The Festool TSC 55 KS 18V Brushless Plunge Saw from ITS is a professional-grade cutting solution engineered for tradespeople who demand precision, safety and maximum mobility on site.
Designed to deliver full cutting performance with the convenience of cordless operation, this compact and lightweight plunge saw is immediately ready for use and perfectly suited to daily professional tasks such as cutting panels, trimming worktops, sizing doors and making precise plunge cuts directly against walls.
Its balanced design and ergonomic handling make it exceptionally comfortable to use, while the slim housing allows flush cuts and clean alignment with the guide rail system for consistently accurate results.
At the heart of the TSC 55 KS is a powerful brushless EC-TEC motor, delivering up to 5,200 rpm and working in harmony with Festool’s advanced power electronics and a single 18 V battery system.
Paired with Festool’s specially developed 1.6 mm thin-kerf saw blades, the saw achieves fast, clean cuts with reduced resistance, improved efficiency and longer battery life. The result is outstanding cutting quality across a wide range of materials, with smooth progress and excellent endurance even during extended work sessions.
Safety is a core focus of the TSC 55 KS, highlighted by the integrated KickbackStop technology. This intelligent, sensor-based system detects kickback in a fraction of a second and immediately stops the blade, significantly reducing the risk of injury and protecting both the user and the workpiece.
Precision control is further enhanced by the exact depth setting system, featuring a clear dual-pointer scale for quick, accurate adjustments and a fine-adjustment function for dialling in cutting depth with absolute accuracy.
The saw offers a cutting depth of up to 55 mm, or 43 mm at 45°, with an angular range from -1° to 47°, making it highly versatile for bevel cuts and detailed fitting work. Whether used with or without a guide rail, depth and angle settings remain easy to read, repeatable and reliable.
At the heart of this tool is the brushless motor that allows you to use the tool efficiently. As part of the design, the tool utilizes every bit of battery power when you need, all while reducing the need for ongoing maintenance by reducing the amount of heat generated and working more efficiently.
The technology in creating a brushless motor system allows for perfect symmetry between battery power and usage ensuring you get all the power you need, when you need it.
The TSC 55 KS is designed to support healthier, cleaner working conditions. It offers effective low-dust operation either by using a dust collection bag or by connecting to a Festool extractor with automatic start-up, delivering near dust-free cutting.

FESTOOL SYSTAINER
BRUSHLESS MOTOR
FESTOOL FASTFIX
Makes changing routing, sawing, planing, sanding, drilling and screwdriving tools easier. To ensure ultimate versatility with their power tools, Festool uses a Fastfix interface, meaning that any Fastfix system can be easily attached or swapped out to suit your needs. Not only does this save you from lugging around multiple power tools, but it also saves you money by eliminating the need for different screwdrivers and drills.
FESTOOL Kickback Stop
The intelligent kickback stop prevents dangerous kickbacks when sawing and plunging into the workpiece, thereby minimising the risk of injury and protecting the workpiece. On drills, it prevents your wrist from twisting dangerously if the drill suddenly becomes caught or jammed, therefore ensuring improved safety when working.
FESTOOL CLEANTEC
Integrated bayonet fitting as the connecting element between dust extractor and selected power tools to ensure dust and debris are kept at bay and that you can continue to work in comfort.
FESTOOL SYSTAINER
Systainers have been designed precisely for the purpose of safely storing and transporting high-quality power tools and accessories. The extremely robust and impact-resistant tool boxes store all of the tools in a space-saving manner and protect the tools from dust, spray water and extreme temperatures.
The various compartments and plastic containers inside the Systainers provide a clearly arranged storage space for accessories and consumables. The Systainers' special modular design means that they can be stacked and connected to each other.
BRUSHLESS MOTOR
At the heart of this machine is the brushless motor that allows you to use the tool efficiently. As part of its design, the tool utilises every bit of battery power, all while reducing the need for ongoing maintenance and the amount of heat generated to work more effectively. The perfect symmetry between battery power and usage ensuring you get all the power you need, when you need it.
