Makita HS013G 40V XGT 415mm Brushless Circular Saw - Body & 2x Efficut 35T Saw Blades

OK…there are everyday circular saws, corded and cordless, brushless and brushed motor, and then there is the Makita HS013G 40V XGT 415mm Brushless Circular Saw .

This high powered saw delivers a performance experience that even exceeds corded machines, and, in a single stroke, will cut up to 1160mm – this is the BIGGEST cutting depth of ANY circular saw at the time of release*.

Powered by Makita’s 40Vmax XGT lithium-ion battery platform, the HS013G delivers performance described by Makita as similar or superior to corded models, while removing the restrictions of a mains power cable.

At the heart of this impressive circular saw is a maintenance-free brushless motor driving a substantial 415mm blade at a no-load speed of 2,100rpm.

This provides an outstanding maximum cutting depth of 160mm at 90°, allowing beams and sleepers up to 160mm thick to be cut in a single stroke. When working at 45°, the saw still provides an impressive 106mm maximum cutting depth, with a right-hand bevel adjustment range from 0° to 45°.

The HS013G is supplied with an EFFICUT saw blade specification and has been engineered to combine high power with enhanced manoeuvrability.

Its soft-start system suppresses start-up reaction, providing greater control and helping improve cutting accuracy from the beginning of each cut. An electric brake supports increased productivity and operator safety, while the anti-restart function helps minimise accidental start-up.

For cleaner working, the saw is compatible with Makita’s Auto-start Wireless System. AWS uses Bluetooth to connect the saw to a compatible vacuum cleaner, allowing compatible dust extraction equipment to operate alongside the tool.

A particularly useful application would be cutting substantial structural timber or railway-style sleepers during landscaping or heavy timber construction. Rather than making multiple cuts from opposing sides, the HS013G's 160mm cutting capacity can cut material up to that thickness in a single stroke.

This can simplify demanding deep-cutting jobs, while the cordless XGT platform allows the saw to be used away from a convenient mains power source.

For professional users looking for an exceptionally deep-cutting cordless circular saw, the Makita HS013G combines a huge 415mm blade, brushless XGT power and practical electronic safety and control features in one purpose-built machine
