Overview

A 14 inch capacity and high speed steel blade point the Makita 2414NB toward cutting metal stock such as pipe or rebar, not wood. It runs corded at 115 volts and 3,800 RPM, weighing about 1.63 kilograms.

The 14 inch capacity and high speed steel blade point toward cutting metal such as pipe, rebar or angle stock rather than wood framing, even though it is simply labeled a saw in the category listing. 3,800 RPM is typical for cut-off saws designed to shear through metal cleanly. Being corded, it needs an outlet nearby but avoids battery runtime limits on longer cutting sessions.

  • 3,800 RPM blade speed
  • 115 volt corded electric power
  • High speed steel blade material

Who it's for

Suits metalworkers, fabricators or contractors who need a dedicated cut-off saw for pipe, conduit or steel stock. Not built for ripping lumber or general woodworking, where a circular saw with a wood blade is the right tool.

Strengths and trade-offs

Drawn from this product's published specifications.

What stands out
  • 14 inch capacity handles larger stock
  • Corded power avoids battery runtime limits
What to check first
  • Not suited to wood cutting
  • Requires a nearby power outlet

Performance notes

The 3,800 RPM speed paired with a 14 inch high speed steel blade is calibrated for cutting through metal rather than wood, where slower, more aggressive blades are typical. Running on 115 volt corded power means consistent speed under load without waiting on battery charge. At 1.63 kilograms it is manageable for a saw of this cutting capacity, though corded saws in this class still need two handed control.
