Industrial Hypoid Power Meets Magnesium Precision: The Ultimate Framing Saw

Tackle the most demanding framing and ripping tasks with the Makita 5377MG 7-1/4" Magnesium Hypoid Circular Saw. Unlike traditional worm-drive saws, this industrial powerhouse utilizes precision-machined hypoid gears that offer greater surface contact for more constant power delivery and extreme durability. Engineered with high-grade magnesium components, the 5377MG balances a lightweight profile (only 13.2 lbs.) with jobsite toughness. Powered by a 15.0 AMP Makita-built motor, this saw is specifically designed for framing walls, floors, and roofs, effortlessly slicing through dense engineered lumber like LVL, PSL, and I-joists.

The 5377MG is packed with professional features to enhance your efficiency and accuracy. The integrated oil bath technology, paired with a built-in cooling fan and sealed gear housing, ensures 100% oil surface coating for significantly less maintenance and longer tool life. Operators will appreciate the enhanced ergonomics, including greater clearance between the rear handle and blade case for gloved hands, and a wider visibility window for a clear view of the cut line. With a massive cutting capacity of 2-3/8" at 90° and large rubberized levers for rapid one-handed adjustments, the Makita 5377MG is the definitive choice for professional framers and general contractors.

Key Features

  • High-Torque Hypoid Gears: Delivers more constant power and increased surface contact compared to worm drive gears.
  • Lightweight Magnesium Construction: Reduces operator fatigue while maintaining maximum jobsite durability at only 13.2 lbs.
  • Oil Bath Technology: Features a sealed gear housing and built-in fan to keep gears lubricated and maintenance low.
  • Powerful 15 AMP Motor: Delivers 4,500 RPM for high-performance cutting in dimensional and engineered lumber.
  • Large Cutting Capacity: Offers a 2-3/8" depth at 90° and a bevel capacity of 51.5° with positive stops.
  • One-Handed Adjustments: Oversized rubberized levers allow for fast, easy depth and bevel changes on the fly.
  • Retractable Tool Hook: Integrated sky-hook allows the saw to stay close by when working on rafters or ladders.
  • Premium Framing Blade: Includes a 24T Ultra-Coated blade designed to cut 50% faster and withstand nail-embedded wood.

Pro-Tip

Maximize Torque Efficiency: Unlike standard circular saws, a hypoid saw is designed to be pushed from the rear for maximum leverage. When cutting through dense materials like LVL or wet pressure-treated lumber, keep your arm straight and let the weight of the magnesium base and the high-torque hypoid gears do the work. Avoid forcing the saw; a steady pace allows the built-in fan to keep the motor cool and the oil bath to perfectly lubricate the gear teeth for the smoothest possible finish!
