12 Inch Brushless Cordless Electric Saw for Makita 18V

12 Inch Brushless Cordless Electric Saw for Wood & Garden

Tackle pruning, log cutting, and general woodworking jobs with a 12-inch cordless electric saw engineered for consistent performance and mobility. Designed to work with Makita 18V lithium-ion batteries, this tool delivers high chain speed, stable cutting, and convenient handling for garden, yard, and workshop tasks.

The brushless motor drives the chain at up to 18,000 RPM (motor speed) with a chain speed of 12 m/s, supporting fast, controlled cuts through branches, firewood, and construction timber. The 12-inch guide plate provides a practical cutting length for trimming trees, processing lumber, and handling common DIY projects. An automatic oiling system continuously lubricates the chain during operation, helping reduce friction and wear while maintaining smooth cutting. The saw body is built from a combination of ABS and metal for a balance of durability and manageable weight.

The soft rubber handle offers a secure, anti-slip grip for better control, even during extended use. A widened front baffle helps deflect wood chips away from the user, while integrated ventilation and heat dissipation openings assist in keeping the motor and internal components at a stable operating temperature. The quick-adjust chain design allows for straightforward chain tensioning with minimal downtime. This saw is compatible with Makita 18V Li-ion batteries (battery and charger available as optional extras), making it a practical addition for users who already own Makita 18V tools.

The included plastic storage box keeps the saw and accessories organized between jobs or during transport. Depending on the selected option, the package may include one high-capacity lithium battery and a charger, giving you a ready-to-use cutting solution right out of the box. The tool is suitable for forestry work, firewood preparation, garden pruning, and general carpentry tasks where a compact, cordless chainsaw is preferred over larger, corded equipment.

• Brushless motor and 12 m/s chain speed support fast, efficient cutting in wood and branches.
• Cordless design with Makita 18V battery compatibility offers flexibility across garden and workshop locations.
