The S355MCS is the original award winning metal cutting mitre chop saw that changed the way fabricators cut steel. Designed for professional fabricators, welders and metalworkers who demand accuracy, repeatability and productivity, it combines Evolution's proven cold-cut technology with a unique mitre cutting system to deliver fast, precise and cost-effective fabrication cuts. Unlike traditional chop saws, the S355MCS allows accurate angle cuts without repositioning the workpiece. The precision ±46° mitre base, stainless steel mitre gauge and heavy-duty clamping system make it easy to achieve repeatable results across a wide range of fabrication applications. Evolution cold-cut technology delivers fast, clean and cool cuts with virtually no sparks, no abrasive dust and a smooth burr-free finish. Materials remain cool to the touch and ready for immediate handling, assembly or welding, helping reduce secondary finishing work and improve productivity. Built for demanding fabrication environments, the S355MCS features a reinforced steel construction, multi-axis clamping system and variable-position cutting head to provide exceptional stability, accuracy and control. Whether producing frames, structural steelwork, gates, railings or general fabrication projects, the S355MCS delivers the performance and reliability professional users depend on every day. The result is a category-defining metal cutting mitre saw that continues to set the standard for professional cold-cut fabrication. Features Precise mitre cuts made easyPrecise angle cuts without having to reposition the workpiece. The S355MCS combines Evolution’s cold-cutting technology with a precision mitre system of ±46°, which allows the saw head to move to the required angle whilst keeping the material securely clamped in place. The stainless steel mitre scale, pre-set angle stops and robust adjustment mechanism make it easy to produce fast, repeatable and highly accurate production cuts, with minimal set-up time. Fast, Clean & Cool Cold-Cut Technology A better alternative to abrasive cutting. Evolution's cold-cut technology transforms metal fabrication by producing fast, accurate cuts without the heat, sparks and dust associated with abrasive saws. The premium 60-tooth TCT blade leaves a smooth burr-free finish that is cool to the touch and ready for immediate handling, assembly or welding, helping reduce finishing time and improve productivity. Built For Professional Fabrication Engineered for exceptional accuracy, stability and repeatability. The S355MCS is built around a reinforced fabrication platform designed to deliver consistent accuracy in demanding workshop environments. A strengthened steel base and fence assembly create a rigid and dependable foundation for precise cutting. The heavy-duty multi-axis clamping system securely holds a wide range of material shapes and sizes. Dual sliding front clamps provide three axes of adjustment, while supplied V-block adaptors support round stock and the height-adjustable clamp rail accommodates larger workpieces. A quick-release top clamp creates a stable three-point clamping system for maximum control. Heavy-duty ACME threads ensure smooth adjustment and long-term durability, while premium knurled fence and clamp faces securely grip the workpiece to prevent movement and improve cut accuracy. The result is fast, repeatable fabrication cuts with the confidence that every component will fit as intended. Variable Position Cutting Head Optimise the blade path for maximum efficiency. The patented three-position cutting head allows the blade position to be adjusted to suit different material sizes and profiles. By optimising blade engagement throughout the cut, the system improves cutting efficiency, reduces unnecessary blade wear and helps maximise cutting performance. Soft Start & Electronic Brake Enhanced safety and improved operator control. Soft start technology reduces startup load and motor stress while helping prevent nuisance breaker trips. The electronic blade brake rapidly stops the blade after the trigger is released, improving safety, convenience and productivity between cuts. Workshop Accuracy. Jobsite Flexibility. Professional fabrication performance wherever the work takes you. The S355MCS combines professional cutting capacity with a compact footprint and integrated carry handle, making it easy to move around the workshop or transport between locations. Paired with the optional MCS Wheeled Stand, it becomes a highly mobile fabrication solution without compromising on accuracy, stability or cutting performance. Built For All-Day Performance Comfortable, durable and dependable when productivity matters. The ergonomic horizontal handle and trigger position provide a natural operating stance that reduces fatigue during repetitive cutting tasks, while the safety lock-off trigger helps prevent accidental activation. Convenient onboard tool storage keeps essential tools close at hand for blade changes and adjustments, helping maintain productivity throughout the working day. Professional Performance Backed By A 3-Year Warranty Confidence built into every cut. The S355MCS is backed by Evolution's comprehensive 3-year warranty, including parts and labour, providing added peace of mind for professionals who rely on their equipment every day.
