At just 6.5 inches long and 3.1 lbs, it excels in tight spaces while delivering up to 1,700 RPM and 7,500 BPM for versatile drilling and fastening. Engineered with a metal jampot for durability and compatible with Makita’s advanced Star Protection battery system, this tool offers smart performance and long-lasting reliability on every job. ## Description The 18V LXT® Sub-Compact Brushless Hammer Driver-Drill Kit (XPH15ZB) is an ultra-compact drilling and driving solution with significantly less weight. The 18V Sub-Compact Hammer Driver-Drill offers the size and weight of lower voltage tools, but with the performance, power, and compatibility of 18-Volt. For drilling holes in concrete or masonry, set the tool to hammer mode which applies a percussive motion during drilling (for use with a masonry bit, sold separately). The XPH15ZB has an efficient brushless motor with two speed settings and dual L.E.D. lights to illuminate the work area. At only 6-1/2 in. long, it is an ultra-compact drilling and driving solution with superior comfort and handling. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V LXT System, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita® 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls™. Star Protection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside. Review: 普通に使える。 - 画像にあるキャリーフックは付いて無かった。 USからのクッション付簡易包装なため、配送運が悪いと、チャック等をぶつけて、軸がぶれそうな危うさがある。あたりまえだが、取扱説明書は、ぼろぼろで、日本語表記無し。色に、こだわりが無ければ、国内販売の方が安くて無難。マキタ互換の18V汎用バッテリーで普通に使える。 Review: Freaking awesome drill! - Bought this for my son who is an apprentice electrician. He decided to invest in the Makita brand for all of his power tools. I admittedly questioned why until doing a little research. Found out that Makita is one of only two brands that makes their own power tools and they only make power tools. All of the other big brand names have been bought out, consolidated etc. (looking at you DeWalt!) ha. He really likes the ergonomics on the tool and he went head-to-head with a co-worker who has a Milwaukee and was able to drill a hole in concrete almost 2 seconds faster. Impressive! Honestly kind of wish I didn't invest so heavily in Ryobi because I would switch to Makita in a heartbeat. If you're just getting started or looking to switch brands definitely go for Makita! Ps- The belt hook is a nice touch too. ## Features - Compact and ergonomic design at only 6-1/2" long - Weighs only 3.1 lbs. with battery for reduced operator fatigue (battery not included) - Ideal for working in tight spaces - Mechanical variable 2-speed transmission (0-500 & 0-1,700 RPM) (0-7,500 & 0-25,500 BPM) for a wide range of drilling, fastening and hammer drilling applications - Engineered with a metal jampot design for increased durability ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09BXWXQ9K | | Amperage | 18 Amps | | Battery Type | Lithium-Ion | | Best Sellers Rank | 466,015 in DIY & Tools ( See Top 100 in DIY & Tools ) 884 in Drill Drivers | | Brand | Makita | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | Compatible 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries and Makita Chargers | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 152 Reviews | | Drill Type | Hammer Drill | | Drilling Capacity Metal | 0.5 Inches | | Drilling Capacity Wood | 0.5 Inches | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00088381733083 | | Included Components | Tool Only (battery and charger not included) | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 22.3L x 9.6W x 18.7H centimetres | | Item Type Name | Makita XPH15ZB 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Sub-Compact Brushless Cordless 1/2" Hammer Driver-Drill, Tool Only | | Manufacturer | Makita | | Material | Metal | | Maximum Chuck Size | 0.5 Inches | | Maximum Power | 350 Watts | | Maximum Rotational Speed | 1700 RPM | | Maximum Torque | 350 Inch Pounds | | Maximum chuck size | 0.5 Inches | | Maximum rotational speed | 1700 RPM | | Model Number | XPH15ZB | | Number of Speeds | 2 | | Part Number | XPH15ZB | | Power source | Battery Powered | | Special Features | Variable 2-speed | | Speed | 1500 RPM | | Torque | 10 Newton Meters | | UPC | 088381733083 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Voltage | 18 Volts | ## Product Details - **Amperage:** 2 Amps - **Brand:** Makita - **Maximum rotational speed:** 1700 RPM - **Power source:** Battery Powered - **Voltage:** 18 Volts ## Images ![Makita XPH15ZB 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Sub-Compact Brushless Cordless 1/2" Hammer Driver-Drill, Tool Only, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51FhTz4vtRL.jpg) ![Makita XPH15ZB 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Sub-Compact Brushless Cordless 1/2" Hammer Driver-Drill, Tool Only, Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51awjoyloJL.jpg) ![Makita XPH15ZB 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Sub-Compact Brushless Cordless 1/2" Hammer Driver-Drill, Tool Only, Black - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61XbSocU-iL.jpg) ![Makita XPH15ZB 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Sub-Compact Brushless Cordless 1/2" Hammer Driver-Drill, Tool Only, Black - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61URneG-stL.jpg) ![Makita XPH15ZB 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Sub-Compact Brushless Cordless 1/2" Hammer Driver-Drill, Tool Only, Black - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61I0nVK+44L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does this drill have an anti-kickback feature** A: No **Q: What is the charging voltage?

Smooth trigger control & you can easily control a slow rotation. The additional hammer feature is well worth the upgrade over the version without it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/516860239-makita-xph15zb-18v-lxt-lithium-ion-sub-compact-brushless-cordless](https://www.desertcart.us/products/516860239-makita-xph15zb-18v-lxt-lithium-ion-sub-compact-brushless-cordless) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-05*
