Frequently Asked Questions
What is PayPal Credit?
PayPal Credit is like a credit card, without the plastic. It's a credit limit that sits alongside your PayPal account which you can use for your online purchases.
What credit offers are available?
A 0% interest offer you can use again and again: PayPal Credit's 0% interest offer is better than just an introductory offer. Every time you spend £99 or more, you will automatically get 0% interest for 4 months on that purchase.
Plus, you can spread the cost of purchases under £99 at the standard variable rate of interest, currently 23.9% p.a.
*The minimum payment due still applies to 0% offer balances. Any remaining balance due after the 4-month promotional period or any transactions under £99 will be charged interest at 23.9% p.a. (variable). In order to maintain the 0% offer, you need to keep up monthly repayments and stay within your credit limit.
How do I apply?

The application form takes minutes to complete. PayPal will then run a credit check and, if approved, you'll have a credit limit linked to your PayPal account as soon as you accept your Credit Agreement.

Do I need to re-apply if I already have PayPal Credit?

The Festool HW 160 x 2.2 x 20 PW12 WOOD RIP CUT Circular Saw Blade from ITS is a professional-grade blade engineered specifically for rapid rip cuts in solid timber.
Designed to deliver maximum cutting efficiency with minimal effort, this premium blade combines high-quality steel with precision-ground fine-grain carbide teeth to produce fast, clean cuts while maintaining exceptional durability.
Developed to work seamlessly with Festool plunge saws, it provides the accuracy, performance and reliability demanded by professional carpenters, joiners, timber frame specialists and furniture makers. Whether you're processing hardwood, softwood or structural timber, this specialist rip-cut blade is designed to maximise productivity without compromising cut quality.
Featuring 12 precision-engineered PW (Panther) tooth geometry, the blade has been optimised specifically for rip cutting along the grain of solid wood. The aggressive tooth design and 20° hook angle allow the blade to remove material quickly while requiring less feed pressure from the user, resulting in smoother cutting, reduced fatigue and faster progress through demanding timber applications.
This makes it particularly well suited to processing boards, framing timber and large sections of solid wood where speed and efficiency are essential.
Manufactured from premium-quality steel and fitted with fine-grain carbide-tipped teeth, the blade delivers outstanding wear resistance and long-term cutting performance. The robust carbide cutting edges maintain their sharpness through extended professional use, providing consistently clean cuts while reducing the need for frequent blade replacements.
The combination of high-grade materials and precision manufacturing ensures excellent stability and dependable cutting accuracy throughout the blade's service life.
With a 160mm blade diameter, 20mm bore and 2.2mm kerf, the blade is perfectly matched to compatible Festool plunge saws including the TS 55, TSC 55, ATF 55 and AP 55. Designed as part of the complete Festool system, the blade works in harmony with the saw, guide rail and dust extraction system to produce straight, accurate cuts with excellent surface quality.
Festool's colour-coded identification system also makes selecting the correct blade quick and straightforward, helping users choose the optimum blade for every application.
The WOOD RIP CUT blade excels in applications where rapid timber processing is required. It is ideal for splitting boards, cutting hardwood and softwood, manufacturing furniture, constructing timber decking and carrying out façade or structural timber work.
