Makita SP6000J1 Plunge Cut Saw 165mm inc Guide Rail & Makpac Case
The Makita 165mm Plunge Cut Circular Saw and 1.5m (59”) Guide Rail work together to produce accurate cuts with minimal tear-out. The saw combines a powerful 12 AMP motor and a large cutting capacity with magnesium components for less weight and electronic speed control to maintain constant speed under load for smooth cutting and a splinter-free mirror finish. The SP6000J1 is a more portable option to a table saw for select applications, and it is ideal for use on the jobsite or in a workshop.
Precision Settings and Features for Quality Cuts
The SP6000J1 saw has a bevel capability of -1° to 48° with positive stops at 22.5° and 45°. The saw delivers precise cutting, as the position of the blade enters the material on the same cutting line whether cutting straight or bevel. In addition, the saw has close-to-wall cutting (18mm) for expanded cutting applications. The built-in depth stop allows a preliminary cut of 2mm to be performed before the entire material is cut through for clean and splinter-free cutting.
12 AMP Direct-Drive Power for Smooth Cutting
The SP6000J1 has a powerful 12 AMP motor with soft start for smooth start-ups, and Electronic Speed Control to maintain a constant speed under load for smooth cutting. The variable speed dial control (2,000 – 5,200 RPM) allows the user to set the speed for optimum performance in a variety of materials. The built-in torque limiter helps prevent motor burnout, with an electric brake for added productivity.
Precision Cuts and Ease of Use
The saw includes a range of convenient features, including a large top handle, an electric brake for more productivity, as well as a lock-lever that attaches the saw to the rail system so the saw stays on the anodised aluminium rail when positioned for a bevel cut. The smooth and convenient plunge release lever is designed for operator comfort, and the depth adjustment with large scale is easy to set.
Best in Class for a Range of Applications
The SP6000J1 is engineered for cutting sheet material, finish work, trim work, and remodelling. It is ideal for a broad range of trades, including cabinet installers, cabinet manufacturers, finish carpenters, stair installers, flooring installers, woodworkers, and general contractors seeking a best-in-class 165mm Plunge Circular Saw.

Amazing saw! Can’t fault it at all. Loads of power and the soft start makes it quiet when in use. Would recommend to anyone as it’s just so good. Also really good price on powertoolworld.

I read a lot of expert reviews looking for a track saw to cut the high gloss end panels on my new kitchen. Every site i looked at rated this saw as the best value for money and i must say it made light work of my panels and cut them perfectly straight and without chipping. If you are buying this saw, invest in the clamps as well for £20 more they stop the rail moving, even though the felt strips are pretty good at holding the track straight, i just wanted extra peace of mind. Highly recommend this saw for anyone needing a plunge saw with a track.
