Product Description The DW872 14-inch Multi-Cutter Chop Saw for Metal Cutting cuts a wide variety material at a constant depth throughout blade life.

From the Manufacturer The DW872 multicutter saw is a dry cutting saw that uses a carbide-tipped blade specifically designed for cutting heavy-duty metals. This 14-inch saw has enough capacity to cut everything from 5-inch black pipe to 2-9/16-inch solid bar stock. It's also great for cutting threaded rod, struts, angle iron, black pipe, and rebar. The DW872 cuts at incredibly good speeds. Not only is the speed impressive, but with the finished surface, there is little need for touchup, reducing grinding and filling times. The carbide-tipped blade averages more than 1,200 cuts in most applications, and by sharpening, you can get up to 5,000 cuts. Most local blade shops will retarget the blade. The DW872 sports a powerful 15 amp, 5.3-horsepower motor and is designed to stand up to rugged work on a regular basis. Your purchase includes a quick-locking vise and tool-free miter adjustment for additional speed and convenience.
