The new SKILSAW SIDEWINDER circular saw is coming in two versions, the SPT67WM-22 with magnesium guards, foot and motor housing and SPT67WL-22 resin housing saw. Each is designed with SKILSAW Power Tools’ legendary performance and character that reflects the hard-working nature of pro tradesmen.
The SKILSAW SIDEWINDER SPT67WM-22 (SRP $129 USD) is the only all magnesium circular saw available, which allows the saw to maintain strength, dissipate motor heat and increase jobsite durability, ultimately extending the tool life.
The SIDEWINDER’s 15-amp Dual-Field motor uses a unique copper winding pattern with increased surface area that allows the motor to stay cooler providing best-in-class torque and power. With its worm-drive inspired technology – from the motor to the ergonomic handle design and the motor housing – the SIDEWINDER circular saw stays true to the 90 year heritage of the brand. This SKILSAW SIDEWINDER includes a Freud Diablo 24T carbide blade.
In addition to the all magnesium saw, the SKILSAW SIDEWINDER SPT67WL-01 (SRP $119 USD) weighs in at 8.6 pounds. Its lighter weight means less user fatigue at the end of a long day on the jobsite. It features the same 15 Amp Dual-Field motor and worm drive inspired technology and a new SKILSAW blade.
To accompany these new products and all future SKILSAW products, SKILSAW is now providing an unmatched Stay True Guarantee. The guarantee pledges that users will get the same legendary performance in these new saws they have come to expect. If not, the professional has 180 days to test out the SIDEWINDER and receive a full refund on the saw if not satisfied.
SKILSAW SIDEWINDERs will be available at retail and industrial distributors beginning in late-October, 2014.
