Milwaukee Circular Saws
Milwaukee Circular Saws: M18 FUEL, M18, and M12
Milwaukee circular saws cover three sizes and two cutting jobs. For framing and sheet goods, M18 FUEL 7-1/4 inch saws include rear handle models (2830 and 2930) and the 2834 sidewinder, with the M18 brushless 2631 as a lighter option. 6-1/2 inch saws include the M18 FUEL 2730 and 2833 and the M18 2630. The M12 FUEL 5-3/8 inch saw handles trim and cabinet cuts. Metal cutting saws come in 5-3/8 and 8 inch M18 FUEL versions. Matching blades are listed here too.
What to Look For
- Blade size. 7-1/4 inch cuts dimensional lumber in one pass. 6-1/2 inch saws are lighter. 5-3/8 inch suits trim and panels.
- Handle style. Rear handle saws give more reach and push. Sidewinder saws are shorter and lighter.
- Wood or metal. Metal cutting saws run slower with a chip collector and need metal blades.
- Battery. The 2830-21HD kit includes a 12.0Ah pack; most other listings are tool only.

Milwaukee Circular Saws FAQ
Should I choose a 6-1/2 or 7-1/4 inch Milwaukee circular saw?
Pick 7-1/4 inch for framing, decking, and cutting doubled lumber. Pick 6-1/2 inch for sheathing, plywood, and lighter work where weight matters more than depth.
What warranty covers Milwaukee circular saws?
Most Milwaukee electric power tools, including M18 and M12 saws, carry a 5-year limited warranty. Registration is not required. Some products carry shorter terms. Keep your invoice; without it, Milwaukee uses the date code.
