Makita 18V COMPACT BRUSHLESS 4-Stage Impact Driver - Tool Only

Makita DTD173Z 18V LXT Li-ion Cordless Brushless 4-Speed Impact Driver – Skin Only

Looking for a compact driver that’s built tough and keeps up with you on site? The Makita DTD173Z is made for tradies who don’t muck around. At just 111mm long and 1.04kg, it’s small enough to get into the tightest spots, but still packs a punch with 180Nm of torque and Makita’s proven brushless motor.

This isn’t just another impact driver — the 4-speed control plus 4 Assist modes give you precision when you need it, and power when you want it. The redesigned balance puts the battery weight directly in line with your grip, meaning less strain and more control all day long.

And because you’re on the tools day in, day out, the enhanced bit holder reduces wobble, the quick switch button keeps you moving fast, and the LXT platform means it runs off the same batteries you’re already using.

At Cornwells Mitre 10, we back Makita because they back you — this tool comes with a 3 Year Warranty (with up to 5 years extended if registered). Tough, reliable, no-nonsense gear for serious work.

👉 Cornwells Tip: If you’re running multiple Makita LXT tools already, this is a no-brainer. It’s lighter, faster, and tougher — and it’ll pay for itself the first time you’re working overhead or in a tight space where your old driver just won’t fit.
