Key Features & Benefits

• Break Stubborn Nuts with Less Effort – Up to 580Nm Nut-Busting Torque
  High reverse torque provides the power needed to loosen heavily tightened or stubborn nuts and bolts, making the DTW300Z particularly useful for vehicle maintenance, workshops and demanding site work.
• Fasten with Serious Power – Up to 330Nm Fastening Torque
  With a maximum fastening torque of 330Nm, this compact wrench can handle a broad range of automotive, mechanical and construction fastening applications without requiring a bulky high-torque tool.
• Match the Power to the Job – Four-Stage Power Selection
  Choose between approximately 100Nm, 160Nm, 210Nm and 330Nm maximum fastening settings, giving you better control when moving between lighter components and larger fasteners.
• Work Faster with Fewer Mistakes – Automatic Stop Modes
  Three selectable reaction-time modes are available in both forward and reverse operation, helping automatically stop or control rotation during specific fastening and loosening situations. This can reduce over-tightening and make repetitive work more efficient.
• Serious Performance in Tight Spaces – Compact 144mm Body
  Measuring just 144mm in body length, the DTW300Z is easier to manoeuvre around wheel assemblies, machinery, engine bays and confined work areas where larger impact wrenches become awkward.
• More Efficient Power Delivery – Brushless Motor
  Makita's brushless motor reduces energy lost through friction and removes traditional carbon brushes, helping improve efficiency while keeping the tool compact.
• Work Quickly with Standard Impact Sockets – 1/2" Square Drive
  The industry-standard 1/2-inch square drive makes the DTW300Z compatible with a broad selection of suitable impact-rated sockets and accessories.
• Tackle Different Fasteners with Confidence – M10 to M20 Capacity
  Designed to tighten standard bolts from M10 to M20 and high-tensile bolts from M10 to M16, giving tradespeople one compact tool for a broad range of fastening requirements.
• Get Through Jobs Faster – Up to 3,200rpm
  Four selectable no-load speed ranges reach up to 3,200rpm, allowing the tool to deliver rapid fastening and removal when maximum speed is required.
• Power Through Tough Fasteners – Up to 4,000 Impacts per Minute
  Impact rates of up to 4,000ipm deliver repeated rotational blows that help loosen stubborn fixings and drive fasteners more efficiently.
• Better Control in Challenging Conditions – XPT Technology
  Makita's eXtreme Protection Technology (XPT) is engineered to improve resistance against dust and water ingress during operation in harsh working environments.
• See the Fastener More Clearly – Integrated LED Work Light
  The built-in LED illuminates the working area, making it easier to see nuts and bolts in garages, under vehicles, inside machinery and other poorly lit spaces.
• More Comfortable During Repeated Use – Slim Ergonomic Handle
  Makita's narrow handle design improves grip and handling, helping make the tool easier to control during repeated fastening and removal jobs.
• Protect Your Battery – Automatic Battery Protection
  The integrated battery protection system automatically shuts down the tool when the compatible battery reaches a low charge level, helping protect the battery from excessive discharge.
• Use Batteries You Already Own – Makita 18V LXT Platform
  If you already use compatible Makita 18V LXT tools, the body-only format allows you to use suitable batteries from your existing LXT collection instead of paying for another battery and charger.
• Pay for the Tool You Need – Body-Only Configuration
  The DTW300Z is supplied without a battery or charger, making it particularly cost-effective for tradespeople and DIY users already invested in Makita's 18V LXT ecosystem.

Why Choose This Product

The Makita DTW300Z offers an excellent balance between serious impact-wrench performance and compact everyday usability.

With 580Nm of nut-busting torque, it has the strength needed for stubborn automotive and mechanical fasteners, yet its compact 144mm body makes it much easier to use in restricted spaces than many larger high-torque impact wrenches.

The four-stage power selection also means you aren't forced to use maximum torque for every task. You can select a lower setting when more control is required and increase the power when dealing with tougher fasteners.

For automotive technicians, mechanics, tradespeople and experienced DIY users already using Makita LXT batteries, the DTW300Z is a particularly practical addition to the toolbox: compact enough for frequent use, powerful enough for demanding jobs and cordless enough to go wherever the work takes you.

Specifications

Makita's official product information confirms the 330Nm maximum fastening torque, 580Nm nut-busting torque, four speed/torque stages, 1/2-inch drive, M10–M20 standard bolt capacity and 18V LXT platform.

Body Only

Battery and charger are not included.

The DTW300Z is intended for customers who already own suitable Makita 18V LXT Li-ion batteries and a compatible LXT charger, or who wish to purchase these separately. It is not supplied as a complete battery starter kit.

Ideal for mechanics, automotive technicians, construction professionals, maintenance engineers, tradespeople and serious DIY users who need substantial fastening power without carrying an oversized impact wrench.

It is especially useful for wheel and tyre work, vehicle maintenance, structural fasteners, machinery, assembly, fabrication and general workshop applications. Existing Makita LXT users benefit most from the body-only configuration because compatible batteries can be shared across their tool collection.
