Our take on the SKIL PWR CORE 20 XP Brushless 20V 7-1/4 In. Circular Saw, Tool Only-CR5440B-00

The SKIL PWR CORE 20 XP is a cordless 7-1/4 in. circular saw built around a brushless motor that spins at 5,300 RPM. It cuts 3X lumber in one pass and, with the 5.0Ah PWR CORE 20 battery, is rated for up to 350 cuts in 2x4 pine. A 0–56° bevel, electric brake, LED light, rafter hook and dust port round out a feature set that matches or beats most 20V-class saws, and the cast aluminum shoe works with SKIL's track guide. It is sold as a bare tool, so it suits people already on the PWR CORE 20 battery platform.

About the SKIL PWR CORE 20 XP Brushless 20V 7-1/4 In. Circular Saw, Tool Only-CR5440B-00

The SKIL PWR CORE 20 XP is a 20V brushless cordless circular saw with a 7-1/4 inch blade. Its digital brushless motor runs at 5,300 RPM and can rip through 3X lumber in one pass. With a PWR CORE 20 5.0Ah lithium battery (sold separately), it makes up to 350 cuts in 2x4 pine on a single charge.

The guards and shoe are cast aluminum. The shoe works with the SKIL 2 x 27.5 In. Track Guide (sold separately) for ripping long panels. An electric brake stops the blade quickly between cuts.

The saw has an adaptable dust port that directs sawdust away from the work area, an LED light and a built-in rafter hook. Bevel capacity is 0 to 56 degrees.

Questions and answers

Does the saw come with a battery?
No. It is a bare tool; the 5.0Ah PWR CORE 20 battery and charger are sold separately. The 350-cut rating assumes that 5.0Ah pack.
What can it cut?
The 7-1/4 in. blade and 5,300 RPM motor cut 3X lumber in one pass. The 0–56° bevel handles angled cuts, and the shoe fits the SKIL 2 x 27.5 in. track guide for long rips.
What is in the box?
The saw, a 24-tooth 7-1/4 in. blade, a vacuum adapter and a hex key. No battery, charger or track guide.
Does it have a brake?
Yes. An electric brake stops the blade quickly between cuts, which matters when you are moving fast on a framing job.
Is it worth it over a brushed saw?
The brushless motor gives more runtime and longer life, and the 5-year warranty backs it. If you already own PWR CORE 20 batteries, it is an easy step up from a brushed model.
Can I connect a shop vacuum?
Yes. The adaptable dust port takes the included vacuum adapter so you can direct sawdust away from the cut.
