Description
The Makita DLX2549TJ 18V LXT Brushless Twin Kit combines the powerful DHP492 Combi Drill with the compact DTD173 Impact Driver, providing a versatile cordless solution for drilling, hammer drilling and screwdriving. Supplied with two BL1850B 5.0Ah batteries, a DC18RC charger and a Makpac Type 3 carry case, this kit is ideal for tradespeople working on installation, construction, joinery and maintenance projects.
Both tools feature brushless motors and operate on Makita’s established 18V LXT lithium-ion battery platform, allowing the supplied batteries to be shared with compatible tools across the LXT range.
DHP492 Brushless Combi Drill
The Makita DHP492 delivers up to 141Nm maximum torque, providing the power needed for demanding drilling and fastening applications. Its drilling, hammer drilling and screwdriving functions make it suitable for working in timber, steel and masonry with the appropriate accessories.
A two-speed gearbox offers a choice of lower-speed control or faster drilling, while 21 torque settings help tailor screwdriving performance to the task. The redesigned speed-change mechanism helps prevent gear disengagement, and revised controller protection enhances protection of the electronic components during variable-speed operation.
A keyless chuck makes changing bits straightforward, while the LED work light improves visibility. Electronic overload protection, battery protection and an electric brake support controlled operation.
DTD173 Brushless Impact Driver
The Makita DTD173 combines 180Nm maximum fastening torque with a compact body measuring just 111mm long, making it well suited to fastening work where access is restricted.
Its four-stage electronic impact power selection allows the output to be adjusted to suit different fasteners and materials. Variable-speed trigger control helps manage driving speed, while the quick mode-switching button and application-mode memory make it easier to move between tasks.
The balanced design and slim grip support comfortable handling. An anti-wobble bit mechanism improves bit stability, and the integrated LED work light features pre-glow, afterglow and dimming functions for visibility in darker working areas.
