Experience mains-level cutting performance with complete cordless mobility using the Festool TSC 55 KEB-Basic Cordless Plunge-Cut Saw.

Its dual-battery configuration delivers full 36V performance and a maximum speed of 5200min⁻¹, while the coordinated 1.8mm thin-kerf blade supports fast cutting, extended battery endurance and excellent finished-edge quality.
