Hitachi's new Dry-Cut Masonry saw

Hitachi Power Tools announced its new 4" Dry-Cut Masonry saw, the CM4SB2. Designed with a powerful 11.6 Amp motor, it cuts smoothly through tile, marble granite, concrete brick and similar materials. The CM4SB2 was built to withstand the tough conditions of a dry-cutting environment. A specially sealed armature and switch protect the tool in these conditions, allowing it to perform with outstanding durability. It is the ideal dry-cut for professionals who demand a workhorse of a tool at a competitive value. The hefty 11.6 Amp motor produces a no-load speed of 11,500 RPM for greater cutting efficiency through the toughest materials.

Designed specifically for dry-cutting, the uniquely sealed armature coil is protected from dust and debris. This special seal also helps to minimize tool vibration producing only 1.4 m/s2. Additionally, this leads to less noise coming from the CM4SB2. It produces a noise level at 85 dB, while the leading competitor's model produces 88 dB. A dust-proof switch prevents debris from entering the tool in that location and a metal seated ball bearing wards off damage to the motor caused by high temperatures and vibration, adding to its overall performance and durability.

The CM4SB2 dry cut masonry saw offers the shortest base edge-to-blade distance in its class making it easy to cut into the tightest spaces. A one touch lever adjusts the depth of cut quickly and easily. The elastomer covered handle provides a sure grip and improves comfort. Compact at 8-1/8" in length and lightweight at only 6.2 lbs, this saw is easy to use all day. And it comes with a premium Hitachi 4" continuous rim diamond blade designed for high performance in dry-cutting applications.

The Hitachi CM4SB2 comes complete with a 4" continuous rim blade, wrench, box wrench, 20mm flange and 7/8" flange. It is the ideal dry cut masonry saw for general contractors, construction professionals, stone and tile workers, electricians, plumbers and installers who demand a reliable tool at an exceptional value.
