Milwaukee 2729-20 M18 FUEL™ Deep Cut Band Saw – Cordless Cutting for Demanding Applications

The Milwaukee 2729-20 M18 FUEL™ Deep Cut Band Saw is designed for precision and durability in professional metal-cutting operations. This cordless band saw delivers performance equivalent to corded units, with the added benefit of mobility and reduced setup time on job sites. Engineered for electricians, mechanical contractors, and industrial maintenance professionals, the tool cuts through a range of materials with a 5" x 5" rectangular capacity.

It incorporates a POWERSTATE™ brushless motor for extended service life and faster cutting speed, combined with REDLINK PLUS™ electronic intelligence to maintain consistent power under load and protect against overload. The saw’s all-metal direct drive and Jobsite Armor Technology™ housing provide durability under heavy use and job site impact.
