This Strong Arm circular saw delivers corded performance from an 18V cordless 7-1/4 In. saw. The Bosch GKS18V-25GC 18V 7-1/4 In. BITURBO Brushless Circular Saw has a 2-1/2 In. cut capacity, easily cutting through 2X (two by) material across the entire bevel range. This circular saw is part of the PROFACTOR System, which pairs BITURBO Brushless Technology with a CORE18V PROFACTOR battery. BITURBO Brushless Technology is a high-performance motor and drive-train system designed to deliver power comparable to high-demand corded tools. Its ECO mode helps get the job done by extending runtime by up to 30%. One-Touch depth-adjustment allows quick, accurate change with one hand. An onboard user interface provides speed-setting control with six settings and tool feedback. The saw features connectivity (module sold separately), providing a link to a connected device via the Bosch Toolbox App to customize settings and receive detailed feedback. It has a 0-50° bevel range, and the auxiliary handle improves stability and handling. The saw is compatible with Bosch as well as select manufacturers track-guidance systems, enabling users to make straight cuts fast. It has an electronic convenience brake for less downtime between cuts and a 360° pivoting port directing dust away from the body when the saw is held in either hand.
