Power Jigsaw DeWALT DCS331N

The DeWALT Power Jigsaw DCS331N is a lightweight 18 V cordless jigsaw from the XR Lithium Ion series designed for efficient, fast cutting. Weighing 2.4 kg, it offers a maximum bevel capacity of 45° and a stroke length of 2.6 cm, with cutting depths up to 135 mm in wood and 10 mm in non-alloy steel. A fan-cooled PM47 motor with replaceable brushes provides up to 3000 strokes per minute for consistent performance.

Advantages

The tool combines a powerful PM47 fan-cooled motor and XR Lithium Ion technology for high efficiency and fast cutting. It features an intelligent variable speed trigger with a lock-off switch for controlled, safe operation, plus a patented keyless blade-change system compatible with T-shank blades. Additional benefits include a 3-position pendulum action for adjustable cut aggressiveness, a patented anti-vibration counter-balance and rubber-coated grip to reduce vibration and user fatigue, a tool-free adjustable shoe with an anti-scratch cover beveling to 45° both ways, and a dust blower to keep the cut line clear.
