DeWalt Miter Saw DWS716 12 Inch (15 Amp 3800 RPM Double Bevel Compound Stainless Steel Detent Plate 6-5/8 Inch Crown Nested Capacity)

DeWalt DWS716 12-Inch 15 Amp Double-Bevel Compound Miter Saw

The DeWalt DWS716 12-Inch 15 Amp Double-Bevel Compound Miter Saw is an industrial benchtop cutting workstation engineered to execute precise crosscuts, miters, and dual-directional bevels in heavy dimensional lumber, baseboards, and nested architectural moldings. Driven by a 15 Amp motor operating at 3,800 RPM, this 50.35-pound compound saw features a stainless steel miter detent plate with 14 positive stops, tall sliding fences supporting 6-5/8 inch vertically nested crown molding, and a double-bevel range of 0° to 48° both left and right. Designed for commercial finish carpenters and framers, this high-capacity miter saw solves board flipping delays, fence deflection, and sawdust management challenges across jobsite cutting setups.

Best Used For:

• Architectural Millwork & Crown Molding: Cutting 6-5/8-inch vertically nested crown molding and 6-1/2-inch vertical baseboards against tall sliding fences.
• Heavy Framing & Dimensional Lumber Crosscutting: Executing clean 90-degree 2x8 crosscuts and 45-degree miter cuts on thick framing lumber without flipping workpieces.
• Dual-Directional Bevel Trim Carpentry: Flipping bevel angles from 0° to 48° left or right instantly to execute matching corner miters efficiently.

Key Performance & Safety Features

• 15 Amp High-Torque Motor: High-output motor delivers 3,800 RPM for smooth, chatter-free cuts through tough hardwoods and pressure-treated lumber.
• Double-Bevel Cutting Capacity: Bevels 0° to 48° left and right with positive stops at 0°, 22.5°, 33.9°, and 45° to eliminate material flipping.
• Stainless Steel Miter Detent Plate: Heavy-duty miter detent plate with 14 positive stop positions guarantees repeatable angular accuracy.
• Tall Sliding Base Fences: Support 6-5/8-inch nested crown molding and 6-1/2-inch vertical baseboards while sliding out of the way effortlessly for bevel cuts.
• Cam-Lock Miter Handle & Override: Delivers quick, reliable miter angle adjustments from 0° to 50° left and right with a detent override button.
• High-Efficiency Dust Duct System: Optimized dust collection duct and fabric dust bag capture fine airborne sawdust particles effectively.

Technical Specifications

Pro-Tip: Take advantage of the double-bevel design when installing long crown molding runs by angling the saw head right and left rather than flipping long trim pieces end-for-end.
