Makita XBP05ZB 18V LXT Li-Ion Compact Brushless Cordless Band Saw – Bare Tool

Makita 18V LXT Sub-Compact Li-Ion Cordless Bandsaw Brushless (Bare Tool)

The Makita 18V LXT® Sub-Compact Cordless Band Saw is designed for one-handed operation in confined spaces and overhead applications. The band saw is powered by a brushless motor that delivers 160 cuts of 3/4″ EMT in one full charge. It comes with a LED light that illuminates your work area in low light conditions. Overload protection safeguards the motor from burnout in any high torque situations. Die-cast aluminum gear and blade housing ensures durability and high cutting stability. The cordless saw has 2 x 2″ cutting capacity and is ideal for cutting multiple materials. Constant speed control automatically applies extra power to the motor to maintain speed under load during challenging jobs. The blade tracking dial allows to adjust for enhanced cutting performance quickly. Protect from overloading, over-discharging and over-heating with Star Protection Computer Controls™. A tool-less blade change lever ensures easy installation and minimal downtime. Additionally, the catch bar helps overcomes accidental follow through during repetitive cutting.
