Recip Saw: Vibration Reduction for Longer Use

The SKILSAW 13-Amp Reciprocating Saw has a 11⁄8-in. stroke length and a variable speed trigger, allowing it to deliver up to 2,800 strokes per minute. The recip saw features SKILSAW’s Buzzkill technology, which significantly reduces vibration through the use of a counterbalanced frame. A single-wobble drive train reduces heat buildup and increases the life span of the tool. The corded tool is powerful enough to cut through a wide variety of construction materials. A heavy-duty, 15-amp version of the recip saw will be released later in 2017. SKILSAW; www.skilsaw.com
