Overview
A remodeler tearing out framing or cutting pipe in a basement gets a cordless reciprocating saw with a brushless motor. The blade is eight inches long in high speed steel with twenty four teeth.
Brushless drive and a high power rating suit demolition without a cord. The listing recommends wood as the surface and names only the saw among its components. A single lithium ion battery is described as required, so one is needed.
Who it's for
Demolition crews and renovators who cut framing, pipe and old fixtures without a nearby outlet will value the power. Those starting from nothing need to buy a battery separately.
Pros and cons
- Brushless motor listed
- High power rating
- Cordless for outlet-free jobs
- High speed steel blade material
- Battery and charger not included
- Heavy for overhead work
- Stroke length not listed
- Plastic handle material
Performance notes
A brushless motor wastes less energy as heat, so a given battery lasts longer under load. Cut speed depends on the battery capacity and the blade fitted. Reciprocating action transmits vibration to the handle during demolition.
