Overview
The WORX WX550L is a cordless 20V multi purpose saw built for jobs where a full-size circular saw will not fit. At 4.6 pounds it swaps between reciprocating and jigsaw style cutting, making it a job site tool for trim work, plumbing access cuts and demolition in tight spots.
WORX pairs this saw with its shared 20V battery platform, so owners already running other WORX tools skip buying a dedicated charger. The 2 inch cut capacity puts it below a circular saw for ripping sheet goods, and the listing does not specify whether a battery ships in the box, so check that before ordering.
- 20V cordless battery power
- 4500 RPM cutting speed
- 4.6 pound compact body
- 2 inch material cut capacity
Who it's for
DIYers and light-duty tradespeople handling pipe, conduit, and awkward-angle cuts are the target market, not framing crews cutting sheet plywood. A corded circular saw still covers more ground per charge on long, straight rips.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Lightweight at 4.6 pounds for one-handed use
- Shares WORX 20V battery platform
- Reaches tight angles a circular saw cannot
- 2 inch cut capacity limits it to thin stock
- Battery and charger inclusion not specified
Performance notes
The 4500 RPM motor and 20V battery drive a stroke action similar to a reciprocating saw, letting the blade start cuts in corners a circular saw cannot reach. Rated 27 watts of motor power keeps the tool light at 4.6 pounds, trading sustained cutting power for maneuverability. The stated 2 inch capacity applies to typical wood and PVC stock, not thick engineered lumber.
