Solution for Corded Power Requirements at 18 Volt.
Two 18V LXT Lithium-Ion batteries provide the power and run time required for corded applications without the need to detach from the 18V LXT platform.
An electric motor manufactured by Makita delivers 0-1,250 RPM, 0-5,000 BPM, and 3.0 Joules of impact energy for rapid drilling.
The handle has been designed to be vibration-absorbing for increased comfort.
Comfort on the job is enhanced by the use of an ergonomic soft-grip handle and a large 2-finger trigger.
36.0 V is the voltage.
Description of the Produc.
The Makita 18V X2 LXT Lithium-Ion (36V) Cordless 1″ Rotary Hammer (model XRH05Z, tool only) is powered by two 18V LXT batteries, which provide the power and run time required for corded applications without requiring the user to leave the 18V platform. The XRH05Z Rotary Hammer is engineered to meet the demands of corded 1″ drilling and hammering concrete applications without the need to lug around a cord. It has 3 Joules of Impact Energy and 4,800 BPM. The XRH05Z Rotary Hammer drills holes at a rate that is up to twice that of 18V rotary hammers, resulting in up to three times the number of holes drilled. This drill has a 1″ drilling capacity (it accepts SDS-PLUS bits) and can drill at speeds ranging from 0-4,800 BPM to 0-1,200 RPM while producing a full 3.0 Joules of impact energy. The XRH05Z has many of the same features as Makita’s extensive line of rotary hammers, including three different operating modes, a one-touch sliding chuck, and a torque limiting clutch that is designed to prevent gear damage by automatically disengaging gears if the bit becomes stuck.
The following items are included in the set.
Side Handle (450990-1); Depth Gauge (324219-0); Tool Bag This is my first time reviewing something like this.. However, I have been an Amazon Prime customer for quite some time. I just felt compelled to give this Boss Hog a review.
The fact that I’m a geologist means that I can put this tool through a more rigorous testing process than most people, and the result is that this thing is a BEAST!!. Now I reside in Kentucky, where layered-cake geology is the order of the day. So your results with this tool in a large metamorphic belt or igneous complex may differ from mine, but bear with me as I explain. In a test, I used a 1″ bit and drilled 5 holes (6″ deep each) in about 20 minutes through a trio of large (15-20lbs each), solid, crystalline quartz nodules powered by a pair of 5.0 aH batteries. The results were promising. It’s a moderately lightweight device (15 pounds with the bit and batteries).. I wanted something that was small enough to throw into a backpack and carry out to the field for a couple of miles. Using this tool in conjunction with some wedges – and – shims and a crack hammer, strategically splitting large sections of rock is simple and quick. Excellent construction and exceptional durability. Every hard-rock geologist should have at least one of these!!!
