Makita SK105DNAX 12V max CXT Cordless Self-Leveling Cross-Line Red Laser Kit
The Makita SK105DNAX is a 12V max CXT cordless cross-line red beam laser providing +/-1/8-inch accuracy at 33 feet for high-precision leveling, vertical alignment, and layout applications. Powered by a 635 nm Class II laser diode, this self-leveling instrument projects 180-degree horizontal and 160-degree vertical reference lines with an 82-foot visual range, expandable to 262 feet using a laser detector. Featuring an IP54 dust and water resistance rating, rapid 3-second pendulum stabilization, self-leveling correction up to 4 degrees, and a manual pendulum lock for sloped incline layouts, it delivers up to 20 hours of continuous runtime on a single 2.0Ah battery charge for commercial framing, tile installation, and drop ceiling alignment.
Best Used For:
- Commercial Wall Framing & Track Layout: Projecting crisp plumb lines across studs and floor channels to verify vertical track squareness and wall positioning.
- Acoustical Drop Ceiling & Cabinet Installation: Establishing continuous 180-degree horizontal datum lines for mounting ceiling grids, upper cabinetry, and electrical conduit.
- Stairway & Sloped Surface Alignment: Locking the internal pendulum mechanism to project steady angled reference lines for handrail installations and custom tile risers.
Key Performance & Safety Features
- 635 nm Class II High-Visibility Diode: Emits crisp red cross-lines visible up to 82 feet indoors and detectable up to 262 feet using an optional laser receiver.
- Rapid 3-Second Self-Leveling Mechanism: Internal gimbal system settles reference lines within 3 seconds, compensating automatically for up to 4 degrees of slope.
- Integrated Transport Pendulum Lock: Secures delicate laser diodes during transport and enables manual locking for slope and angle projection.
- IP54 Dust & Water Splash Protection: Sealed rubberized housing overmolding and recessed glass windows guard internal optics against harsh jobsite conditions.
- Dual-Thread Multi-Purpose Magnetic Bracket: Heavy-duty magnetic mount attaches to steel studs or wooden headers with integrated 1/4-inch and 5/8-inch tripod sockets.
- Flexible Dual Power Options: Runs on 12V max CXT batteries or accepts 18V LXT batteries using an optional power source adapter and cord.
