Enhanced performance & longevity
02 October 2015
Continuing to extend the range of 18v Lithium-ion powered cordless tools that feature a brushless motor design for enhanced performance and longevity, Makita has introduced the DFS452 LXT screwdriver which generates a maximum of 490W and will run up to 4000rpm.

he ΒΌβ hex push-drive shank will comfortably drive home a 5mm drywall screw or a 6mm self-drilling screw. Weighing a comfortable 1.7kg, and with ergonomic soft grip handle, this screwdriver has a silent clutch, variable speed trigger, one-touch locator and useful lock-on button and reverse switch option.
The Makita Brushless motor is also featured in two new cordless angle grinders β the DGA455, which runs a 115mm diameter grinding wheel, and the DGA505 which will power a 125mm grinding wheel β and the DHS680 165mm cordless circular saw.
