Makita U.S.A., Inc. has launched the premium 18V LXT® Brushless 1/2" Hammer Driver-Drill (XPH14), which delivers a full 1,250 in-lbs of torque, the most in the category. Despite its powerful punch, the XPH14 is 14% smaller than its predecessor, XPH07.
The XPH14 is ergonomic and compact at only 7" in length. It features a 2-speed transmission (0–550 and 0–2,100 RPM) for drilling, fastening and hammer-drilling applications. The XPH14 is engineered to handle the most demanding drilling and driving applications in wood, masonry and steel. A 2 9/16" self-feed bit in high speed can easily bore through pine.
Additional features include an all-metal 1/2" self-ratcheting chuck, a built-in LED light and a rubberized grip.
The XPH14 also features Star Protection Computer Controls™. Star Protection is communication technology that allows the tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating.
The XPH14 features Makita’s Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™). XPT is a protective seal inside the tool engineered for improved water resistance by channeling water and dust from the tool’s key internal components. The XPT-equipped XPH14 is engineered for improved operation in harsh job site conditions.
