The Bosch GKS 18V-68 BITURBO Cordless Circular Saw is designed for professional woodworkers and tradespeople seeking corded power and flexibility without the cord.

A potential consideration is the optimal performance achieved with higher capacity ProCORE18V batteries (5.5 Ah or greater). This tool offers maximum cordless cutting performance with BITURBO Brushless technology, excellent ergonomics via a new auxiliary handle concept for optimal control, and a best-in-class cutting capacity up to 70 mm. It features faster cutting speeds than corded alternatives, outstanding runtime, and complete manoeuvrability.
