increased flexibility of cordless – making XGT the ideal solution for high demand, industrial applications.
•
“The complete solution of our existing LXT 18V system and the new XGT 40V platform offers even more battery-powered solutions for a truly cordless job site.”
What’s in the range?
Makita has launched a number of new products for the 40V XGT platform, each suited to high demand applications – including cutting, grinding, drilling and fixing. To maximise on site efficiency, the tools are designed to offer outstanding performance, ease of use and operator safety.
The new 40V XGT line-up includes: • TD001G Impact Driver - delivering 220Nm of max torque and ten tightening modes.
• HP001G Combi-Hammer Drill - providing 140Nm of max torque and 41 electronical clutch settings.
• GA004G, GA005G, GA012G and GA013G Angle Grinders - offering the same power as 1,100W corded grinders.
• HR003G and HR004G SDS-Plus Combination Hammers – which include antivibration technology and benefit from a HEPA filter dust collection system.
• HS004G Circular Saw - with a no. load •
speed of 6,000RPM, 480 bevel capacity and AWS wireless connection facility for use with compatible dust extractors.
JR001G Reciprocating Saw – achieving 255mm capacity in wood and Ø130mm capacity in pipe.
All models are available as body only machines, or complete models with battery, charger and ADP10 Adaptor for charging LXT 18V batteries via the XGT 40V charger.
To improve durability, the new XGT tools also benefit from Makita’s Brushless motor. As there are no moving parts within the motor causing friction, wear and tear and ongoing maintenance costs are minimised. No friction also means that no energy is lost through heat production, which increases run times and keeps you working for longer - as you do not have to regularly stop to replace or recharge the batteries.
To support the new product range, Makita has also launched a selection of accessories. The 40V batteries can be purchased individually and are available in 2.5Ah and 4.0Ah versions. To minimise operator fatigue – and maximise on-site productivity – the batteries are light weight. For example, the 2.5Ah XGT batteries weigh just 100g more than 18V LXT alternatives.
To charge the batteries, Makita has launched the DC40RA 40V Max fast
charger. Due to the smart system, the DC40RA offers optimised charging. For example, a 2.5Ah XGT battery can be charged in just 28 minutes and a 4.0Ah battery in 45 minutes.
For those that are currently using Makita’s LXT products, Makita has developed an adaptor that allows you to charge your LXT batteries using the XGT charger. This makes changing between tools effortless. With the adaptor, LXT batteries charge in just 22 minutes (for 3.0Ah LXT batteries) up to 40 minutes (for 6.0Ah LXT batteries).
To launch the new XGT range, Makita UK will also be offering a new redemption deal on selected models, so contractors can claim an extra 40V battery completely FREE of charge!
