Makita XPS Impact Driver Bits homedepot.sjv.io/DxQXG
VCG Construction / @vcgconstruction
Makita ImpactXPS is new innovation in fastening with insert bits and fastening accessories built for the demands of the professional contractor. The ImpactXPS Power Bits are designed exclusively for use with high-torque impact drivers, and are engineered to last up to 90-times longer than standard bits. High-strength steel delivers longer bit life, and the precision-fit tip is engineered to prevent "cam-out" and stripping. The torsion section of the bit flexes under load to take pressure off of the bit tip for increased durability. The high quality steel construction is engineered for increased durability and features a matte nickel surface for best in class corrosion resistance. ImpactXPS Power Bits are ideal for the most demanding jobs including deck building, framing, installing plywood subfloor, and more.
Bits last up to 90X longer than standard impact bits
Bits feature precision machined tips, pulse torsion rings, an optimized torsion zone, and unique steel, combine to deliver improved overall performance and bit life
Precision machined tips provide a superior full contact fit for improved holding power and longer life
Pulse Torsion Rings help to disperse impact energy through the torsion zone and off of the bit tip
Optimized Torsion Zone geometry facilitates an ideal transfer of impact energy for improved bit life
Unique steel composition is masterfully engineered for extended life compared to S2 and S6 alloys
Uniquely calibrated heat treating process for added durability
Matte Nickel surface for best in class corrosion resistance
12 sided bit collar for use with the ImpactXPS Mag Boost sleeve for added holding power
Engineered to withstand the extreme power of high-torque impact drivers and to last longer than standard impact bits

I work every day with impact bits all day long because I repair tools for a living. I use Torx, Allen head and a few flat and Philips as well. The company I work for sells Makita products and we are an authorized service center for Makita as well. Needless to say, I have virtually every brand of bit in my tool chest and I can honestly say that the Makita impact bits are by far the most durable and most have superior functionality. I don’t say this because we sell them, because we also sell and service DeWalt, Milwaukee, and Bosch we service a total of 16 name brands of tools and I have used them all extensively.

Love my Milwaukee Shockwave bits, but I’m seriously considering getting some of the Makita XPS Phillips bits after seeing your video, and VCG’s. I’ve seen Phillips brand do such a demonstration, but it required their new screws AND their bit for it to work. Makita did it with just the bit design.

Tool Review Zone the one where you completely buried the bit was pretty amazing too. I’ve seen overdriven screws before, but I’ve never seen anyone bury a 2” or longer bit. I hope they didn’t make the same mistake as Milwaukee did with the Matrix bits. Hope they learned from Milwaukee’s mistake and aren’t repeating it.

I'd probably keep some worse fitting bits on me. When I'm tearing out old work and there are a lot of screws, I actually like a worse fitting bit so I can just flick my driver to the side and throw the screw on the floor to sweep up later. Makes demo a little faster.

@ccbowers 5 ай бұрын

Shockwave cases are annoying. Especially for narrow bits and twist drills, you might rip your skin off before the bit releases. I like the Milwaukee bits themselves quite a bit and have a couple sets, but I won't buy them again for that reason. I do like the Makita XPS better overall. Fairly similar design to the Milwaukee, but slightly better finish and much less annoying case

Not all Phillips screws are exactly the same. Button head sheet metal screws for instance, wouldn’t hold an impact like that. If you only use deck screws or drywall screws these tips look great, but they may not be the best for every application.

@douglasthompson2740 4 жыл бұрын

I do like my Makita impact driver but their bits have always sucked! So these new ones would have to be a huge improvement to be equal to the DeWalt or Irwin ones. They have always had softer steel which wear out very quickly and aren't that great out of the box while still being one of the more expensive brands. Check out Project Farm he found out pretty much what I have experienced when testing bits. I still wouldn't buy a phillips fastener if given any choice even if the bit could continue as you show. Torks or Robertson are far far superior and hold a driver even when it is a bit worn. I am not even a fan of the 'Japanese phillips' which are very different from the normal ones. They still cam out under load.
