Makita XMT04ZB 18V LXT Sub-Compact Brushless StarlockMax Multi-Tool (Tool Only)

Cordless versatility for professional remodeling and carpentry

The Makita XMT04ZB 18V LXT Sub-Compact Brushless Multi-Tool offers cord-free speed and precision, designed for remodelers, carpenters, plumbers, and general contractors who value mobility alongside control. With a compact grip and a tool-less StarlockMax system, this tool blends power with portability, making it a reliable companion for working in tight spaces without sacrificing performance.

Equipped with a brushless motor and a wide speed range, you can dial in the exact pace for each task. The 10,000–20,000 OPM range lets you match the tool to delicate detailing or aggressive material removal. An anti-vibration system helps minimize fatigue, while the 3.6-degree oscillation angle drives faster, more aggressive cutting and sanding. The large slide switch with a lock-on button adds convenience for extended use, and the compact barrel grip enhances handling when you’re working overhead or in cramped areas.
