DeWALT DCS520T2 54V XR FLEXVOLT Brushless 165mm Plunge Saw Kit – 2 × 6.0Ah Batteries, Charger & TSTAK VI Case
Precision plunge saw for clean, straight cuts in sheet materials and timber
DeWALT DCS520T2 is a 54V XR FLEXVOLT cordless plunge saw designed for professional carpenters, joiners and installers who need accurate, clean cuts without relying on mains power. Its 165mm blade, variable-speed control and guide-rail compatibility make it well suited to cutting worktops, plywood, MDF, doors and other sheet materials.
Supplied with two 6.0Ah FLEXVOLT batteries, a multi-voltage charger and a TSTAK VI heavy-duty case, this kit provides a powerful cordless cutting solution for the workshop or jobsite.
Key Benefits
54V brushless motor: Delivers power equivalent to approximately 1,450W, providing strong cutting performance while helping maximise battery runtime. The brushless design is built for durability and regular professional use.
Precise plunge cutting: Lower the blade into the material at the required position to create internal cut-outs without starting from an edge. This is particularly useful when fitting worktops, trimming panels and cutting openings in sheet materials.
165mm blade with variable speed: The saw operates between 2,500 and 4,200 rpm, allowing you to adjust the speed to suit the material and application. The supplied 42-tooth TCT blade is designed to produce a fine finish with reduced breakout in laminated materials.
Guide-rail compatibility: Adjust the saw to run accurately along compatible DeWALT guide rails for straight, repeatable cuts. The rail system is useful when sizing large panels or trimming doors where a clean, consistent edge matters.
Anti-kickback function: Helps prevent the saw from travelling backwards along the guide rail and reduces the risk of the tool climbing out of the workpiece during plunge cuts.
Parallel plunge mechanism: Helps maintain a consistent hand position throughout the cut, supporting comfortable, controlled operation.
Adjustable bevel cutting: Set the bevel angle up to 47° for angled cuts and joinery applications. The adjustable cutting depth also makes it easier to set up for different material thicknesses.
Wireless Tool Control: Connect the saw wirelessly to a compatible DeWALT dust extractor with Wireless Tool Control, allowing the extractor to start automatically when the tool is activated.
Effective dust extraction: The enclosed blade guard is designed to support efficient dust collection, while the extraction port allows connection to a compatible extractor using the DeWALT AIRLOCK system.
Two 6.0Ah FLEXVOLT batteries: Keep a spare battery ready while the other pack charges. The supplied batteries provide the flexibility to work away from mains power, with runtime depending on the material and cutting conditions.
