The Fein AHKS 18-57 AS N00 is a powerful and compact 18V cordless circular hand saw for metal cutting, designed for fast, precise and virtually cold cutting of metal sheets, pipes, profiles and suitable plastics. Its brushless motor, optimally matched saw blade and AMPShare battery system provide high cutting performance while maintaining a low tool weight of approximately 3.05 kg without battery.
The saw uses a 150 mm circular saw blade and provides a maximum cutting depth of 57 mm. With a variable no-load speed of 1,300–2,800 rpm, users can manually select the appropriate speed for different materials and applications.
The AHKS 18-57 AS also features an aluminium die-cast housing and protective hood, integrated LED work light, large swarf collection container, effective brake, restart protection and a safety hood that closes in less than 0.3 seconds. It is compatible with 18V AMPShare and ProCORE batteries.

Key Benefits
Powerful Metal Cutting
The brushless motor and specially matched metal-cutting blade provide high material removal performance in a compact cordless design.
Fast Cold Cuts
The AHKS 18-57 AS is designed for fast and precise cold cutting of metal sheets, tubes and profiles, helping minimise post-cutting work.
Excellent Cutting Capacity
The saw provides up to 57 mm maximum cutting depth, with up to 24 mm cutting capacity in steel up to 400 N/mm².
Enhanced Safety
The tool incorporates a fast brake, restart protection, temperature shutdown, dead-man switch and rapid-closing safety hood for improved operator protection.
Better Mobility
Its 18V AMPShare cordless platform eliminates the need for a mains cable, making it suitable for mobile installation, construction and maintenance work.
Effective Swarf Management
The integrated swarf collecting vessel helps collect metal chips during cutting and keeps the immediate work area cleaner.
