The Bosch JS365 is a top-handle jig saw designed for curve-cutting and general cutting applications. This corded power saw delivers the precision and control that finish carpenters, kitchen and bath installers, and woodworkers need for accurate, smooth cuts in wood, aluminum, and steel. The variable-speed motor allows you to match cutting speed to your material, while the low-vibration design and precision-machined plunging mechanism ensure enhanced accuracy and extremely smooth operation.
Whether you're making intricate curves, crosscuts, or bevel cuts, the JS365 combines powerful performance with excellent handling. The ergonomic top handle with soft grip areas provides solid control, and the ambidextrous lock-on button makes it easy to use with either hand. A speed dial on the back sets maximum speed, while the accelerator trigger regulates operating speed for precise control throughout your cut.
