18V LXT® Lithium‑Ion Compact Brushless Cordless 1/2" Hammer Driver‑Drill (5.0Ah)

The Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless ½” Hammer Driver-Drill (XPH12T) is an ideal drilling and driving solution for the user who wants more features.

The XPH12T combines 530 in.lbs. of Max Torque with an efficient brushless motor that delivers up 50% more work per charge, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. For the pro user, this means more drilling and driving power, greater productivity, and fewer trips up and down the scaffolding or ladder to get to the battery charger. In driver mode, the adjustable torque settings provide more control for a full range of applications, from large fasteners to smaller, delicate screws. For drilling into masonry, simply switch to the percussive hammer driver-drill setting. It weighs only 4.2 lbs. (with battery) for increased comfort and superior power-to-weight ratio. The kit includes two efficient 18V LXT® 5.0Ah batteries, and each reach a full charge in only 45 minutes – the fastest charge-time in the category – for less downtime and increased productivity.

It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion series, the world’s largest cordless tool line-up powered by 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style batteries. 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.
