CRAFTSMAN V20 RP Cordless Circular Saw – 7-1/4 in, Bare Tool CMCS551B

Powerful, durable performance for demanding cuts

The CRAFTSMAN V20 RP Cordless Circular Saw is built around a robust brushless motor designed to maximize runtime and performance on the job. In bare-tool form, it emphasizes weight balance and rugged construction, making it suitable for repeated framing, shelving, and renovation tasks. When used with your existing V20 lineup, you can scale your setup as needs change, since batteries and chargers are sold separately.

Clear visibility, precise cuts

An integrated LED lights the cut line and the work surface, while a large sight window keeps your line in view as you cut. This combination helps you align cuts and monitor progress without guessing. The tool accepts a 7-1/4 in blade, a common size for everyday carpentry work.

Bevel and depth to handle multiple angles

Bevel up to 56 degrees with positive stops at 22.5 and 45 degrees, enabling precise angle cuts for mitered joints and framing tasks. The blade depth reaches up to 2-9/16 inches, opening possibilities for a range of board thicknesses and sheet goods.
