The Makita XBP03T is the complete kit version of the XBP03Z compact band saw. It bundles the saw with two BL1850B 5.0Ah batteries, a DC18RC Rapid Optimum Charger, a 20 in. contractor tool bag, a hex wrench, and a 14 TPI compact band saw blade. The XBP03Z's compact frame, single-speed 630 ft./min. cutting rate, and built-in LED light make it ideal for electrical, plumbing, and mechanical rough-in work. Everything you need to start cutting is in the box.
What is included in the XBP03T kit?
The XBP03T ships with the XBP03Z compact band saw, two BL1850B 5.0Ah batteries, a DC18RC Rapid Optimum Charger, a 20 in. contractor tool bag, a hex wrench, and a 32-7/8 in. 14 TPI blade. It is a complete starter package for electricians, plumbers, and pipefitters.
What is the cutting capacity of the XBP03T?
The XBP03T (like the XBP03Z it contains) cuts round stock up to 2-1/2 in. in diameter and rectangular workpieces up to 2-1/2 x 2-1/2 in. It handles 1-1/2 in. EMT, 1 in. rigid conduit, all-thread rod, and small-diameter copper and plastic pipe.
Is the XBP03T motor brushless?
No. The XBP03Z inside the XBP03T kit uses a brushed motor. For a brushless option, consider the XBP05R1B kit, which uses the sub-compact brushless XBP05ZB saw.
How long does it take to charge the included batteries?
The included DC18RC Rapid Optimum Charger fully charges a BL1850B 5.0Ah battery in approximately 45 minutes. The charger also features an automatic maintenance mode that keeps batteries at full charge without overcharging.
Can the batteries from the XBP03T be used with other tools?
Yes. The BL1850B batteries in the XBP03T are standard Makita 18V LXT slide-style packs compatible with the entire 18V LXT ecosystem of over 300 tools.
What is the no-load speed of the XBP03T?
The XBP03T runs at a fixed 630 ft./min. — faster than the full-size XBP02Z's top speed. There is no variable-speed dial; the single-speed design simplifies operation for straightforward cutting tasks.
