Product Overview
The Milwaukee M12 Sub-Compact Band Saw is the lightest and most compact cordless band saw on the market, designed for electricians, maintenance professionals, and tradespeople who need one-handed portability for cutting small-diameter materials. Weighing just 6.75 lbs. and measuring only 12 inches long, this band saw is 50% lighter and smaller than traditional deep-cut models, making it perfect for overhead, tight-space, and one-handed cutting applications.
Powered by Milwaukee’s M12 REDLITHIUM XC High-Capacity Battery, this saw delivers over 150 cuts per charge and slices through 3/4" EMT (Electrical Metallic Tubing) in just 3 seconds. Its 1-5/8" cutting capacity handles a wide range of materials, while the adjustable blade tension and tracking ensure clean, precise cuts every time.
