Metabo 603181840 BS 18 LTX-3 BL I Metal 18V Brushless 3-Speed Lithium-Ion Cordless Drill Driver (Tool Only)

The German-made Metabo BS 18 LTX-3 BL I Metal Bare MB 18V Brushless Cordless 3-Speed Drill Driver excels in all drill-driving applications, but uniquely incorporates an additional 3rd gear specifically for high-speed drilling in metal. This specific model includes the "Best in Class" Rohm Supra SK drill chuck with the highest clamping force on the market. Moreover, operator safety is greatly enhanced by Anti-Kickback functionality that utilizes on-board gyroscopic sensors to cut-out power upon bit lock-up. Greater functionality is achieved with the convenient torque-selection wheel that dials into 12 individual settings for precision operation, including "Impulse" mode to help initially set bits and screws. Performance is further improved with Metabo’s 2nd generation long-life brushless motor mounted in a re-designed tool housing to increase airflow and reduce overheating. Handling and durability have been further optimized with the ergonomic rubberized slimline handle coupled with a more-responsive trigger mechanism. The integrated LED work lights illuminate the work area for ease of operation in dark spaces. The package includes Futuro Top keyless chuck, C-wrench, side handle, belt hook, bit holder and metaBOX 145 L. The Metabo BS 18 LTX-3 BL I Metal Bare MB 18V Brushless Cordless 3-Speed Drill Driver is powered by Metabo Ultra-M Lithium-Ion batteries or industry leading LiHD batteries (batteries sold separately). The revolutionary LiHD batteries deliver more power, runtime per charge, and battery pack lifetime than competitors by utilizing revolutionary Lithium-Ion High Density battery cell technology combined with the highest quality materials and heavy-duty high current components to amplify the power transferred to the motor while providing more runtime. Metabo batteries feature electronic monitoring on each individual cell for increased protection and maximum battery durability, while an LED charge capacity indicator shows the charge at the touch of a button. The Metabo Air-Cooled Charging System (charger sold separately) charges up to 30 percent faster for less down time and protects the battery cells for significantly increased battery life.
