Product Information

Revolutionary – not evolutionary!

  • Glide mechanism replaces slide rail -saving space in your workshop
  • Extremely smooth action
  • Miters from 52° left to 60° right
  • Bevels from 48° left and 48° right

When we say this saw is “as smooth as butter” you may think it’s a worn out cliché. But the movement of this revolutionary miter saw is almost effortless. Because there are no rails, the saw can sit closer to the wall saving space. But the smoothness of the Axial Glide System’s action is truly a marvel. It also has easy to read stainless steel miter scales showing miters from 52° left to 60° right and bevels from 48° left and 48° right. Miter detents are available at 0°, 15°, 31.6°, 22.5°, 45° and 60° right. When that doesn’t do it, there is also a push button miter detent override. Bevel detents are available at 0°, 33.9° and 45° left and right. Squarelock™ fences do not require adjustments and can accommodate a sacrificial fence. Standard equipment includes 12” 60T Blade, Material Clamp and Dust Bag. Imported. Truck Freight.

    Comments about 12? Glide Miter Saw:

    The base plate was not machined correctly, the right and center where perfectly alinged the left half of the base was machined higher. for the expense of this machine Bosch really let me down. Bosch tech support did not seem to give a ra about the issue.
