Makita JR3070CT AVT® Recipro Saw - 15 AMP

Product Description Makita’s Reciprocating Saw with AVT® (model JR3070CT) delivers superior power and performance with less vibration. The JR3070CT is equipped with Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT®), a internal counterbalance system engineered inside the tool that significantly reduces vibration. The result is faster, more efficient cutting and less vibration in the tool. Amazon.com Makita's Reciprocating Saw with AVT delivers superior power and performance with less vibration. The JR3070CT is equipped with Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT), an exclusive counterbalance system that reduces vibration. The result is faster, more efficient cutting and less vibration in the tool -- and the tool user. The JR3070CT with AVT is powered by a 15 AMP motor with electronic speed control to maintain constant speed under load. The JR3070CT has a long 1-1/4-inch stroke for faster cutting with 0-2,800 strokes per minute (SPM) and a variable speed dial with six different preset speeds to match the speed of the saw to the application. The unique clutch system extends the tool life by protecting the gears should the blade bind. It also has orbital action with four settings to choose from for high speed cutting. More Work, Less Vibration. The JR3070CT is equipped with AVT, Makita's exclusive counterbalance system that reduces vibration for more efficient cutting power. The JR3070CT has a durable body design that keeps dust and debris away from the motor, with rubber and felt seals to keep dust and water out for a longer tool life. The JR3070CT weighs just 9.7 pounds, with "tool-less" blade change and five-position shoe adjustment. Versatile Design for a Range of Applications. The JR3070CT is a versatile and powerful reciprocating saw engineered for demolition, metal cutting, wood cutting, drywall and plaster, plastics and remodeling. It's ideal for builders, roofers, metal fabricators, remodelers, and general contractors seeking a best-in-class industrial quality reciprocating saw. The JR3070CT is just another example of Makita's commitment to innovative technology and best-in-class engineering. About Makita's Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT). Makita has adapted the science of earthquake engineering into power tools with Makita's Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT). AVT is an exclusive innovative counterbalance design that provides the professional a power tool solution with up to three-times less vibration, less noise and more efficient power than the competition. Seismic research has developed this damping science to absorb shocks and protect buildings from the devastation of earthquake vibrations. AVT dynamic damping involves reciprocating engineering where a mechanical damper, effectively a counter balance weight, provides an equal and opposite anti-vibration force that puts an equal mass directly opposite the point at which the striker bolt delivers the impact joules to the breaker steel, carbide bit or recipro saw blade. As vibration is eliminated, power is efficiently increased. Without the dissipation of power through vibration, more of the generated energy in the motor can be delivered to the tool bit or blade. Makita is a worldwide manufacturer of industrial quality power tools and offers a wide range of industrial accessories. Makita applies leading-edge innovation to engineer power tools that are more compact and energy efficient, yet deliver industrial strength power and results.
