MAKITA (2873)

18V LXT is MAKITA's mature, widest platform with hundreds of tools — ideal for general trade, carpentry and maintenance. 40V XGT is the next-generation high-power platform designed to replace corded tools in demanding applications such as large angle grinders (230 mm), concrete vibrators and industrial sprayers. Batteries between platforms are not interchangeable without an adapter.

MAKITA accessories use standard arbour and shank sizes (SDS-Plus, SDS-Max, 1/4-inch hex) so they fit most competing power tools of the same type. However, MAKITA accessories are calibrated to MAKITA motor speeds and torque profiles, so performance is best when matched with MAKITA tools.

Yes. DistriNode stocks MAKITA battery and charger combo sets (such as the 198091-4 set) as well as individual batteries and rapid chargers across both the 18V LXT and 40V XGT platforms. Check the Cordless Drills and Power Tools categories for current stock.
