Makita 18V LXT 5/16 in. Cordless Metal Hole Puncher — Bare Tool
The Makita 18V LXT 5/16 in. Cordless Metal Hole Puncher (XPP01ZK) is a professional-grade cordless fabrication tool designed to produce clean, consistent holes in sheet metal and plate without the need for a cord or hydraulic power source. Its compact design, rotating grip, adjustable depth guide, and automatic punch retraction make it practical for fabrication, electrical, HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical work.
As a bare-tool configuration, the XPP01ZK does not include a battery or charger. It is compatible with Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion batteries, allowing users who already own LXT equipment to add the hole puncher to their existing cordless system.

- Punches up to 25/32 in. round holes.
- Produces 9/16 × 53/64 in. oblong holes with compatible accessories.
- Handles metal plate thicknesses up to 5/16 in. in general steel and 15/64 in. in stainless steel.
- Punch-stop mechanism automatically retracts the die after completing a punch.
- Punching cycle can be completed in under 5 seconds for select applications.
- 360° rotating grip handle allows positioning for improved access.
- Adjustable depth guide positions holes up to 1-37/64 in. from the workpiece edge.
- Return lever allows the punch to be retracted during operation.
- Built-in LED light illuminates the work area.
- All-metal gears and gear housing provide durability for demanding jobsites.

Fast Cordless Hole Punching
The XPP01 is designed to make metal-hole punching faster and more convenient than manually drilling individual holes. Makita states that the tool can punch holes in under 5 seconds for applicable applications.
With a compatible 5.0Ah 18V LXT battery, Makita reports the ability to punch up to 180 holes measuring 25/32 in. in 15/64-in.-thick steel under its specified test conditions. Actual performance depends on material, hole size, accessory selection, battery condition, and operating technique.
Metal Punching Capacity
The hole puncher is designed for a variety of fabrication tasks. Its maximum material capacity is:
- General steel: up to 5/16 in.
- Stainless steel: up to 15/64 in.
- Maximum round hole: 25/32 in.
- Maximum oblong hole: 9/16 × 53/64 in.
- Maximum hole depth: 5/16 in.
The appropriate punch and die must be selected for the material thickness and hole size. Using an incorrect die can cause the punch to bind or damage the tool.
Automatic Punch Retraction
A punch-stop mechanism automatically retracts the die once the punching cycle is complete. This allows the operator to move to the next hole more efficiently without manually reversing the tool after every completed punch.
A separate return lever also allows the punch to be retracted during a punching operation when necessary.
360° Rotating Grip
The ergonomic grip handle can rotate 360 degrees, giving users more flexibility when positioning the tool around structural members, brackets, panels, and other metal components.
The rubberized pistol grip provides a more secure and comfortable hold, while the included side handle gives additional control during operation.
Adjustable Depth Guide
The adjustable depth guide allows the punch location to be set up to 1-37/64 in. (40 mm) from the edge of the workpiece.
This feature is useful when creating repeated holes at a consistent distance from an edge, helping improve layout consistency during fabrication work.
Durable Metal Construction
The XPP01 uses all-metal gears and a metal gear housing to withstand demanding jobsite conditions.
An integrated LED light provides additional visibility around the workpiece, while the Star Protection system monitors operating conditions to help protect the tool and compatible battery from excessive load, discharge, and heat.
18V LXT Battery Compatibility
The tool operates on Makita's 18V LXT Lithium-Ion battery platform. The bare-tool version allows users to select the LXT battery capacity that best fits their workload.
Battery and charger are sold separately.
Makita recommends using genuine Makita batteries and chargers with the tool.
