Powered by Makita's advanced LXT lithium-ion technology, this SDS drill combines cordless convenience with the performance needed for heavy-duty work. At the heart of the DHR242 is a brushless motor that delivers efficient, powerful performance whilst extending tool lifespan and reducing maintenance requirements.
