Makita XSJ01Z Review

This cordless metal shear features a swivel shear head that rotates 360-degree, making it easier to address your cutting needs from any angle. It also has a Makita-built 4-pole motor that delivers 2,800 strokes per minute for fast cutting, which is perfect for those who need to work quickly but efficiently. The XSJ01Z can cut up to 18 gauge mild steel and 20 gauge stainless steel, making it a versatile cutting tool. Its compact and ergonomic design, at only 13-3/4" long and weighing only 5.3 lbs. with battery (sold separately), reduces operator fatigue and provides better control, especially when cutting steel and stainless steel sheet metal. The Makita XSJ01Z is part of Makita's expanding 18V Lithium-Ion series, the world's largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style battery. Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.
