The Milwaukee 2429-21XC M12™ sub-compact band saw is the most compact and lightest weight cordless band saw on the market. At less than half the weight and size compared to a traditional deep cut band saw, the M12™ band saw provides one-handed power and portability to electricians, maintenance professionals and other users cutting small diameter materials. The M12™ band saw weighs only 6.75 lb and 12 in length, making it ideal for overhead or one-handed cutting applications. This powerful saw can cut through 3/4 in EMT in only 3 secs and will deliver over 150 cuts per charge with the included M12™ REDLITHIUM™ XC high-capacity battery. With a 1-5/8 x 1-5/8 in cut capacity and low vibration, the M12™ band saw performs clean cuts on the most common small diameter metal cutting applications. The M12™ band saw also features a dual-latching lower guard that covers the blade outside the active cutting area, addressing OSHA guarding requirements and making the tool suitable for one-handed use. The tool also includes a variable speed trigger and LED light. Backed by Milwaukee's® 5 years warranty the 2429-21XC comes equipped with one M12™ REDLITHIUM™ XC high-capacity battery, 30 mins charger, one 18 TPI metal cutting blade and a hard carrying case. The M12™ Sub-Compact cordless band saw should be used only with Milwaukee® 48-39-0572 sub-compact portable band saw blades.
