The Makita DWT310ZK is a cordless shear wrench (also known as a TC shear wrench or tension control bolt wrench).
Its main purpose is to tighten high-strength tension control (TC) bolts — also called torque shear bolts or twist-off bolts.
These special bolts have a splined end (twist-off tip). The shear wrench grips both the nut and the spline at the same time. When the bolt reaches the exact designed tension (clamping force), the spline shears off cleanly. This gives precise, verifiable tension without needing torque calibration or guesswork.
It is commonly used in structural steel construction for:
The tool is ideal for one-sided installation (no need to hold the bolt from the other side) and provides fast, quiet, accurate fastening of M16, M20, M22 bolts (and equivalent imperial sizes).
The Makita DWT310ZK 36V (2 x 18V) Cordless Brushless Shear Wrench provides powerful performance for tightening high strength torque shear bolts. Powered by two 18V Li-ion batteries in series, this bare tool drives a strong 36V DC motor through its brushless design. Operators benefit from consistent high power output, while the electric brake delivers fast stopping for improved productivity and safety. The tool also includes a convenient hook for use with a shoulder belt and a battery capacity warning lamp that clearly indicates remaining power.
