Makita XAG16Z Description
Makita delivers corded grinding performance without the cord with the 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless 4-1/2 In. / 5 In. Cut-Off/Angle Grinder with electric brake (tool only, battery and charger sold separately). It's powered by a Makita Brushless Motor for longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. For the most demanding applications, Makita's exclusive Automatic Speed Change™ technology automatically adjusts speed and torque during operation for optimal performance. The XAG16Z is ideal for grinding and cutting a wide range of materials including tile, concrete, pipe, conduit, and more. Additional features include an electric brake that stops the grinding or cut-off wheel in 2 seconds or less, and electronic torque control that turns the motor off if rotation speed suddenly slows or the wheel is forced to a stop. The variable speed control dial allows manual RPM adjustment (3,000 – 8,500), allowing the user to match the speed to the application.
