Dera Quality Jigsaw 900w

A "Dera jigsaw 900W" refers to a jigsaw manufactured by the Dera brand, with a motor power rating of 900 watts. Jigsaws are versatile power tools used for cutting intricate curves and patterns, as well as straight lines, in various materials like wood, plastic, and metal.

Understanding the 900W Power Rating:

• Higher Power: 900 watts is a relatively high power rating for a jigsaw. This generally means the saw will have:
  • More Cutting Power: It can handle tougher and thicker materials with less effort, reducing the chance of the blade stalling.
  • Increased Speed: It can cut faster, especially through denser woods or metals.
  • Better Durability: More powerful motors are often built for more demanding use and longer lifespans.
• Target User: A 900W jigsaw would be suitable for both serious DIY enthusiasts and professional users who need a robust tool for frequent and varied cutting tasks.

Common Features of a Dera 900W Jigsaw (and jigsaws in general):

While specific features can vary slightly between models, a 900W Dera jigsaw would likely include:

• Variable Speed Control: This is crucial for cutting different materials. Slower speeds are ideal for metals or plastics to prevent melting and extend blade life, while faster speeds are for wood.
• Orbital Action (Pendulum Function): This feature allows the blade to move in an elliptical motion (forward and upward on the upstroke) in addition to the standard up-and-down motion.
  • More aggressive cutting: Good for faster cuts in wood and rougher finishes.
  • Adjustable settings: Usually has multiple orbital settings (e.g., 0-3 or 0-4) to control the aggressiveness of the cut.
• Bevel Cutting: The base plate (shoe) can be angled, typically up to 45 degrees in either direction, to make angled or miter cuts.
• Tool-less Blade Change: A quick-release chuck or lever system that allows for fast and easy blade changes without needing an Allen key or screwdriver. This is a significant convenience feature.
• Dust Blower/Extraction Port: A built-in fan to clear sawdust from the cutting line or a port to connect a vacuum cleaner for dust extraction, improving visibility and cleanliness.
• LED Work Light: Illuminates the cutting area for better visibility, especially in dimly lit conditions.
• Ergonomic Grip: Often features rubber overmolds for comfortable and secure handling, reducing fatigue during extended use.
• Lock-on Switch: Allows the user to keep the saw running without continuously holding the trigger, useful for long cuts.
• Cutting Capacity: This indicates the maximum thickness of different materials the saw can cut. For a 900W model, you could expect:
  • Wood: Up to 80mm - 100mm
  • Steel: Up to 6mm - 10mm
  • Aluminum: Up to 20mm
