Makita DSC121 18v LXT Cordless Brushless Threaded Rod Cutter
The Makita DSC121 is an 18V LXT cordless brushless threaded rod cutter designed for cutting mild and stainless steel threaded rods quickly and efficiently on site. This professional-grade power tool delivers exceptional battery performance, achieving up to 500 cuts on M12 mild steel threaded rod from a single 18V 6.0Ah battery charge.
Powered by Makita's efficient brushless motor technology, this cordless rod cutter eliminates the need for messy cutting fluids or cumbersome hacksaws. The tool cuts through threaded rods from 8mm to 12mm diameter in approximately 3 seconds, making it ideal for mechanical and electrical contractors working with mounting systems, HVAC installations, and suspended ceiling frameworks.
The DSC121 features an integrated battery fuel gauge for monitoring charge levels at a glance, whilst the reverse switch enables quick release of cut rods. Built-in battery protection circuitry safeguards against over-discharge and overheating, extending battery life. The tool accommodates both metric (M8, M10, M12) and imperial (W5/16, W3/8, W1/2) threaded rod sizes, providing versatility across different fixing specifications.

Battery AH Explained
The best way to describe battery amp hour is that this is effectively the size of your fuel tank, the more amp hours your battery has then the longer the battery will last between charges. More amp hours does not increase the power of a given tool.
Battery Voltage Explained
A tool with a higher voltage than another is a bit like choosing an engine in a car, the higher voltage will generally mean higher power & performance. As with cars though a bigger engine does not always translate to better performance so it is important to compare the specifications of tools at different voltages between different manufacturers.
