New Makita TD004G delivers high-torque performance for demanding applications

Expanding its range of tools for fixing and fastening, Makita has launched a new impact driver – the most powerful model in its XGT line-up to date.

The TD004G 40VMax XGT Brushless Impact Driver has been designed to deliver superior performance across a wide range of applications, including heavy-duty tasks.

Powered by Makita’s 40VMax XGT Li-ion battery platform, the TD004G offers a maximum fastening torque of 230Nm, a no-load speed of up to 3,900rpm and delivers up to 3,900ipm for exceptional driving efficiency. Despite its impressive power, the tool remains compact and lightweight, making it comfortable and easy to use.

The high torque output of the TD004G provides enhanced speed and efficiency when driving fasteners that are not prone to cam-out, such as hex head and hexalobular (star-shaped) screws. In addition, the TD004G is ideally suited to working with hard materials such as Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL).

The TD004G also offers excellent control. It features a variable speed trigger and four power modes that adjust speed, impacts per minute and torque, allowing users to match performance to the type of fastener and material being used. It also includes a T mode, designed to reduce the risk of screw stripping when driving self-drilling screws (Tek screws) into metal sheets.

The brushless motor in the TD004G reduces wasted energy and improves power delivery compared with conventional brushed motors. This results in longer runtimes on a single charge and fewer interruptions for battery changes and charging.

For added convenience, the TD004G features a one-touch, tool-less bit change system with reduced resistance for easier fitting, as well as twin LED job lights with pre-glow and after-glow functions for improved visibility of the workpiece.

Kevin Brannigan, Marketing Manager at Makita, commented: “This latest addition to our range of 40VMax XGT impact drivers has been designed to help achieve greater speed and efficiency on the most demanding fixing and fastening tasks. Combined with its simple power adjustment based on the job at hand, the TD004G is a valuable addition to many professionals’ tool kits.”
