Hitachi C18DBALP4 18V 6-1/2” Circular Saw
This 18V cordless, brushless, deep-cut circular saw has a 6-1/2 in. blade diameter and is powerful and highly accurate, combining comfort and convenience. With a maximum of 4,100 RPMs, this 6-1/2” blade has enough power to cut through anything. It has a maximum cutting depth of 2-19/32 in, making it one of the most significant cutting depths compared to leading competitors.
A bevel of -5° to 45° will give you an extensive cutting range. Users will also enjoy how lightweight and compact the body of this Hitachi circular saw is. Weighing in at only 7.1 lbs and measuring 12.2 in. x 7.7 in. x 10.5 in., this circular saw is easy to use and transport.
A unique feature is its “silent mode,” which reduces cutting noise by reducing rotation speeds from 4,100 RPM to 2,500 RPM while increasing workload by up to 30%. To top it all off, a soft grip handle adds a nice finishing touch of comfort for its users.
