Dewalt DCS379B 20V MAX XR Dual Trigger Cordless Brushless Mid-Size Portable Band Saw – Tool Only

The Dewalt DCS379B 20V MAX XR Dual Trigger Portable Band Saw is designed to meet demanding on-site metal cutting needs while maximizing safety, control, and cutting efficiency.

Its 3-3/8” cutting capacity accommodates a wide range of applications, from all-thread and conduit to square tubing and smaller structural steel profiles.

This model features a dual-trigger system, with a secondary safety trigger on the auxiliary handle to promote two-handed operation—part of Dewalt’s PERFORM & PROTECT™ initiative.
