Although compact, these Milwaukee M18 Fuel compact band saws are said to offer the fastest cutting speed and largest cut capacity of any bandsaw at 3 1/4”x3 1/4”. Like their other band saws, both compact models feature Jobsite Armor Technology that protects the tool from drops and debris with a proprietary composite material and crush zone barriers for impact absorption. A variable speed trigger, tool-free locking adjustable shoe, and LED work light provide maximum control and increase overall productivity. For ease of use, the tools incorporate a rafter hook for easy storage in-between cuts.

To align with jobsite requirement changes, a dual-trigger option will also be available with the M18 Fuel Compact Dual Trigger Band Saw which requires users to engage the triggers located on the front and back handles simultaneously in order to operate. The M18 Fuel Compact Dual-Trigger Band Saw incorporates the same features, durability, and performance as the M18 Fuel Compact Band Saw with the addition of a dual trigger.

Alongside the new band saws, a pipe reamer attachment and compact band saw blade covers will be available as well. The band saw pipe reamer attachment provides users with the ability to easily cut and ream with one tool, has tool-free installation, and can ream ½”, ¾” and 1” conduit. The blade covers protect the blade track from damage, minimize blade exposure, and have tool-free installation and removal for increased efficiency.

These new Milwaukee M18 Fuel Compact band saws will be available February 2020.
