Milwaukee Unveils A Rear Handle Circ Saw – Faster Than Corded, More Run-Time Than Other Cordless Options

MILWAUKEE, WI- Unwavering in their dedication to delivering productivity-enhancing solutions

that provide the right blend of power, speed, and run-time, Milwaukee Tool is proud to announce

the M18 FUEL™ 7-1/4” Rear Handle Circular Saw. The new saw not only generates the power

of a 15amp corded saw but it also cuts faster than the leading corded units available in the

industry. It also features the most run-time of any cordless rear handle circular saw, capable of

making up 570 cuts in 2x4 per charge.

True to all M18 FUEL™ solutions, the new M18 FUEL™ 7-1/4” Rear Handle Circular

Saw combines three exclusive innovations – the POWERSTATE™ brushless motor,

REDLITHIUM™ battery pack, and REDLINK PLUS™ intelligence. However, to deliver the first

18V rear handle circular saw that generates the power of 15amp corded, Milwaukee®

reengineered these critical cordless components to deliver the very best performance catered to

this tool and its applications.

The brand-new POWERSTATE™ Brushless Motor delivers 5,800 RPM to rip through

tough applications without bogging down. A redesigned REDLINK PLUS™ Intelligence package

ensures maximum performance of the saw under load and prevents against overload and

overheat.

When equipped with Milwaukee’s new M18™ REDLITHIUM™ HIGH OUTPUT™

HD12.0 Battery, the saw can power through up to 570 cuts on just one charge, eliminating the

hassle of cords or constant switching-out of multiple battery packs, while exceeding the

performance of higher voltage solutions in the industry. The new HIGH OUTPUT™ HD12.0

Battery provides 50% more power, runs 50% cooler, and delivers 33% more run-time than the

M18™ REDLITHIUM™ HD9.0 Battery. In conjunction with REDLINK PLUS™ Intelligence and

the POWERSTATE™ Brushless Motor, the HIGH OUTPUT™ Battery allows users to push the

saw hard and work all day – delivering more work-per-charge than any other professional power

tool system.

The M18 FUEL™ 7-1/4” Rear Handle Circular Saw features a cast magnesium

construction to reduce the weight of the tool without sacrificing the legendary durability

Milwaukee has long been known for. In addition, it boasts numerous advantages over corded

saws in its class including an electric brake to quickly stop the blade after a cut, as well as gears

that don’t require oiling.

For added utility, the saw also features an LED work light to help make more accurate

cuts and a multi-sized rafter hook for easy storage.

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

new M18 FUEL™ 7-1/4” Rear Handle Circular Saw is fully compatible with the entire M18™

line, now offering more than 175 power tool products, and is a true testament to Milwaukee’s

focus on investing in game-changing technology that truly delivers breakthrough solutions for

users.
