Running on a 20-volt platform, it delivers 2,500 strokes per minute (SPM) for fast, consistent cuts through material up to 5\/8 inches in thickness. The pistol grip handle provides positive control during extended use. Electricians, HVAC installers, and sheet metal workers rely on this tool for ductwork fabrication, metal panel trimming, and rough-in cutting tasks where maneuverability and portability matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DCS498B is suited for both commercial and residential trade work involving sheet metal cutting. It performs well in tight spaces where reciprocating saws or angle grinders are difficult to control. HVAC contractors cutting duct board, sheet metal, and insulated panels will find the SPM and cutting capacity aligned with typical field work. The tool-only configuration makes it a straightforward addition to an existing 20-volt DEWALT battery system without the cost of a redundant battery pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2,500 SPM cutting speed for fast, clean cuts through sheet material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8 inch cutting capacity handles common sheet metal gauges used in HVAC and electrical work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e20-volt cordless platform eliminates cord drag and outlet dependency on the job site\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePistol grip handle provides stable, controlled operation during single-hand use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact handheld design suitable for cutting in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with DEWALT 20-volt MAX batteries.
