Makita DJV182Z LXT 18V Brushless Jigsaw (Body Only)
The Makita DJV182Z LXT 18V Brushless Jigsaw (Body Only) is a cordless top-handle jigsaw designed for accurate cutting in the Power Tools > Jigsaws category. Powered by Makita's 18V LXT Li-ion platform and a brushless DC motor, it delivers smooth, controlled performance with improved efficiency and reduced maintenance for trade and professional users. A variable speed dial offers 800-3,500 strokes per minute, while the 26 mm stroke length and cutting capacity of up to 135 mm in wood, 10 mm in steel and 20 mm in aluminium make it suitable for a wide range of site and workshop tasks. Three orbital settings plus straight cutting allow you to optimise speed or finish, and the rigid aluminium base with 0-45° bevel left and right supports precise angled cuts. Tool-less blade change, soft start, soft no-load, twin LED job lights and a built-in blower all help to maximise control and visibility during cutting. This Makita DJV182Z is supplied as a body only machine, ready to pair with existing 18V LXT batteries and charger.
