The Makita DWT310ZK 18V X2 (36V) LXT Cordless Brushless Shear Wrench delivers powerful, reliable torque for heavy-duty bolting tasks in structural steel, commercial construction, and industrial manufacturing. Powered by two 18V LXT batteries (sold separately), this cordless shear wrench produces an impressive 593 ft-lbs (804 Nm) of fastening torque—ideal for tightening M16, M20, and M22 tension control bolts in I-beams, steel columns, or fabricated assemblies. Its brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently under load, supporting extended use in repetitive production environments, while Makita’s XPT™ (Extreme Protection Technology) offers superior resistance to dust, debris, and moisture.
The tool’s cast aluminum gear housing withstands the rigors of high-torque operation, and a D-handle with trigger lock-off provides secure, ergonomic handling. Designed for both safety and productivity, it features an LED battery capacity indicator and a handy tip lever that ejects sheared tips for faster workflow. The included plastic carrying case and shoulder strap improve portability for workers moving across job sites or between tasks. Whether you’re working steel erection on high-rise builds or installing structural connections in a shop setting, this tool helps speed up installation while maintaining consistent bolt tension.
