Circular Saw – Makita 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless 5-7/8 in

Makita is the leader in brushless motor technology and the 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless 5-7/8 in. Cordless Metal Cutting Saw (model XSC02Z, tool only) delivers faster metal cutting through Unistrut, all thread, channel, corrugated, conduit, pipe, sheet metal, square tubing, steel and more. With a full 2-1/4 in. cutting capacity, it is ideal for electrical contractors since it will cut 2 in. conduit in 1 pass a huge time saver. It is also ideal for HVAC, installation, metal building, metal fabrication, plumbing, metal roofing and for any pro-contractor who requires a best-in-class cordless metal cutting saw. Makita offers 4 optimum 5-7/8 in. blade options for use with the XSC02Z: 32T carbide tipped for metal and general purpose; 52T for thin metal; 52T for aluminum; and 60T for stainless steel (all sold separately). It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18-Volt Lithium-Ion series, the world’s largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18-Volt Lithium-Ion slide-style battery. Makita 18-Volt Lithium-Ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.
