Makita VL001G XGT 40Vmax Cordless Concrete Vibrating Screed – 11,000 min⁻¹

Makita VL001G XGT 40Vmax cordless concrete vibrating screed is a professional tool designed for efficient and consistent concrete compaction and surface finishing without the restrictions of a power cable. Powered by the XGT 40Vmax battery platform, it combines cordless mobility with stable vibration and easy manoeuvrability for professional concrete work.

The Makita VL001G uses a brushless motor with constant speed control to maintain consistent vibration during operation. The vibration rate reaches 11,000 min⁻¹, supporting stable concrete compaction and uniform surface finishing.

Interchangeable blades allow concrete to be processed across widths from 900 to 1800 mm. The blades can be quickly removed using a lever without additional tools, making it easier to adapt the machine to different jobs on site. The aluminium tube and blades reduce overall weight while maintaining a durable construction and improving manoeuvrability.

Rubberised handles help reduce vibration transmitted to the operator's hands, while the spacing between the handles allows the working grip to be adjusted to the task. The trigger and lock button are protected against sticking caused by concrete splashes. XPT – eXtreme Protection Technology is designed to improve resistance to dust and water in demanding working conditions.

The tool has a vibration level of 8.6 m/s² with a K uncertainty of 1.5 m/s². Sound power level is 91 dB(A), sound pressure level is 85 dB(A) and noise uncertainty is 3 dB(A).

Product dimensions are 1562 × 935 / 1435 / 1836 × 258 mm, depending on the blade configuration. Tool weight is 4.6 kg, while weight with battery ranges from 5.0–7.2 kg. The VL001G is also compatible with a portable power pack.

Applications & Usage

The Makita VL001G concrete vibrating screed is intended for professional concrete placement, compaction and surface finishing. Its interchangeable blade system allows the working width to be adapted between 900 and 1800 mm, making the tool suitable for different concrete surface dimensions and jobsite requirements.

The cordless XGT design is particularly practical where freedom of movement is important and working with a mains power cable would be inconvenient. It is suitable for professional concrete construction, floor work, slabs and other applications requiring consistent vibration during concrete finishing.
