Makita Cordless Impact Drivers

Makita Cordless Impact Driver

If you’ve got a commercial project coming up and need reliable, robust tools for driving screws and fastenings, impact drivers are a must. A Makita Cordless Impact Driver offers cable-free flexibility so you can work quickly and efficiently while ensuring high-quality results.

What is the difference between a cordless driver and a cordless impact driver?

Whether you’re building large wooden structures or bolting metal, a cordless impact driver is an essential toolkit component. While both cordless drivers (including drills and screwdrivers) and cordless impact drivers are free from cables so you can move around easily, impact drivers can create stronger connections. 

Cordless impact drivers are shaped like drills, but they apply far more force. The main features that set an impact driver apart are its high level of torque, hammer mechanism, and ability to work in quick bursts of high power. The Makita DTD156Z 18v LXT Cordless Impact Driver, for example, can deliver an impressive 3,000 impacts per minute.

By drilling at a constant, steady speed in automatic bursts, cordless impact drivers are ideal for driving large screws and fasteners into materials such as steel and hardwood.

FAQs

How to tell if a motor is brushed or brushless?

When you buy a cordless impact driver, the specifications should detail whether it has a brushed or brushless motor. Brushless motors tend to be quieter than brushed ones as there are fewer moving parts. They may also be more compact. However, tools with brushless motors may come at a slightly higher price point.

What replaces brushes in a brushless motor?

In a brushless motor, you’ll find electronic circuits instead of brushes. These circuits work by switching the current in the motor’s coils to manage the motor’s rotation.

Do brushless motors wear out more quickly than brushed motors?

Brushless motors are extremely durable. The lack of brushes means less internal friction, heat, resulting in longer runtime from your batteries and fewer maintenance needs. Brushless motors, like those in many of our Makita cordless impact drivers, are long-lasting.
