The Makita XLT02Z is an 18V LXT cordless 3/8 in. square-drive angle impact wrench delivering 44 ft.lbs. of max torque and up to 3,000 IPM. The right-angle head design provides access to fasteners in cramped locations where a standard impact wrench cannot fit — HVAC panels, mechanical spaces, and tight under-dash automotive work. Variable speed from 0 to 2,000 RPM provides control when starting fasteners. At 3.3 lbs. with battery, it is a lightweight specialty tool for professional tradespeople. Tool only — battery and charger sold separately.
What is the XLT02Z used for?
The XLT02Z is an angle impact wrench for tightening and loosening bolts in confined spaces where a straight impact wrench cannot fit. Common uses include HVAC unit fasteners, plumbing service panels, automotive under-dash work, and any application where the fastener access is perpendicular to the workspace.
What drive size does the XLT02Z have?
The XLT02Z has a 3/8 in. square drive for standard 3/8 in. drive sockets. For 1/4 in. hex-shank screwdriver bits, look at the XLT01Z angle impact driver instead.
How much torque does the XLT02Z produce?
The XLT02Z delivers 44 ft.lbs. (528 in.lbs.) of max torque. This is sufficient for most light-duty fastening tasks — HVAC screws, conduit fittings, and 3/8 in. bolts — but not for lug nuts or heavy structural fasteners.
How does the XLT02Z compare to the XLT01Z?
The XLT02Z has a 3/8 in. square drive for sockets; the XLT01Z has a 1/4 in. hex chuck for screwdriver bits. Both use the same angle-head design. Choose the XLT02Z for bolt work and the XLT01Z for screw driving.
Is the kit version (XLT02) still available?
The XLT02 kit has been discontinued. The XLT02Z tool-only is the current product. Add any 18V LXT batteries and charger to replicate the original kit configuration.
What batteries are compatible with the XLT02Z?
All Makita 18V LXT slide-style batteries with the Star symbol work with the XLT02Z. Compact 2.0Ah or 3.0Ah packs are popular for this specialty tool to keep overall weight low.
