Einhell Professional TP-JST 18/135 Li BL jigsaw — specs & overview

The Einhell Professional TP-JST 18/135 Li BL operates on an 18V battery system. It uses a brushless motor to manage power delivery during heavy use. This motor type helps maintain efficiency while reducing friction within the tool housing. The device delivers up to 3500 strokes per minute. A stroke length of 26.0 mm allows for relatively fast movement through material.

This jigsaw handles thick wood. It cuts up to 135 mm in wood and 10 mm in steel.

The T-Shank fitting ensures compatibility with standard blade types found in most workshops. Users can adjust the cutting angle to a 45 degree bevel. At 1.96 kg, the tool remains manageable for handheld operation. It provides a balance between weight and power for various tasks.
