Answers to your questions about this Makita hammer drill-driver

What is the maximum torque of the Makita DHP458Z hammer drill-driver?

This Makita DHP458Z hammer drill-driver delivers up to 970 in-lb (110 Nm) of maximum torque through its 21 clutch settings. It offers 2 speeds, 0-400 RPM and 0-2,000 RPM, with a hammer mode reaching up to 30,000 blows per minute.

What is the difference between the Makita DHP458Z and the DHP484Z?

The DHP458Z uses a classic brushed motor delivering 970 in-lb of torque, while the newer DHP484Z uses a more compact, lighter brushless motor. According to several users, the brushed motor on the DHP458Z retains slightly higher torque than the DHP484Z.

What does the "Z" mean in Makita DHP458Z?

In Makita's naming system, the "Z" suffix means the tool is sold bare, without battery or charger. That's why the DHP458Z is priced lower than complete kits that include batteries.

Is this drill compatible with my existing Makita 18V batteries?

Yes, this tool works with any battery on the Makita 18V LXT platform, regardless of capacity. If you already own Makita 18V tools, no new charger is required. Check our Makita collection to find compatible batteries.

What is included with this Makita DHP458Z drill?

The tool is sold bare with a side handle, a 1/2 in keyless chuck, two double-ended bits, a bit holder, a depth stop and a belt hook. Battery and charger are sold separately.

What warranty covers this Makita hammer drill-driver?

The tool is covered by a 3-year limited manufacturer warranty against material and workmanship defects. Equipement Industriel Polar adds a 30-day satisfaction guarantee on your purchase.

Does this Makita drill perform well in extreme cold across Canada?

The tool itself isn't affected by moderate cold, but 18V LXT lithium-ion batteries lose performance in extreme temperatures. Avoid leaving batteries in a vehicle or an unheated garage in winter, and store them at room temperature between uses.
