Execute Precision Beveling and High-Speed Curvilinear Cutouts with Advanced Orbital Control

The DEWALT DW317K 5.5 Amp Variable Speed Corded Orbital Action Jig Saw Kit is a professional-grade handheld power tool engineered to deliver accurate curvilinear and straight cuts in dense building materials. Driven by a dependable 5.5 Amp motor that generates up to 3,100 strokes per minute, this high-performance cutting system features a keyless lever-action blade clamp for rapid hot-blade changeouts on busy worksites. Outfitted with an industrial all-metal gear case, a 4-position orbital action switch, and positive shoe bevel detents at 0 and 45 degrees, this versatile assembly provides the rigidity and speed adjustments required for aggressive carpentry shapes, metal profiles, and electrical cutout boxes.

Best Used For:

  • Intricate Carpentry Cutouts: Scribing tight-radius radius shapes, sink openings in countertops, and custom architectural contours in dense hardwoods or finish finish panels.
  • Angled Structural Beveling: Executing clean, repeatable mitered joints and chamfered edges ranging from 0 to 45 degrees using secure mechanical base shoe detents.
  • HVAC and Electrical Outlets: Plunge-cutting fast entry pathways and service wire pockets through wood studs, interior drywall layers, or thin sheet metals.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • Keyless Lever Blade Clamp: Eliminates the need for secondary wrenches or keys, speeding up fast tool-free blade installations and quick ejection workflows.
  • 5.5 Amp Industrial Motor: Supplies smooth, consistent percussive kinetic power to pierce and slice through stubborn materials without bogging down.
  • 4-Position Orbital Tuning: Grants step-by-step mechanical control over tooth aggressiveness, balancing rough high-velocity wood clearing with clean, splinter-free finishes.
  • Rugged All-Metal Gearbox: Encases the vital internal reciprocating transmission components in a structural metal framework to withstand drop forces.
  • Variable Speed Trigger Command: Operates dynamically from 0 to 3,100 strokes per minute, allowing the technician to match optimal cutting metrics to the target material density.

PRO-TIP: When executing tight scroll lines in delicate materials, drop the tool back into orbital position 0 or 1. This stops the aggressive front-to-back pendulum travel, directing all 3,100 SPM strictly vertically to prevent surface veneer blowout or delamination along curved cuts.
