The XBP05R1B is a sub-compact cutting solution designed for 1-handed operation in tight spaces and overhead cutting applications. The XBP05R1B features a BL Brushless Motor that delivers 0-630 ft./min. variable blade speed for faster, more efficient cutting. It performs up to 160 cuts of 3/4 in. EMT with 1 charged 18-Volt LXT 2.0Ah Battery. Constant speed control automatically applied additional power to the motor to maintain speed under load during challenging jobs. Overload protection is designed to protect the motor from burnout during abnormally high torque situations. The XBP05R1B weighs just 7.3 lbs. (with battery, sold separately) with a more compact design at 14-3/4 in. L and an ergonomic shape that fits like a glove for reduced operator fatigue. It has a 2 in. x 2 in. cutting capacity. The XBP05R1B is also equipped with a built-in L.E.D. light that illuminates the work area for more efficient work, as well as rubber bumpers and a removable hook. It meets ANSI blade guarding requirements for 1-handed operation. Trigger switch with lock-off feature requires 2 actions to power-on the band saw. A catch bar helps eliminate accidental follow through during repetitive cutting. This bundle also includes the E-04139, 28-3/4 in. 18 TPI Bi-Metal Sub-Compact Portable Band Saw Blade.
