Dewalt DCS373B 20V MAX 5-1/2″ Metal Cutting Circular Saw – Tool Only

The DEWALT DCS373B is a cordless metal-cutting circular saw built for fast, clean cuts in common jobsite metals. Its 460 MWO motor spins at 3,700 rpm to maintain speed under load, paired with a 5-1/2″ 30-tooth carbide blade designed for steel, strut, conduit, threaded rod, and light plate. A high-strength steel shoe resists wear and helps the saw track straight across pan decking and channel. An LED worklight with a 20-second after-glow highlights the cut line, while a Sight-Line™ window improves visibility when you’re following marks on pipe or flat stock.

At just 7 lbs (bare tool), the DCS373B balances well for overhead cuts and tight spaces. The optimized rubber overmold grip gives confident control, and the 1-11/16″ max depth of cut at 90° covers most common metal profiles. As part of the DEWALT 20V MAX system, it runs on the same lithium-ion batteries your crew already uses; pair it with a 5Ah pack (such as DCB205) or POWERSTACK™ 5Ah (DCBP520) for longer runtime on repetitive cuts. This is the tool-only version and ships with a 5-1/2″ carbide metal-cutting blade so you can get to work right away.
