In addition to cutting strength, the DEWALT's 20V MAX XR Circular Saw incorporates a fast-acting electronic brake, stopping the blade in less than one second for increased user control and safety. Its high-strength steel shoe resists wear from metal shavings, while the blade-change wrench included ensures simple maintenance. With a 25/8 in. depth of cut, it handles thick gauge steel materials that most compact saws cant and pairs seamlessly with DEWALTs compatibility across the 20VMAX XR system.
