The Mafell Z 5 Ec Portable Band Saw (120V) delivers a 12 in. (305 mm) cutting depth for heavy-duty timber framing, carpentry, and building renovation. Powered by an 1,800 W (2.4 hp) universal motor, this saw executes clean, square cuts through solid timber and laminated beams.

Constructed with magnesium die-cast components, the Z 5 Ec balances portability with structural rigidity. Digital power electronics provide smooth torque delivery and continuously variable speed control from 650 to 1,550 rpm. Integrated motor cooling air is directed across the cutting path to continuously clear chips and dust, maintaining clear line-of-sight visibility along layout marks.

Precision ball bearing guidance ensures optimal saw band tracking, while a spring-mounted tensioning system simplifies blade changes. The unique tilting blade guide allows right-angle cuts up to 3 9/16 in. (90 mm) deep without the rear of the blade contacting the timber, facilitating clean lap joints and birdsmouth profiling. Back-toothed blade compatibility and an integrated mechanical safety brake facilitate easy blade retraction from deep cuts.
