Is the 21ga wire thick enough for rebar cages that will be lifted off the ground?

Its not a single wrap of wire, I think it hits it 3 times around. Have to play with the settings to make sure it is tight enough and not too loose

Do I need to buy Makita wire spools for this tool

Not sure but I did. 50 spools for around 250 dollars.

What is the difference between this model makita xrt01zk 18v lxt brushless rebar tying tool?

If I’m not mistaken, the “TK” is the entire kit with batteries, charger, case, etc

Where i can fix this tool ?

I don't know where you are, but I would Google "makita repair center" to find the closest. Mike
