Adding to its circular saw lineup, Milwaukee Tool announced the new M18 FUEL 6.5-inch Circular Saw, offering class-leading performance and delivering up to 20 percent more power and up to 40 percent faster cut speed.

As the fastest-cutting circular saw in its class, Milwaukee’s new solution features an advanced POWERSTATE Brushless Moter that spins the blade at 6,000 revolutions per minute while maintaining high speeds underload, even in demanding applications. The circular saw also features REDLINK PLUS Electronics, ensuring maximum tool performance and protection from overload, overheating or over-discharge. When paired with Milwaukee’s M18 REDLITHHIUM HIGH OUTPUT XC6.0 Battery, the saw delivers up to 300 cuts per charge.

The M18 FUEL 6.5-inch Circular Saw was designed for the professional carpenter, remodeler and general contractor to provide a broad application range for increased productivity. For versatility in application, the saw allows users to cut through dimensional lumber, sheet goods and engineered wood and deliver rip, cross, miter and bevel cuts. For enhanced productivity, the M18 FUEL 6.5-inch Circular Saw has positive bevel detents and a new-to-world depth detent.

Designed for improved mobility on the job site, the M18 FUEL 6.5-inch Circular Saw supplies improved ergonomics and touch points for ease of use to the user. Weighing in at 6.1 pounds (the bare tool), the circular saw provides the best power-to-weight ratio in its class and superior balance with enhanced handle geometry, delivering increased user experience with upgraded touch points, such as an arbor lock that allows easy blade changes and depth and bevel adjustment levers for the most accurate cuts. Additional features include an electric blade brake, LED work light, hang hook and all-magnesium guards and shoes.

Milwaukee is committed to improving productivity by providing performance-driven and trade-focused solutions so users can perform an entire day’s work on one battery system. The M18 FUEL 6.5-inch Circular Saw is fully compatible with the entire M18 line, which is now offering more than 250 solutions.
