The Makita 8406X is a versatile and robust diamond core and percussion drill designed for trade professionals needing reliable performance across masonry, brick, blockwork, and more. Built with a powerful 850W motor and 2-mode functionality (rotary only / rotary with hammer), it’s ideal for both general drilling tasks and dry diamond core applications up to 152mm in masonry.
This drill features a variable-speed trigger and torque limiter clutch, offering precise control and safety during demanding work. The rotary-only mode is ideal for diamond core drilling, while the hammer-drill mode makes quick work of tougher materials when using standard masonry bits. The 8406X includes a side handle for stability, durable construction, and a carry case—making it site-ready from day one.
Available in both 110V (for site use) and 240V (standard mains), this drill is suited for all professional environments.
