Speed, Safety and Precision with Makita’s New Steel Rebar Cutter

Makita’s new SC001GZK Steel Rebar Cutter 40VMax XGTÒ allows trade professionals to cut rebar quickly, easily and without the constraints of a cord. An impressive piece of kit – it can cut 16mm of rebar in just 1.7 seconds, which is a staggering 65% faster than the previous 18V model. Notably, the spark-free cutting process, that creates minimal debris, also ensures a safer working environment.

Weighing in at just 6kg when fitted with the BL4025 battery, this cordless machine allows for complete freedom of movement. This is ideal for access to hard-to-reach areas on site and eliminating potential trip hazards. A brushless motor delivers efficient and low-maintenance operation, despite the hydraulic unit and motor together measuring just 321mm in length.

In what is a considerably compact design, through engineering excellence, the Steel Rebar Cutter achieves a performance to meet the exacting standards of professional users. An excellent cutting speed, a practical 360° rotating head and an adjustable stopper to hold the rebar at a perfect 90° angle, combine to achieve excellent control as well as clean and precise cuts.

A reliable solution for high volume tasks, the Steel Rebar Cutter delivers 250 cuts per charge on a powerful 2.5Ah, general-use BL4025 Li-ion battery, which can be used across Makita’s complete range of 40VMax XGT® tools.

“The new 40VMax Steel Rebar Cutter represents everything that our XGT® range stands for: it makes light work of the toughest tasks with a powerful, cordless, battery,” said Kevin Brannigan, Marketing Manager at Makita UK. “It offers a precise and powerful performance that professionals can trust in, along with the benefits of enhanced safety, efficiency and mobility on site.”
