DEWALT XTREME™ 12V MAX BRUSHLESS CIRCULAR SAW DCS512 (Tool Only) Compact yet powerful, the DEWALT DCS512 delivers professional-grade cutting performance in a lightweight cordless design — perfect for quick crosscuts, sheet goods, and framing tasks where mobility matters. Built on the 12V MAX XR Brushless platform , this saw offers improved efficiency and extended runtime compared to brushed models, giving you consistent power across a range of materials. Featuring a 5-3/8" blade capacity and adjustable bevel up to 50° , it tackles angled and straight cuts with ease, while the electronic brake enhances safety by stopping the blade quickly after trigger release. A built-in LED work light helps illuminate the cut line for greater accuracy in low-light conditions, and the dust blower clears debris to maintain a clear view of your work surface. The rugged design includes a cast aluminum base for repeatable precision and a built-in rafter hook for convenient jobsite storage between cuts. Tool-only configuration lets you pair this saw with your existing 12V XR batteries for ultimate flexibility.
