Where it sits among 165mm plunge saws

Scaled against the 14 plunge saws with a 165mm blade we list, so other sizes aren't in the mix. Not a score: bigger isn't always better for your job.

The verdictOur take

The M18 FPS55 is the smoothest-running saw in this group, with a vibration figure of just 0.56 m/s², the lowest declared here, and it backs that with a 59mm cut depth (54mm on rail) and a riving knife, which is uncommon on a cordless plunge saw. It runs on Milwaukee's single 18V M18 battery and sits on the shared Festool-pattern rails, so Festool, Makita and Milwaukee tracks all fit. We rate it the standout cordless pick for M18 owners and anyone who values low fatigue and rail flexibility; for the quietest cordless saw, the DeWalt DCS520 is dramatically lower at 82.2 dB(A).
