Makita Launches New Versions of Popular Tools

Mak1803-DJR188Z-18v-Brushless-Recip-Saw

Makita has introduced the new versions of its popular 18V lithium-ion Brushless LXT tools: the super-safe Brushless LXT Reciprocating Saw with 20mm stroke and the 115mm and 125mm Brushless LXT Angle Grinders with ADT and AFT technology.

The new Makita DJR188Z 18v Brushless LXT Reciprocating Saw is a compact and lightweight reciprocating saw, weighting just 2.9 kg. It has a tool-less blade clamp, fixed shoe, variable speed trigger, constant speed control dial and convenient LED job light. The body housing has a full rubber protection wrap and the ergonomically designed rear D handle provides full protection, while the compact size and light weight makes it ideally suited for off-ground applications. It also features an electric brake, a lock-off button, and can be available as a body-only machine. It runs up to 3,000spm and together with its maximum stroke of 20 mm it provides a substantial cutting capacity of 255 mm in wood and 130 mm in pipe.

The new Makita 18v Brushless LXT angle grinders have the features found on premium mains machines. They can be found in two versions: the 115mm DGA463 and the 125mm DGA513 with slide switch and lock-on function, and the 115mm DGA467 and 125mm DGA517 models with paddle switch. All the models are equipped with a variable speed control dial, which allows for greater control when used with strip discs, flap discs, and polishing applications. Additionally, they benefit from soft start, battery fuel gauge, Active Feedback Sensing Technology (AFT) and Automatic Torque Drive Technology (ADT). ADT adjusts speed and torque during operation for optimum performance while AFT turns the motor off if rotation of the wheel suddenly ceases when snagged. The grinders are available as body only machines or in Makpac cases with batteries and a smart charger.

A wide range of blades and grinding wheels suitable for a vast array of materials is available in the Makita accessory range.
