Key Features of DeWalt Jigsaws

  • Advanced Brushless Motors: Many of our premium cordless DeWalt jigsaws are equipped with XR brushless motor technology. This provides significantly longer runtimes, cooler operation, and sustained power under load compared to older brushed motors.

  • Ultimate Cutting Control: Achieve flawless results across various materials. Featuring intelligent variable speed triggers and multi-position pendulum action, you can easily transition from fast, aggressive rough cuts in thick timber to slow, splinter-free precision in delicate laminates.

  • Tool-Free Blade Changes: Maximise your efficiency and minimise downtime. DeWalt’s quick-release keyless blade clamping system allows you to securely swap out hot or dull blades in seconds without fumbling for a hex key.

DeWalt Jigsaws FAQs

What type of blades do DeWalt jigsaws use?

Modern DeWalt jigsaws are designed to accept universal T-shank (T-fitting) jigsaw blades. T-shank blades are the current industry standard, providing a highly secure grip and allowing for fast, tool-free blade changes.

What does the pendulum action do?

The pendulum (or orbital) setting moves the blade in a slight elliptical motion—swinging forward on the upstroke and back on the downstroke—rather than just strictly up and down. Engaging the pendulum action on your DeWalt jigsaw allows for much faster, aggressive cutting in thick wood. Turning it off completely gives you a smoother, cleaner finish, which is essential when cutting metal, ceramics, or tight curves.

Can a DeWalt jigsaw cut through metal?

Yes. While primarily used for wood, DeWalt jigsaws can easily cut through sheet metal, aluminium, and even steel pipes provided you equip the tool with the correct bimetal or HSS metal-cutting blade. Remember to turn the pendulum action off and use a lower speed setting to prevent the blade from overheating.

Can I use my current DeWalt batteries on a new jigsaw?

Absolutely. If you purchase an 18V XR cordless DeWalt jigsaw as a "bare unit" (body only), it is fully compatible with your existing 18V XR lithium-ion slide batteries and chargers, making it a highly cost-effective way to expand your kit.
