Complete guide to choosing your professional Makita saws

Which Makita saw should you choose for your project?

The choice depends primarily on the type of cut desired. For straight cuts in timber, the circular saw dominates with 13 models offered, from compact to robust high-capacity models. For precise angles in finishing or moldings, the miter saw is perfectly suited, with 2 models available.
Demolition or plumbing projects, however, call for a reciprocating saw, offered in 6 models, while the band saw, in 2 versions, excels for precision cuts in metal or piping. With a permanent inventory covering each category, Équipement Polar ensures immediate availability for any type of job site.

Which Makita saw for heavy outdoor use?

The answer depends on the intended application in the field. Our range includes 6 Makita chainsaws designed for felling, limbing, and landscaping, as well as a category dedicated to outdoor tools for challenging conditions.

Key technical terms to remember: stroke refers to the distance the blade travels in each cycle, while torque measures the rotational force transmitted to the blade.

What is Makita brushless technology?

The brushless motor eliminates traditional friction components for superior energy efficiency and extended lifespan. This technology powers the majority of Makita circular and reciprocating saws in our inventory.
Combined with LXT 18V and XGT 40V battery systems, this motorization ensures constant power even during prolonged intensive use. High-end models also feature integrated LED lighting and electric brakes, an increasingly sought-after standard on Quebec professional job sites.

Do Makita saws stand up to daily professional use?

Yes, the Makita range is designed for heavy-duty daily use on construction sites. Carpenters favor circular saws for frame construction, while industrial mechanics opt for band saws when working on piping or metal structures. Landscaping crews rely on chainsaws for felling and property maintenance, while renovation contractors use miter saws for precise finishing on moldings and woodwork. Each category is selected to withstand the Canadian climate, from outdoor construction sites in winter to heated workshops.

What accessories and batteries are compatible with your Makita saws?

Compatibility extends to the entire Makita battery ecosystem, both LXT 18V and XGT 40V. A single battery powers saws, drills, and grinders, a major economic advantage for professionals who already own Makita tools.
Also consider blades suited to your material and transport cases to protect your tools between job sites. For models sold as tool-only, our Makita batteries and chargers complete the set without compromising performance.
