When it comes to cutting metal cleanly and efficiently on the jobsite, the new FLEX 24V 5-7/8” Metal Cutting Circular Saw (FLEX-FX2461-Z) delivers the performance and control that metalworkers, electricians, HVAC pros, and general contractors need. Built for portability without sacrificing power, this compact cordless saw combines smart design, advanced cutting tech, and the FLEX Advantage battery system for a high-performance metal cutting experience.

Designed for Demanding Metal Applications

The FX2461-Z is purpose-built for cutting a wide range of metals, including steel conduit, angle iron, unistrut, threaded rod, sheet metal, and more. With a no-load speed of 4,500 RPM, it’s optimized to maintain fast, consistent cuts while minimizing burring and heat distortion.

It comes equipped with a 5-7/8” 36-tooth ceramic carbide blade with ACFR tooth design, specifically engineered to handle tough metals while producing cleaner edges. The thin kerf further improves cut efficiency and reduces the amount of resistance during operation, helping extend blade life and reducing motor strain.

Clean, Controlled Cuts with Less Mess

FLEX knows how frustrating flying metal chips can be on a jobsite, not to mention the safety hazards. That’s why the FX2461-Z features a high-efficiency chip collection system with an easily removable chip box that captures metal shards and particles as you cut. This not only helps protect the operator and surrounding work area, but it also saves cleanup time and extends tool longevity by keeping metal debris away from critical components.

A clear viewing window above the blade provides excellent line-of-sight visibility without exposing you to flying debris. It’s a small but important touch that keeps your cuts accurate and safe.

Comfort, Durability & Storage-Ready

Despite its power, this metal cutting saw weighs in at just 5.5 lbs, making it ideal for overhead cuts or extended use without fatigue. The removable auxiliary handle gives users the option for stable two-handed control, which is especially helpful when cutting thicker or longer material.

Durability also isn’t compromised; the saw includes a punched steel shoe designed for rugged work environments and long-term stability. Its 2-1/4-inch maximum cut depth at 90° ensures it can tackle most standard conduit and metal framing applications.

Between cuts, the integrated rafter hook makes it easy to hang the tool within reach, a handy feature on ladders or scaffolding.

FLEX Advantage: Power Without Compromise

As part of the FLEX 24V ecosystem, the FX2461-Z benefits from the FLEX Advantage: unmatched battery power, exceptional runtime, and industry-leading fast charging. This saw is sold tool-only, so you can use any existing FLEX 24V battery and charger if you’re already in the FLEX system.

FLEX 24V batteries use Therma-Tech heat management, high-output lithium cells, and intelligent power delivery, which means this tool is built to handle tough applications without fade or performance drop, even during all-day use.

Who Is This For?

Whether you’re cutting strut for electrical runs, conduit for HVAC systems, or framing steel for light commercial builds, the FX2461-Z is an ideal solution. It’s built for professionals who need clean, fast, cordless metal cutting with fewer jobsite hassles.

This saw eliminates the need for grinders or reciprocating saws in many applications where a cleaner, spark-free cut is safer and more efficient. It’s also an excellent choice for shop work, on-site installation, or tight jobsite conditions where cords are a hazard or inconvenience.

FLEX Lifetime Warranty

Like other tools in the FLEX lineup, this model is backed by the FLEX Limited Lifetime Warranty, as long as it’s registered within 30 days of purchase (promotion valid through December 31, 2025). That’s one of the strongest warranties in the cordless power tool industry, giving pros added peace of mind.

The FLEX FX2461-Z 5-7/8″ Metal Cutting Circular Saw offers a compact, cordless solution for cutting metal with minimal cleanup and maximum productivity. With a smart design, durable construction, and the trusted performance of the FLEX 24V battery platform, this saw is a smart addition to any metalworker or tradesperson’s tool arsenal.
