Festool - RSC 18 Reciprocating Saw

Cordless ReciprSaw RSC 18 EB

The Festool RSC 18 cordless reciprocating saw is powerful, fast and durable. With its brushless EC-TEC motor,
switch-activated, fast-cutting, pendulum stroke and low level of vibration, the saw is smooth as well as fast to easily cut through the toughest materials. Optimized internal mechanism is both long-lasting as well as efficient - directing all of the power into the saw blade and not into the saw for smoother operation and less vibration for even greater control. Conveniently store the RSC 18, including all the accessories, in the Systainer so that they are well protected and easy to find. A range of blades are available for nearly any application. And in true Festool form, dust extraction is available by means of the included suction adapter to help keep the messiest jobs cleaner.
