Makita 18V LXT® Sub-Compact 6-1/2" Circular Saw – Cordless Brushless Precision for Stage Builds (XSH04ZB)
📦 Description:
Compact doesn’t mean weak — it means faster cuts, tighter control, and less fatigue in every venue you load into. The Makita XSH04ZB 18V LXT® Sub-Compact Circular Saw delivers 5,000 RPM of cutting power in a lightweight 6.4 lb. body (with battery), ideal for scenic carpentry, riser mods, and quick framing backstage.
Designed to match the handling of a 12V tool with the runtime and torque of an 18V system, this brushless circular saw makes up to 174 crosscuts per charge (in 2x10 SPF with a 5.0Ah battery). It features a 2-1/4" cutting depth at 90°, bevels up to 50°, and uses Makita’s Automatic Speed Change™ tech to adjust torque and RPM in real time under load.
Built-in dual LED lights, an electric brake, dust extraction port, and a tether-ready notch make it crew-friendly and show-ready. The rear dust port and premium carbide blade help keep your cuts clean and fast — even mid-load-in.
If you’re rigging, framing, or flying a set, this saw fits the gig — and your tool bag.
