About this deal

The Makita DHP486Z 18V LXT Brushless Hammer Driver Drill provides 130Nm of maximum fastening torque and no load speed of 2,100rpm combining rapid drilling speeds with high levels of torque. This model is based on the DHP481, but has been redesigned with a newly designed motor and gear ratio achieving not only more power but also increasing the performance in continuous heavy-duty applications. Not only has the performance on the DHP481 been increased but it is also considerably shorter. At 178mm in length this model is 27mm shorter than the DHP481. Making it the most compact drill in its class and extremely comfortable to use in all applications. Brushless BLDC motor specially designed to provide, above all, more work amount on a single full battery charge

Specifications such as Impacts Per Minute and No-Load Speed remain equal to those of the DHP481, with a max of 31,500 ipm and a No Load max speed of 2,100 rpm. Some users don’t appreciate an RPM over 2,000, as when using larger drill bits, the drill struggles. With a max RPM of 2,100 on the highest setting, the option of a lower gear and thus a lower RPM of up to 550 rotations per minute is welcome. Users have regularly favoured higher RPMs over the years, possibly for no other reason than that they look good on paper! Speed Mechanical Gearing – high speed mode produces 2,100rpm for rapid drilling speed while low speed produces high levels of torque to suit high load operation. High Power Output– This model has been redesigned with a newly designed motor and gear ratio achieving not only more power but also increasing the performance in continuous heavy-duty applications.

For this article, we’re going to keep it simple and only concentrate on the base models (the first 6 digits). All of the drills I’m about to mention are available in a variety of kits. A brushless electronic motor runs more efficiently than brushed types. This can help reduce the tool's energy consumption.

On the other side of the coin if you’re after Makita’s most powerful combi, then look no further than their 40V XGT range, which includes a combi, you can see that here. But for now, let’s focus our attention on 18V LXT. At the time of writing this, there are 9 models on the market and I am going to do what I can to break them down for you. A note about model numbers Compact Design – for improved handling and control the overall length has been reduced by 27mm vs. the previous model The Makita DHP485 has more torque compared to the DHP484. This will help drilling performance, but you will really see the benefits of more torque when using as a screwdriver, more torque will help you better tighten screws, and loosen tighter screws.

All metal gear construction – allow for smoothly transfer of power in high load applications. While the highly durable materials ensure this tool has unmatched durability, and will continue to perform in years to come. Another reason users will love this new model is that it’s approximately 14% smaller than the DHP481. Measuring just 178 x 81 x 248mm, it’s more likely to fit into compact spaces, thanks to the optimised gear assembly design. Impacts Per Minute and No-Load Speed

However, 100 RPM difference between the two will not be that noticeable with most tasks. If its home use, all the drivers and drills are the same to you. A tradesperson however can kill one of the plastic drills (gears) in 12 months. my son seems to be getting a tool fixed under warranty about every 4 months or so, so is always upgrading anyway.Drilling Modes– screwdriving mode (rotation with clutch) for achieving an even consistent finish when fastening screws. Drilling mode (rotation only) achieving 141Nm max. torque. Hammer Drilling mode (rotation with hammering) on the for drilling in masonry up to a maximum 16mm hole diameter.
