The Metabo BS 18 LTX BL I is an 18 V cordless drill/driver with a brushless motor. It is made for drilling and fastening in wood, metal and general construction work. It delivers up to 1151 in-lbs of hard torque.
A two-speed gearbox gives 0–550 and 0–2000 RPM. Impulse mode helps loosen stubborn screws and start holes on smooth surfaces. The Precision Stop electronic torque control supports accurate fastening. An electronic safety shutdown helps prevent kickback if the bit jams, and overload protection prevents the motor from overheating.
An integrated LED work light has an afterglow function. The drill has a belt hook and comes with a bit case. The 43 mm Euro collar accepts a range of accessories. It works with the CAS 18V battery system.
