The Makita DA333DZ is a battery-powered angle drill from the 12V CXT range, supplied as a BODY unit without battery or charger. The head height is 84 mm and the distance from the edge to the chuck centre is 23.5 mm, making it a dedicated tool for drilling in spaces where a standard drill cannot reach: behind pipes, inside wall cavities, in service shafts and overhead. The tool weight without battery is 0.99 kg; with a 12V CXT battery fitted, the combined weight is 1.2–1.4 kg depending on battery capacity.

Speed is variable up to 1,100 rpm with a reverse function for backing out fasteners and bits. The electric brake stops the chuck immediately when the trigger is released — a safety feature that reduces the risk of uncontrolled rotation in confined working positions. The battery protection system cuts the power supply automatically at critically low charge levels to protect the cells. The LED work light illuminates the drilling point in low-light conditions.

The DA333DZ is part of Makita's 12V CXT platform and is compatible with all BL10xx batteries in the same voltage range. The delivery includes belt hook 346909-5, keyless chuck 763228-8 and a double PH2 bit 784244-7. Battery and charger are ordered separately and can be selected from the existing 12V CXT range.

What is the Makita DA333DZ and why should you choose it?

The Makita DA333DZ is a 12V CXT angle drill built specifically for work in confined spaces where geometry sets the limit rather than power. A head height of 84 mm and an edge-to-chuck distance of 23.5 mm allow drilling in positions where a standard drill or a larger 18V angle drill does not fit. The combination of electric brake, battery protection system and elastomer grip handle makes the tool controllable and manageable even during extended work in awkward positions. The BODY format suits those already working with 12V CXT batteries who want to extend their platform without purchasing additional charging equipment.

Which environments is the Makita DA333DZ suited for?

The Makita DA333DZ suits electricians, plumbers, carpenters and installation technicians across Europe who regularly drill in service shafts, behind pipe fittings, inside wall and ceiling structures and in other spaces with restricted access depth. Distribution boards, built-in cabinets and horizontal timber noggins in ceilings are typical applications where the DA333DZ performs where a standard tool cannot reach.
