If you're searching for a cordless drill that effortlessly balances power, precision, and portability, the Makita DHP490 18V LXT Brushless Combi Drill from ITS is a standout choice.
Designed with professionals and serious DIY enthusiasts in mind, this tool delivers robust performance without the bulk, making it ideal for a wide range of applications.
At the heart of the DHP490 is a brushless motor that delivers a maximum torque of 65Nm, ensuring efficient drilling and screwdriving across various materials.
The mechanical 2-speed gearing allows you to switch between high-speed (0–1,900 RPM) and low-speed (0–500 RPM) settings, providing versatility for both light and heavy-duty tasks. Additionally, the hammer function offers up to 28,500 impacts per minute, making it suitable for masonry work.
The drill's compact design, measuring just 172mm in length and weighing between 1.4 to 1.7 kg (including battery), ensures ease of use in tight spaces and reduces user fatigue during extended periods of operation.
The single-sleeve keyless chuck allows for quick and easy bit changes, while the built-in LED light with pre-glow and afterglow functions illuminates your work area, enhancing visibility in low-light conditions.
For added durability, the DHP490 features Makita's eXtreme Protection Technology (XPT), which provides enhanced dust and water resistance, making it suitable for use in harsh job site conditions.
The variable speed trigger offers precise control over drilling speed, and the 20-stage torque settings allow for fine adjustments to suit the task at hand.
Whether you're drilling into wood (up to 38mm), steel (13mm), or masonry (13mm), the Makita DHP490 delivers consistent performance and reliability. Its compatibility with Makita's 18V LXT battery system ensures seamless integration with your existing tools, making it a valuable addition to any toolkit.
At the heart of this tool is the brushless motor that allows you to use it efficiently. As part of the design, the tool utilizes every bit of battery power when you need, all while reducing the need for ongoing maintenance by reducing the amount of heat generated and working more efficiently.
The technology in creating a brushless motor system allows for perfect symmetry between battery power and usage ensuring you get all the power you need, when you need it.
