Makita is the leader in brushless motor technology, and the Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 5-7/8 in. Metal Cutting Saw delivers faster metal cutting through Unistrut, all thread, channel, corrugated, conduit, pipe, sheet metal, square tubing, steel and more. With a full 2-1/4 in. cutting capacity, the metal cutting saw is ideal for electrical contractors since it will cut 2 in. conduit in one pass, making this a huge time saver. This cutting saw is also ideal for HVAC, installation, metal building, metal fabrication, plumbing, metal roofing, and for any pro-contractor who requires a best-in-class cordless metal cutting saw.
