Metabo Circular Saws

Circular saws are versatile power tools used for cutting wood, metal, plastic, and masonry. They are ideal for straight cuts and can handle various materials with the appropriate blade. When choosing a circular saw, consider the material you will cut most often to select the correct blade type.

Choosing the right circular saw involves considering power, blade size, and features. Circular saws come in corded or cordless options. Corded models offer consistent power, while cordless ones provide mobility. Blade size affects depth of cut; common sizes are 165 mm to 185 mm. Look for safety features like blade guards and electric brakes.

Cordless circular saws have improved significantly in power due to advancements in battery technology. While traditionally less powerful than corded models, modern cordless versions offer comparable performance for most DIY tasks. Evaluate battery life and charging time when selecting a cordless model.

Circular saws can make angled cuts using their adjustable base plate or bevel feature. Most models allow bevel adjustments up to 45 degrees, enabling you to make precise angled cuts on various materials. Ensure your model has clear angle markings for accuracy.
