Description

This cordless Profactor Strong Arm circular saw delivers corded-like performance from an 18 V cordless 7 1/4 in saw. This Biturbo brushless circular saw has a 2 1/2 in cut capacity, easily cutting through deep material across the entire bevel range. Part of the Profactor system, which pairs Biturbo brushless technology with a Core18 V Profactor battery, this tool has a high-performance motor and drive-train system designed to deliver power comparable to high-demand corded tools. It features connectivity capabilities (module sold separately) to link to a connected device via the Bosch Toolbox App to receive detailed feedback. It has a 0-50° bevel range and an auxiliary handle that improves stability and handling. It also has an electronic convenience brake for less downtime between cuts and a 360° pivoting port directing dust away from the user when the saw is held in either hand. It comes with a 7 1/4 in 24-tooth carbide circular saw blade and a hex wrench. This product is covered by a limited 1-year warranty.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Charles from Great saw overall I have many Bosch 18v and corded tools, I think they are one of the few companies that don’t try to cheap out on the quality of their product. I waited a long time for a full size 7-1/4 18v circular saw and although it is a very good saw I think they missed a few things. First the good, it has a ton of power especially for an 18v, you can rip 2x material with very little if any lag, it has an electronic brake which is a good safety feature, it has metric and standard measurements on the depth gauge, all the gauges are easy to see, it also has a nice ergonomic feel. A few of things I’m not as thrilled with are the tracking, maybe I’ll get used to this but I feel like it could be more accurate. The gauges are printed stickers which is great for visibility but I’m not sure how well they will hold up over time, there’s also no led light for visibility which seems like a fairly common thing to integrate into cordless tools. Lowe’s had a deal where you get a free turbo charger and 8 amp hour battery when you bought the saw so it was hard to pass up. It doesn’t come with a bag but that’s not really a big deal. Overall I’m happy with the saw and I think it’s worth the money especially if you can get a battery with it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Taylor from Great saw. Saw is quiet and clean. I have a full layout of bosch tools so I personally have alot of batteries. As with most cordless saws it drains batteries fast so keep that in mind.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Yeti from Bosch does it again. This is my first battery operated circular saw. My yellow and black one broke. Bosch has my attention. This saw is light in weight but that in NO MEANS translates in less power. It's like having a cord but it's not in my way using this one! It feels good in hand and love having the brake too. After I checked square, which was good, I ran it through 1/2 and 3/4 plywood. I recommend this tool.
