Bosch AdvancedSaw 18V-140 Jigsaw — Specifications & Overview

The Bosch AdvancedSaw 18V-140 is a cordless jigsaw powered by an 18V battery system. It features a brushless motor designed for consistent power delivery during extended cutting tasks. This model reaches a maximum speed of 3000 strokes per minute to handle various materials efficiently. The tool utilizes a Universal Fitting system for blade changes.

The machine handles significant material thicknesses. You can cut through wood up to 140mm deep or steel up to 10mm thick. A stroke length of 23.0mm helps maintain momentum during these heavy-duty operations. This specific combination of speed and stroke depth allows for deeper, faster cuts in dense timber.

The tool weighs 1.6kg. It is light. Because the weight stays low, you can manage the saw for longer periods without fatigue. The inclusion of orbital or pendulum action gives you control over the finish quality. You might choose pendulum mode for fast, rough cuts in wood or standard mode for cleaner edges.

Strengths

High cutting capacity with a 140mm maximum depth in wood and 10mm in steel.
Brushless motor technology provides efficient energy use from your 18V battery.
Versatile pendulum action allows you to switch between speed and precision.
Universal Fitting ensures compatibility with many different blade types on the market.

Things to consider

You must provide your own 18V Bosch batteries for operation.
The 3000 strokes per minute speed is optimized for high-speed cutting rather than ultra-slow precision work.

Who it's for

This jigsaw is for tradespeople or serious DIYers who need a portable, cordless solution for heavy timber work. It suits those who already own Bosch 18V batteries and require a tool capable of deep wood cuts.
