Dewalt DCS578B Flexvolt 60V Max Brushless 7-1/4" Cordless Circular Saw with Brake

Corded Power Without the Cord

The DeWalt DCS578B 60V MAX 7-1/4" Circular Saw* is the most powerful cordless saw in the DeWalt lineup, delivering up to 47% more power than the previous DCS575 model. Engineered for the professional framer, roofer, and general contractor, this saw utilizes FLEXVOLT® technology to provide a staggering 2456 Unit Watts Out (UWO). It doesn't just cut—it dominates through triple-stacked OSB, LVL, and engineered lumber with the speed of a high-end corded tool.

Safety and efficiency are at the forefront of this design. The integrated electronic brake stops the blade immediately after the trigger is released, allowing you to move to your next cut faster and with more confidence. With a high-grade magnesium shoe and a built-in LED light for superior line-of-sight visibility, the DCS578B is the ultimate heavy-duty cutting solution for the modern jobsite.

Why the DeWalt DCS578B is the Ultimate Professional Saw:

  • 60V Brushless Performance: High-efficiency motor delivers massive torque and 5,800 RPM for the fastest cutting in its class.
  • Electronic Brake: Enhances jobsite safety by stopping the blade instantly upon trigger release.
  • High-Visibility LED: Illuminates the cut line in low-light conditions, ensuring surgical precision during early morning or late evening shifts.
  • Integrated Rafter Hook: Tough, fold-away hook allows for quick and secure storage on the jobsite between cuts.
  • Rugged Magnesium Shoe: Provides a durable, lightweight, and flat base for long-term accuracy and reduced user fatigue.

Frequently Asked Questions

+ Can I use standard 20V MAX* batteries with this saw?
No. Because this is a 60V high-performance tool, it requires DeWalt FLEXVOLT® (60V/20V) batteries to operate. Standard 20V MAX* batteries will not fit into the 60V battery port.
+ How does the electronic brake work?
The electronic brake engages the moment you release the trigger. It uses the motor's own energy to quickly bring the blade to a complete stop, which is a major safety feature and allows you to set the tool down almost immediately after a cut.
+ Is this saw better for right-handed or left-handed users?
The DCS578B is a right-blade saw. This is the traditional configuration preferred by many users for better visibility of the waste side of the cut when using the saw with your right hand.
+ Is this the same as the "Power Detect" or "Flexvolt Advantage" saws?
No. This is a dedicated 60V FLEXVOLT tool. "Advantage" and "Power Detect" are 20V tools that get a boost from larger batteries. This DCS578B is built from the ground up as a 60V powerhouse and offers significantly more torque and power.
