Achieve Higher Sustained Power & Precision with Milwaukee®’s new M18 FUEL™ Jigsaw

Milwaukee Tool is proud to introduce a new 18V top handle jigsaw that harnesses M18 FUEL™ technology* for a best-in-class combination of power, blade speed, precision and run-time.

The M18 FUEL TOP Handle JigSaw’s POWERSTATE Brushless Motor and REDLINK PLUS Intelligence combine to deliver higher sustained blade speed than 7amp corded for clean and controlled cuts with the power to cut hard materials.

When it comes to jigsaw performance, quality of cut is critical. Increased blade speeds aid in minimising chipping and bucking for cleaner cuts, decreasing the overall time and cost spent sanding and reworking material. The M18 FUEL Top Handle Jigsaw features Milwaukee®’s industry-leading POWERSTATE Brushless Motor which delivers sustained speed at 3,500 SPM to create clean and controlled cuts. The REDLINK PLUS Intelligence electronics communicate seamlessly with the motor to constantly monitor speed and power to maintain this consistent blade speed in tough materials, from hard woods to metal, without stalling or bogging down.

With all this speed and power at hand, the jigsaw features a variable speed trigger, giving users greater control through the cut – whether straight or curved. To further increase accuracy, Milwaukee® designed the M18 FUEL Top Handle Jigsaw with a new internal mechanism and upgraded blade clamp and roller guide to maintain stability through cuts.

When equipped with the M18 REDLITHIUM-ION 5.0 Ah battery pack, the M18 FUEL Top Handle Jigsaw can cut through up to 32 m in 19 mm OSB, delivering a full day’s work with less trips to the charger.

Milwaukee® is committed to improving productivity by providing performance-driven and trade-focused solutions so users can perform an entire day’s work on one battery system. The new  M18 FUEL Jigsaw is fully compatible with the entire M18 line, now offering more than 135 power tool products, and is a true testament to Milwaukee®’s focus on investing in game-changing technology that truly delivers breakthrough solutions for users.

* M18 FUEL is engineered for the most demanding tradesmen in the world. Delivering unrivaled performance, all M18 FUEL products feature three Milwaukee®-exclusive innovations - the POWERSTATE Brushless Motor, REDLITHIUM-ION Battery Pack and REDLINK PLUS Intelligence Hardware and Software - that deliver unmatched power, run-time and durability on the jobsite. Simply put, M18 FUEL tools are the most powerful 18V cordless tools in their class.
