BOSCH, GKS 18V-57-2, 18 V, 16.5 cm Cordless circular saw

The Bosch Professional 18V Cordless Circular Saw is built for cutting wood and wood composites during construction and installation work. This cordless tool provides a 57 mm cutting depth at 90° and a 41 mm depth at 45°. Powered by an 18 V battery, it allows unrestricted movement on job sites without relying on a mains cable. It is compatible with the Bosch Professional 18V System, allowing users to use batteries they already own from that range. The tool is designed for professional woodworking applications where portability is required.

The saw accepts a 165 mm blade with a 20 mm bore. Weighing 2,900 g, the tool measures 440 mm in overall length, making it manageable for extended use. A dust extraction port and an integrated dust blower work together to keep the work area clear. Safety features include kickback protection and a quick-stop brake for secure operation. A spindle lock allows straightforward blade changes. Note that this is a solo configuration: the battery and charger are not included.

• Brushless motor – delivers up to 5,000 RPM for efficient material removal.

• Quick-stop brake – stops the blade rapidly when the trigger is released.
• Spindle lock – secures the blade shaft for safe and quick blade replacement.
• Integrated LED light – improves visibility of the cut line in low-light workspaces.
