Which Makita set is best? ›

18V LXT Cordless Hammer Drill/Impact Driver Combo Kit XT269T

In the case of the best Makita drill combo, I have to go with the 18V LXT XT269T hammer drill/impact driver combo kit. This kit includes the XPH12 brushless hammer drill, XDT13 brushless impact driver, two 5.0Ah batteries, a charger, and a storage bag.

If ergonomics and innovation in battery technology are priorities, Makita may be your best choice. For those needing durable, high-performance tools for more rigorous tasks, Dewalt stands out as the potentially better option. At Bell Tools Gloucester, we stock a wide range of both Makita and Dewalt products.

Makita tools are crafted from high-quality materials, ensuring durability and longevity. Premium materials contribute to the overall reliability and performance of Makita tools, justifying their higher cost. Makita invests significantly in research and development to continually innovate and improve its tool designs.

A power drill is an adjustable-speed tool that drills and drives in fasteners. Its head features a keyed or keyless chuck that holds the bits securely in place. An impact driver is more compact and lightweight by design. Impact drivers have more torque and use a quick-change clamp to hold bits with a hexagonal shank.

Newton Metres (Nm) on drills:

4 to 15Nm is fine for all of those smaller screw driver tasks around the home. 15 to 35Nm is a great all-rounder to drill and drive medium sizes screws and hole drilling.

Mid-range cordless drills generally have a torque rating of around 55 Nm. Entry-level models, which generally have a 14.4 V – 1.2 Ah battery, offer 16 Nm, 25 Nm or even 30 Nm. Professional cordless drills have tightening torques of 60 Nm, 85 Nm, 100 Nm or even 135 Nm.

Torque combined with angle tightening methods can reduce the uncertainty in the tightening process by reducing the reliance on torque control alone. For every 360 degree rotation of the bolt, the nut advances down the thread by a fixed number of millimetres on a given bolt.

For a standard drill with a chuck that grabs the bit, according to Makita's instructions, you need to turn the sleeve to open the prongs — counterclockwise opens the chuck jaws and clockwise closes them back up.

For larger bits, loosen the chuck by hand until the bit fits inside the chuck. For smaller bits, tighten the chuck by hand until the bit sits centered between the jaws. Tighten the chuck onto the bit as much as possible by hand before placing the key in the chuck.

What is better, Makita LXT or G series? ›

The G-Series offers the same power as the LXT range, but is not as efficient. All the batteries are designed differently to help ensure you don't put the wrong one in your tool and damage it.

Today, LXT® is the preferred cordless tool system on commercial and residential job sites, boasting the industry's largest collection of 18V tools and accessories, along with the industry's fastest 18V battery charge times.

Succinctly stated, the CXT tools are 2 lb class, while the LXT sub-compacts hover around the 3 lb range. There is also some size disadvantage regarding the 18V LXT batteries, and overall, the CXT batteries are easily one-half the size of the larger 18V LXT power packs.

The “LXT” in Makita LXT stands for “Lithium-Ion eXtreme Technology.” It signifies Makita's use of lithium-ion battery technology in their power tools. The LXT series is known for delivering extended battery life, faster charging times, and overall enhanced performance compared to traditional power tool batteries.
