BOSCH GKS 18V-57-2 GX Professional Brushless Cordless Circular Saw 165 mm Solo

The BOSCH GKS 18V-57-2 GX Professional 18V Cordless Circular Saw Solo is a cordless circular saw built for professional carpentry, construction, and installation work. It cuts wood and particle board, including skirting boards, window frames, moulding, and small panels. The tool achieves a maximum cutting depth of 57 mm at 90° and 41 mm at 45°. It is powered by an 18 V battery compatible with the Bosch Professional 18V System and AMPShare platforms. This is a solo tool supplied without a battery or charger; both must be purchased separately.

Weighing 3,400 g, the saw has a soft grip for improved handling during extended use. The motor drives the included blade at speeds up to 5,000 RPM for efficient material removal. A built-in LED light illuminates the cutting path in dim workspaces. For angled cuts, the bevel adjustment allows quick setup without extra tools. Safety features include kickback protection, a quick-stop motor brake, overload protection, and a soft-start function. An integrated dust extraction port connects to a vacuum to keep the workspace clear. The tool is also compatible with Bosch FSN guide-rail systems for straight cuts.

• 165 mm blade diameter with a 20 mm bore balances cutting capacity with maneuverability.
• Brushless motor design reduces maintenance and heat buildup during continuous operation.
• An included guide rail adapter enables accurate straight cuts when used with Bosch FSN guide rails.
• A spindle lock secures the arbor for quick blade changes.
• Adjustable speed settings allow the operator to match the blade speed to the material density.
• Vibration level of 2.5 m/s² in wood reduces hand and arm strain during prolonged cutting tasks.
