18V LXT® Lithium‑Ion Compact Brushless Cordless Band Saw

The Makita® 18V LXT® Compact Brushless Cordless Portable Band Saw (XBP04Z, tool only) delivers cordless metal cutting power in a compact size.

The XBP04Z has a compact design for one-handed operation in tight spaces and overhead cutting applications in a variety of metal materials.

The XBP04Z features a BL™ Brushless Motor that delivers 0-630 ft./min. variable blade speed for faster, more efficient cutting. Constant speed control automatically applies additional power to the motor to maintain speed under load during challenging jobs.
