## Summary

The heavy-duty Festool reciprocating saw: 32 mm stroke, switchable pendulum action and up to 230 mm cutting depth in wood. Its low vibration and supplied extraction device suit strip-out work indoors.

## Why this one

- **32 mm stroke**: Up to 3,000 strokes per minute with pendulum action.
- **230 mm in wood**: 175 mm in metal profiles and tubes.
- **Low vibration**: Steadier guidance and less fatigue.
- **Extraction included**: Suction adapter for CLEANTEC extractors in the box.

## The story

### For conversion and strip-out

The RSC 18 is for renovation carpenters and builders who dismantle window and door frames, cut roof and wall openings through boards and studs, shorten beams and cut pipes flush. The pendulum stroke speeds up cuts in timber, the large variable-speed trigger gives a controlled start, and the blade can be flipped 180° to cut up against the floor or ceiling.

### Calmer and cleaner

Festool's vibration control keeps the saw steadier in the cut, which is easier on the operator and the workpiece. The dust extraction device in the box connects to a CLEANTEC extractor, an LED lights the cut, and blades change without touching them. It runs on any Festool 18V pack; the Basic kit includes a WOOD UNIVERSAL blade in a Systainer³ SYS3 L 187.
