DeWALT Cut-Out Tools
DeWALT Drywall Cut-Out Tools and Rod Cutters
DeWALT cut-out tools cut openings for boxes, lights, and windows after drywall is hung. Choices include the 20V MAX XR DCE555 brushless model, the 20V MAX DCS551, the corded DW660, and the older 18V DC550. This collection also carries the DCS350 20V MAX threaded rod cutter, which shears rod cleanly without sparks for strut and hanger work.
What to Look For
- Brushless or brushed. The DCE555 is DeWALT's brushless XR cut-out tool.
- Dust. Drywall cutting makes fine dust, so plan for collection and cleanup.
- Rod cutting. The DCS350 suits electricians and mechanical trades hanging strut and pipe.

DeWALT Cut-Out Tools FAQ
Cut-out tool or oscillating tool for drywall?
A cut-out tool spins a spiral bit to trace around boxes quickly, which is faster for many openings. An oscillating tool makes straight plunge cuts and handles more materials.
What warranty covers DeWALT cut-out tools?
Most DeWALT power tools carry the standard DeWALT warranty: 3 years of limited coverage, 1 year of free service covering maintenance and parts worn from normal use, and a 90-day money-back guarantee. Select products carry a 7-year limited warranty instead. Coverage applies to the original end user buying from DeWALT or an authorized seller such as The Tool Nut, and proof of purchase may be required.
