Cut, sand and scrape with precision using Makita multi tools
Chippies working tight corners, tilers removing old adhesive, and plumbers cutting access holes all need tools that handle detail work without the bulk. Makita multi tools deliver that precision with oscillating action that tackles cutting, sanding, scraping and grinding in spaces where bigger tools won't fit.
These oscillating tools work with interchangeable blades and accessories, so you can switch from cutting through nails in timber to sanding down filler or scraping paint — all with the same compact tool. The oscillating motion means less vibration in your hands compared to traditional cutting methods, and you get clean, controlled cuts every time.
The range includes both corded and cordless models across their 18V LXT battery platform. Cordless versions give you the freedom to work anywhere on site without hunting for power points, while corded models deliver consistent power for extended sessions. Both options feature tool-free blade changes and variable speed control to match the material you're working.
From detailed carpentry work to bathroom renovations, these tools handle the jobs where precision matters. We also stock a full range of oscillating tool blades and accessories to keep your multi-tool working across different materials and applications.
