Makita JR3051T Reciprocating Saw: Enhanced Power and Durability for Demanding Cuts
The Makita JR3051T Reciprocating Saw is a powerful and highly durable corded power tool designed for aggressive cutting in demolition, renovation, and general construction applications. As a direct evolution of the popular JR3050T, the JR3051T features an upgraded motor and improved internal mechanisms, offering even greater performance and longevity for professionals who need to cut through a wide variety of materials quickly and efficiently.
Features
- Higher Power (1,200W / 12 Amps): Equipped with a more powerful motor than its predecessor, delivering enhanced cutting efficiency and increased capability for tougher materials and sustained operation. Available in both 110V and 240V versions.
- Variable Speed Control (0-3,000 SPM): The trigger-activated variable speed control allows for precise matching of the strokes per minute to the specific material (e.g., lower speed for metal, higher for wood), optimizing cutting performance and extending blade life.
- Longer 30mm (1-3/16") Stroke Length: An increased stroke length compared to the JR3050T contributes to even faster material removal and more aggressive cutting action.
- "Tool-Less" Blade Change: Retains the convenient "push-in" lock system for rapid and effortless blade changes without the need for additional tools, significantly improving productivity on site.
- Improved Tool-Less Shoe Adjustment: The heavy-duty shoe can be quickly and easily adjusted, allowing the operator to control cutting depth and blade position to maximize blade life and optimize cuts.
- Increased Durability: Features an enhanced slider holding mechanism and a robust overall body design. Rubber and felt seals are strategically placed to better protect internal components from dust and debris, contributing to a longer tool life in harsh work environments.
- Rubberised Soft Grip Handle: Provides enhanced user comfort, improved grip, and reduces fatigue during prolonged use, even in challenging conditions. Features anti-slip dimples for better control.
- Dust and Drip-Proof Design: Engineered with a design that helps protect the internal working parts (motor and bearings) from dust and water ingress, crucial for longevity in demanding environments.
- Large 2-Finger Trigger with Lock-On Function: Provides comfortable operation and features a lock-on button for continuous cutting, reducing finger fatigue during extended tasks.
- Reversible Tool Hook: A convenient, integrated tool hook allows the saw to be securely hung when not in use, improving organization and safety on the job site.
- Double Insulation: Offers an essential layer of protection against electrical shock, enhancing user safety, particularly on construction sites.
- Compact & Balanced Design (3.2 - 3.3 kg / 7.3 lbs): Despite the increased power, the JR3051T maintains a manageable weight and good balance, reducing operator fatigue during all-day use.
- Included Carry Case: Typically supplied in a durable carry case for convenient transport and protection of the tool and accessories.
Cutting Capacities:
- Max. Cut in Wood (90°): 255mm (10") (when using appropriate longer blades)
- Max. Cut in Pipe: 130mm (5-1/8")
