18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless 1/2" Sq. Drive Impact Wrench, Tool Only



The Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless 1/2" Impact Wrench (model XWT04Z, tool only) delivers high-torque impact power with a 1/2" square drive that will fit impact-rated socket sets. The versatile XWT04Z packs plenty of torque for a wide range of fastening and loosening tasks, and is a powerful and convenient substitute for air powered and AC wrenches.



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.
