Makita DKP181Z LXT 18V Brushless 82mm Planer (Body Only)
The Makita DKP181Z LXT 18V Brushless 82mm Planer (Body Only) is a cordless woodworking planer designed for fast, accurate stock removal and finishing across a wide range of construction and carpentry tasks. Powered by Makitas 18V LXT Li-ion battery platform and a high-performance brushless motor, it delivers up to 3mm planing depth and 82mm planing width, making it ideal for trimming doors, levelling joists and producing clean, straight edges. Automatic Torque Drive Technology optimises cutting speed under load, while soft start and an electric brake improve control and safety on site. Three chamfering grooves, precision-machined aluminium base and left or right chip ejection support neat, repeatable results and effective dust management when connected to extraction. Supplied as a bare unit for maximum flexibility within the Makita LXT system, the planer is compatible with standard 82mm blades and double-edged mini blades, and typically includes guide rule, blade gauge, depth guide and wrench where stated.
