For this evaluation the tests we selected to give a good relative, measurable comparison of run-time and the speed of cutting. We feel these tests will give you a good baseline on overall tool performance. Clearly run-time is hugely important with high demand cordless tools, and productivity is always an important benefit to consider when buying a cut off tool.



9 Inch Cordless Cut Off Saw Comparison Testing

Full Depth 3″ Granite block cutting for runtime evaluation
Rebar cutting for power and speed
Multiple metal and masonry cuts in various materials for ergonomic review
Cutting of concrete blocks and bricks


Cut Off Testing Materials

Several test simulations were used which are considered typical of tasks where a contractor might use a 9 inch cordless cut off saw for, these simulations included:

Cutting concrete block [CMU]
Cutting solid concrete block – this block has a very consistent matrix and is made in large precast batches.
Cutting #5 rebar
Gang cutting 5 pieces of #5 rebar
Full depth cuts in 3″ granite paver slabs
¼” thick steel channel stock cuts


Cut Off Saw Testing Categories

In addition to the simulations each of the crew members spent time cutting varying materials, to evaluate the cut off saws independently. Our testing simulations and these individual evaluations were used to determine the Best 9 Inch Cut Off Saw in several categories including:

Size and Weight
Features
Performance
Ergonomics
Price
Best in Class – derived from the above categories
