Precision cutting made easy!
The Makita XNJ01Z nibbler is a versatile, high-performance tool designed to deliver clean and efficient cuts in various materials, making it ideal for roofing and metalworking applications. Powered by a Makita-built motor, it achieves up to 1,900 strokes per minute (SPM), providing faster, smoother cutting. This capability makes it particularly effective for cutting roofing sheet metal at thicknesses up to 16 gauge, ensuring precise and reliable performance for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike.
Moreover, the die holder rotates a full 360 degrees, offering unparalleled flexibility to adapt to any cutting direction, making intricate cuts and tight turns effortless. With a cutting radius of 1-3/4" for inner edges and 2" for outer edges, the tool handles challenging curves with ease, delivering accuracy in complex jobs. Additionally, its clever chip disposal system directs waste below the cutting material, protecting the surface from damage and maintaining a cleaner workspace.
For uninterrupted workflow, the tool features a lock-on sliding switch, enabling continuous operation without constant pressure on the trigger. The built-in thickness gauge enhances user convenience by allowing quick checks on material thickness, while the easy punch and die replacement reduces downtime on demanding projects.
Furthermore, safety and longevity are priorities with features like a battery capacity warning system that alerts users with a solid red light and halts motor operation to indicate when a battery replacement is needed. Plus, anti-restart protection ensures the motor doesn’t start if the battery is inserted while the switch is locked on. The ergonomic rubberized soft grip increases operator comfort during extended use, reducing hand fatigue.
The Makita XNJ01Z nibbler is also equipped with Star Protection Computer Controls for enhanced tool and battery safety, protecting against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating. Externally accessible carbon brushes improve serviceability, extending the tool's lifespan.
