Electric Bench-Top Cutoff Saws
Use an abrasive wheel with these saws for general purpose cutting jobs. You can cut steel square structural tubing, aluminum conduit, and other hard materials.
Saws with a quick-release vise adjust easily—just flip a lever then slide the vise jaw open or closed. With a tool-free wheel change, you release the wheel by turning the clamp that holds it in place.

Compact Cordless Cutoff Saws
At less than 3 lbs., these saws are light enough to use with one hand but powerful enough to cut through rebar. Using an abrasive wheel, they’re often used to cut pipes overhead or in tight spaces. Because they run on batteries, they're great for quick jobs when you don't have an air compressor or outlet. A brushless motor optimizes battery usage, so these saws run longer on a single charge. It also enhances longevity—they run cool and have few moving parts that require maintenance.
Connect the dust hood to a dust collector to keep your workspace clean and remove debris from the air. If you're cutting on a flat surface, the dust hood helps stabilize the saw, making it easier to control the depth of your cut.
Some saws include rechargeable batteries. For other saws, batteries and chargers are sold separately.
Saws with reversible wheel rotation let you switch the wheel's direction to control where it sends sparks and debris.
Warning: Use wheels that have a greater rpm rating than the no-load rpm of your saw.

Cordless Portable Cutoff Saws
Cut through metal, reinforced concrete, and other hard materials anywhere on your site. These saws weigh less than 15 lbs. and run on batteries, so they’re often pulled out for jobs where you don’t have access to an outlet. To keep the abrasive wheel cool when cutting through concrete, masonry, or stone, connect these saws to a water supply. Cutting with water also reduces dust in the air, making cleanup easier. A brushless motor optimizes battery usage, so these saws run longer on a single charge. It also enhances longevity—they run cool and have few moving parts that require maintenance. All saws also have an indicator light to tell you when you’re pushing too hard, which can cause kickback.
Some saws include rechargeable batteries. For other saws, batteries and chargers are sold separately.
Milwaukee saws have a brake that brings the wheel to a stop when you release the trigger, so you can quickly reposition your workpiece and move to your next cut. These saws also connect to a free downloadable app, Milwaukee One-Key. From your smartphone or tablet, you can track your tool, monitor usage, and get notifications for maintenance.
Warning: You must use wheels with a greater rpm rating than the no-load rpm of your saw.
