The 40V max XGT Brushless Cordless 4-Speed Mid-Torque 1/2" Sq. Drive Impact Wrench with Friction Ring Anvil (GWT07Z, tool only) provides improved fastening control, ideal for automotive, installation, and fabrication trades. The impact wrench combines extended run time and speed control for unmatched fastening performance. The GWT07Z is powered by a Makita-built motor for longer run time. The brushless motor delivers 560 ft.lbs. of Fastening Torque and 810 ft.lbs. of Nut-Busting Torque. The electronically controlled brushless motor efficiently uses energy to match torque and RPM to the changing demands of the application. Precise fastening control is achieved through the 4-speed power selection switch, which accounts for a wide range of applications. Additional precision features include three forward and three reverse rotation auto-stop modes, and a full-speed mode function that reduces the trigger pull to reach full speed. The GWT07Z features the exclusive Extreme Protection Technology (XPT), a protective seal inside the tool. It is designed to improve a tool's operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components.
OUTPOWER: Makita-built motor delivers 810 ft.lbs. of Nut-Busting Torque and 560 ft.lbs. of Fastening Torque
OUTSMART: 3 forward and 3 reverse Auto-Stop modes for increased efficiency
OUTLAST: XPT is engineered to provide increased dust and water resistance in harsh job site conditions
4-speed power selection switch (0-600 / 0-1,200 / 0-1,900 / 0-2,300 RPM & 0-1,200 / 0-1,900 / 0-2,700 / 0-2,900 IPM) for a wide range of applications
Full speed mode function reduces trigger pull to reach full speed
Compact and ergonomic design at only 6-11/16
Ultra-smooth variable speed trigger provides optimum control
Reinforced gear housing engineered for maximum job site durability
Flexible joint isolates the battery from the grip to help reduce wear on the battery contacts
The digital communication within XGT optimizes performance to provide up to 2X longer sustained power under heavy-load applications
The digital communication within XGT actively monitors and protects against overload, over-discharge and overheating
XGT Tools and Batteries are designed with a multi-layer contact interface for more constant power delivery to take on high-current demands
XGT Batteries feature rigid rails with impact-resistant construction to secure the battery to the tool during high-demand applications (batteries not included)
