Top Features
  • User Vibration Protection (UVP) technology incorporates a counterweight mechanism that reduces full-load tri-axial vibration by over 65% significantly reducing vibration transfer to the user
  • Variable speed dial and trigger allow the user to adjust the cutting speed optimally for the application for less waste and more control
  • 2 mode cutting mechanism- straight mode and “swing” mode that produce significantly less rebound effect as compared to traditional orbital action for a more efficient cut in wood materials
  • Constructed with a triple seal design to protect from dust and debris generated during use- also protects from water waste when cutting into pipes
  • Ergonomic shape and slip/heat resistant grip are easier to handle and make it easy to use all day
  • Cuts a variety of materials including copper and conduit
  • Over-load and over current with high/low temperature protection, under voltage protection
  • Significantly faster than a hand saw with a variable speed trigger
