Makita 18V LXT Brushless 7/16 in. Hex Right Angle Drill Kit
The Makita 18V LXT Brushless 7/16 in. Hex Right Angle Drill Kit is a cordless drilling solution designed for professionals working in construction, electrical, plumbing, utility, and other trades where access can be limited. Its right-angle configuration and 7/16-inch hex drive make it easier to drill in tight spaces while allowing quick bit changes without a conventional chuck.
The kit is built around Makita's 18V LXT Lithium-Ion platform and features a brushless motor, two-speed transmission, variable-speed control, metal gear housing, and electronic protection technology. Makita's XAD06T kit configuration includes an 18V LXT 5.0Ah battery, rapid charger, side handle, and tool bag.
Key Features
- 18V LXT cordless operation provides mobility without a power cord.
- BL™ Brushless Motor delivers efficient power and extended motor life.
- 7/16 in. hex shank allows quick installation and removal of compatible hex-shank bits.
- Two-speed transmission provides 0–450 RPM and 0–1,400 RPM no-load speeds.
- Right-angle design improves access in confined spaces.
- Metal gear housing enhances durability for demanding jobsite use.
- Electric brake helps stop the bit quickly after the trigger is released.
- Soft-start function provides smoother startup.
- Dual LED lights illuminate the drilling area.
- Retractable tool hook provides convenient tool storage and can accommodate a tether.
- Star Protection Computer Controls™ help protect against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating.
- Side handle can be positioned on either side for improved control.
Compact Right-Angle Design
The right-angle configuration is particularly useful when a conventional drill cannot be positioned properly. It allows users to work between studs, joists, pipes, cabinets, and other confined areas while maintaining control of the tool.
With an overall length of approximately 17-1/8 inches, the XAD06 design provides a relatively compact profile for a high-capacity drilling tool.
7/16-Inch Hex Drive
Instead of using a conventional drill chuck, the tool features a 7/16-inch hex sleeve. This accepts compatible 7/16-inch hex-shank drilling accessories and allows quick bit installation and removal.
The tool-less hex sleeve is especially convenient when drilling applications require frequent bit changes.
Brushless Motor Performance
The Makita-built BL™ Brushless Motor is electronically controlled to optimize power consumption according to the workload. The brushless design eliminates carbon brushes, reducing components subject to normal wear.
The two-speed transmission provides:
- Low speed: 0–450 RPM
- High speed: 0–1,400 RPM
This range gives users greater control for different drilling materials and bit sizes.
Drilling Capacity
The XAD06 is designed for demanding wood-drilling applications. Makita rates it for holes up to 5 inches with a hole saw and up to 2-9/16 inches with a self-feed bit. It can also drill holes up to 1-1/2 inches using a ship auger bit.
Makita reports that the tool can drill up to 200 7/8-inch holes in 2x SPF lumber using a 5.0Ah LXT battery and appropriate self-feed bit. Actual performance varies with material, bit condition, battery, and operating technique.
Improved Control and Comfort
A rubberized soft-grip handle and side handle help provide a secure grip when drilling larger holes or working against higher loads. The side handle can be mounted on either side of the tool, allowing users to configure it according to their working position.
The tool weighs approximately 7.3 lbs. with battery, helping maintain a balance between drilling capability and portability.
LED Work Lights
Two integrated LED lights illuminate the drilling area, helping improve visibility when working inside cabinets, between framing members, or in other areas with limited ambient light.
The LEDs include pre-glow and afterglow functionality to improve visibility before and after drilling.
Protection and Durability
The drill incorporates Star Protection Computer Controls™, allowing the tool and compatible battery to exchange information and monitor operating conditions.
The system is designed to help protect against:
- Overloading
- Over-discharging
- Overheating
The tool also incorporates a metal gear housing for added durability in demanding applications.
