is one of the top performers when we talk about wooden projects. Powered by an 18V Li-ion battery, the power tool supports M4 to M8 machine screws, M5 to M16 standard bolts, M5 to M14 high strength bolts and 22 to 125mm coarse threaded screws. Its brushless motor eliminates carbon brushes. Makita started the cordless power tools production in the 1970s, but Dewalt was nowhere around it until 1990s. But once the brand got involved, it blew almost all the competitors out of the ground. Overall, we cannot declare a winner among any of them in terms of performance.

Features: Consider the features of the impact driver. Some models have features such as a built-in LED light, a belt clip, and a variable speed trigger Another powerful impact tool with a brushless motor that delivers a maximum torque of 175Nm. Due to brushless functionality, DTD153Z never utilizes carbon brushes. Hence the device runs efficiently without any overheating. Maximum vibration generated by the device is 13.5 m/sec², and the sound level is 97 dB. Overall, DTD171Z excels in all the departments except one: the battery is not included.Battery protection system provides over-discharge, temperature and current protection for enhanced performance, battery cycle life and overall battery life RPM/Load Speed : As you add a “load” (screw etc), you will start to see your RPM (Revolutions per minute / speed) lower. No Load speed measures the absolute maximum speed of the tool. There is a push button to change the movement from forward to reverse and vice versa. For enhanced safety and convenience, the device has electric brakes as well as LED lights on its front. Moreover, it’s built with an ergonomic grip that gives you comfortable handling and minimum wrist stress. Easily identified by its grey and blue colour, the device works well with standard screws measuring M4 to M8, M5 to M14 standard bolt, M5 to M12 high tensile bolt, and coarse thread of 22 to 125mm. Its 18V power offers 1.3 Amp of battery power and a runtime up to 60 minutes, only if you use the G-Series DC18WA charger (separately available).
