Overview
The SKIL SPT67M8-01 is a corded circular saw with a 1,800 watt, 120 volt motor spinning at up to 5,300 RPM. It weighs 10.6 pounds and cuts to a 4 inch capacity through an alloy steel and high speed steel build.
An 1,800 watt motor at 120 volts works out to roughly 15 amps, a strong draw for a circular saw and consistent with a tool built for repeated framing and sheet cuts rather than occasional trim work. The 5,300 RPM no-load speed is high enough for clean cuts in dimensional lumber, and the alloy steel and high speed steel material spec points to a durable shoe and blade combination.
- 1,800 watt corded motor
- 5,300 RPM no-load speed
- 4 inch cutting capacity
- 10.6 lb tool weight
Who it's for
Suits framers, remodelers, and DIYers cutting a lot of lumber or sheet goods who want a corded saw with reliable power. Less suited to anyone who needs cordless portability for quick, occasional cuts.
Pros and cons
- 1,800 watt motor for sustained cutting power
- 5,300 RPM no-load speed
- 4 inch cutting capacity
- Alloy steel and high speed steel build
- Corded, limiting mobility compared to battery saws
- At 10.6 pounds it is heavier than many trim saws
Performance notes
The 1,800 watt motor holds blade speed steady under load, which matters most when ripping through thick or dense lumber where a weaker saw would bog down. At 5,300 RPM no-load, the saw has headroom to maintain a usable cutting speed even as material resistance slows the blade.
