About Product Overview

Cutting fiber cement siding usually means a mess of dust or a blade that dulls fast — the DEWALT 20V MAX Fiber Cement Shear (DCS498B) is built specifically for that job, running at 2,500 strokes per minute to move through sheet material without kicking up the airborne dust a saw blade creates. It's a cordless tool, so there's no compressor or cord to drag around a job site, and the variable speed control lets you match the cutting pace to the material and the cut you're making.

Beyond fiber cement, the shear handles mild steel and stainless steel up to 0.63 inches, which makes it a useful crossover tool for siding crews who also deal with metal flashing, trim, or light-gauge stock. At 19 inches long and 4.5 pounds bare, it's manageable for extended overhead or one-handed work. This is a bare tool — no battery or charger included — so it's built for anyone already running the DEWALT 20V MAX platform who wants a dedicated shear instead of tying up a circular saw for cement board work.

  • 2,500 strokes per minute for fast, controlled cuts
  • Cuts mild steel and stainless steel up to 0.63 in.
  • Cordless 20V MAX platform, tool only (no battery/charger)
  • Variable speed control
  • 19 in. tool length, 4.5 lb. tool weight
  • Bare tool weight (packaged): 5.16 lb.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.
