DPB183 Cordless Portable Band Saw

18V LXT BL Cordless Portable Band Saw

• BL motor delivers 3.2 m/s (630 ft./min.) blade speed for faster cutting
• BL motor eliminates carbon brushes, enabling the BL motor to run cooler and more efficiently for longer life
• BL motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for longer run time per charge
• BL motor efficiently uses energy to match torque and RPM to the changing demands of the application
• Stable cutting with highly rigid aluminum structure; Rigid aluminum die-cast frame and gear housing prevents the blade from sliding off the wheel; The rigidity also allows for increasing the tension on the blade to prevent the blade from slipping on the wheel
• 66 mm cutting capacity; Large cutting capacity allows for single-pass cutting of 65 mm x 45 mm light gauge steel stud
• Constant speed control minimizes the reduction in blade speed to provide stable cutting
• Variable speed control by dial; An optimum cutting speed can be selected to suit application
• Catch bracket protects the tool body from damage by hitting against workpiece
• Electric brake for maximum productivity and increased operator safety
• Aluminum diecast frame and gear housing for increased durability
• Drastically reduced size has been achieved by relocating the handle for easier operation even in tight spaces
• Easy blade track adjustment simply by turning the screw
• Redesigned structure of wheel cover and frame (lowered aluminum portion than wheel) for easy installation/removal of blade when the wheel cover is open
• Twin LED job light with pre-glow and afterglow functions illuminates the work area
• Adjustable stopper plate convenient to cut pipes near walls, floors and ceilings
• Tool hook secures the tool when not in use
• Easy-to-grip handle with elastomer surface for anti-slip
• Wheel cover encloses the blade outside the cutting area making the saw suitable for one-handed operation. Lock-off button prevents accidental startup. On-tool storage for hex wrench. Battery protection circuit protects against overloading, over-discharging and over-heating.
