Milwaukee Electric has introduced new additions
to its line of M18 cordless band saws. There are three new compact models that
weigh approximately 10 pounds or less. The saws feature a patent-pending
tool-free adjustable material shoe for making flush cuts when working with
installed materials against walls and ceilings. The company claims that the saws
are 45 percent lighter and cut three times faster than previous models. They
also cut common materials including 3-inch copper pipe and 2 ½-inch conduit.
Each of the three new models have an LED work light. The 2629-22 and 2629-20
models use a lithium-ion battery.
