The Makita XGC01Z is an 18V LXT cordless 10 oz. caulk and adhesive gun delivering 1,100 lbs. of dispensing force across five variable speed settings (0–66 IPM). It accepts standard 10 oz. caulk cartridges and eliminates hand fatigue from manual squeezing on long caulking runs. The ergonomic design and 15-7/8 in. overall length make it comfortable to use overhead or in tight spaces. Includes a 10 oz. cartridge holder set. Tool only — battery and charger sold separately.
What cartridge size does the XGC01Z accept?
The XGC01Z is designed for standard 10 oz. caulk cartridges — the most common size found at home centers. It includes a 10 oz. cartridge holder set (196351-8).
How much dispensing force does the XGC01Z have?
The XGC01Z delivers 1,100 lbs. of dispensing force, which is sufficient for most silicone, latex, and polyurethane sealants as well as construction adhesives in standard 10 oz. cartridges.
How does the XGC01Z differ from the XGC01ZB and XGC01ZC?
All three share the same motor and dispensing force. The XGC01Z handles standard 10 oz. cartridges; the XGC01ZB accepts 20 oz. barrel-style sausage packs; and the XGC01ZC handles larger 29 oz. cartridges. Choose based on the caulk format your work requires.
What batteries are compatible with the XGC01Z?
All Makita 18V LXT slide-style batteries with the Star symbol are compatible. The BL1830B (3.0Ah) provides good run time for residential caulking jobs; a BL1850B (5.0Ah) extends run time for large commercial applications.
Does the XGC01Z have variable speed?
Yes. Five speed settings let you dial in the flow rate from 0 to 66 IPM, so you can slow down for precise bead work around windows and door frames or speed up for filling large gaps.
Is there a kit version of the XGC01Z?
The XGC01T1 kit (10 oz. version with two 5.0Ah batteries and charger) has been discontinued. If you need a kit, pair the XGC01Z tool-only with your existing 18V LXT batteries or purchase batteries separately.
