DCS520B vs DWS520K

DEWALT DCS520B vs DEWALT DWS520K. Of the 5 figures both makers publish, 1 differs: voltage. 3 are worded too differently to set side by side: arbor, depth of cut and included.

Stated differently, not directly comparable

The two makers put these figures in different terms, so the rows cannot be read as a match or a difference from these pages.

  • Arbor: DCS520B: 6–1/2" (165 mm) diameter blades with a 0.79" (20 mm) diameter bore; rated 6000 rpm or higher. DWS520K: 20mm.
  • Depth of cut: DCS520B: 0–2.3” (0–59 mm) without guide rail; with guide rail 0–2.2” (0–55 mm). DWS520K: 2-1/8-in (54mm) at 90°, 1-5/8-in (41mm) at 45°.
  • Included: DCS520B: (1) Blade, (1) Blade Wrench, (1) 60V MAX* 6-1/2 in (165mm) TRACKSAW. DWS520K: (1) 6-1/2 in (20mm arbor size) 48-Tooth Ultra Fine Finishing Blade, (1) Blade Wrench, (1) Kit Box, (1) DWS520 Heavy-Duty TrackSaw.

Where the table has one figure and a dash, only DEWALT's cited pages give motor, speed, weight and warranty; only DEWALT's cited pages give dust port. Those rows are open questions for the other maker, not ties between the DCS520B and DWS520K.
