Makita GVJ02Z 40V max XGT Brushless Cordless Jig Saw, Tool Only - GVJ02Z
The 40V max XGT Jig Saw (GVJ02) combines precision and power with the efficiency of a brushless motor in a compact design. The Jig Saw is engineered to deliver the power and performance of a corded jig saw but without the hassles of a cord. It is ideal for professional woodworkers, cabinetry makers, specialized residential construction workers and any pro-contractor seeking a best-in-class cordless jig saw.
The GVJ02 has 3 orbital settings plus straight cutting for faster and more accurate cuts in a variety of materials. The variable 6-speed control dial (800-3,500 SPM) enables the user to match the speed of the tool to the application. In addition, the efficient brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge than similar non-brushless tools. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. And since there are no carbon brushes, the brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life.
