Overview

Not a kit, the Makita XWT08Z is a tool-only impact wrench with a hex head and a socket end, finished in brushed alloy steel and iron. The listing says its battery and charger are sold separately.

High listed torque makes it suitable for stubborn nuts and lug bolts, and a bare tool suits owners who already have batteries. The limitation is that nothing in the box powers it.

Who it's for

Lug nuts, equipment bolts and construction fasteners where torque is needed are the typical jobs. A buyer starting a battery platform from zero should look at a kit.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • High listed torque
  • Tool-only for battery owners
  • Three year warranty
  • Alloy steel and iron
Cons
  • Battery and charger not included
  • Heavy to hold overhead
  • Non-sparking not available
  • Short length listed only

Performance notes

An impact mechanism delivers rotational blows, so torque rather than speed drives stubborn fasteners loose. Battery charge and temperature affect output, and a fresh pack sustains the listed figure longest.
