Cuts noise & vibration

With xisting Makita impact drivers, the impact action is metal-to-metal, damped by springs. In the Oil Pulse version hydraulic oil is compressed by a rotary drive train and the hydraulic pressure promotes the impact action. The Makita DTS141 gives two impacts per rotation of the ¼ hex driving shank.

Whilst maximum tightening torque is limited to 40Nm the impact noise generated is significantly less than the current range. Maximum sound pressure level is 77dB(A) , while the vibration rating is 7.0m/s².
