Festool TSC 55 KS Cordless Track Saw Basic (577991)

For over four decades, tradespeople have trusted Festool to lead track saw innovation. Since 1980, Festool has set the standard with dependable quality, precision, and cutting performance trusted on jobsites around the world. Now, that experience drives the next generation of cordless track saw performance: the TSC 55 KS Cordless Track Saw—faster, lighter, and more efficient than ever before. Work longer with less fatigue: The single-battery design reduces weight while delivering equal or better performance than the previous generation when paired with the new TBX Tabless battery. Achieve smoother cuts with less effort: A new 1/16" (1.6 mm) thin-kerf blade and refined tooth geometry help produce cleaner results while extending runtime on a single charge. Keep your workspace cleaner: The redesigned dust bag is easier to empty and works together with the improved lockable articulating dust port for better dust control. Move freely without interference: The slimmer motor housing stays within the guide rail width to help prevent catching on clamps or material edges during cuts. Help reduce the risk of kickback and keep working: The sensor-based KickbackStop reacts quickly to help stop kickback, then resets fast so you can get back to work with minimal interruption. Everything you expect from a Festool Cordless Track Saw—now refined for greater cutting performance, mobility, and efficiency. Backed by decades of innovation, the TSC 55 KS helps you achieve precise, repeatable results cut after cut.

More power, less weight

The TSC 55 KS brings together everything you need in a cordless track saw for on‑the‑go work. Its compact, lightweight design delivers full performance with just one battery, making it versatile and easy to handle. The slimmer profile feels comfortable in your hand and expands your applications—whether making precise cuts directly against the wall or aligning flush with the guide rail. With one battery in use and another charging, you can keep working without interruptions all day.

Cleaner cuts, longer runtime

Paired with Festool’s advanced power electronics and brushless EC‑TEC motor, the TSC 55 KS extracts maximum performance from the TBX 8 Tabless Battery. Combined with the specially designed 1/16" (1.6 mm) thin‑kerf blade, you get exceptional efficiency and glass‑smooth results. Less effort from the tool means longer runtime and consistently high‑quality cuts.

Smart control

Kickback is one of the most common disruptions when using a plunge‑cut saw. The innovative sensor‑based KickbackStop reacts in an instant to halt the blade, helping protect the workpiece and letting you get back to cutting quickly. It’s one more way the TSC 55 KS keeps your workflow smooth and uninterrupted.

Greater power and endurance

The TSC 55 KS is equipped with a brushless EC‑TEC motor for maximum life and efficiency. Paired with advanced power electronics and the TBX 8 Tabless Battery, it delivers optimal cutting performance and extended runtime for demanding jobs.

Exceptional torque

Specially designed 1/16” (1.6 mm) thin‑kerf blades harness the full power of the saw. Built for cordless use, they provide clean cutting results, faster cutting performance, and longer battery life.

Greater control thanks to KickbackStop

The innovative sensor‑based KickbackStop reacts instantly to halt the blade, reducing disruptions when sawing or plunging into the workpiece. It helps protect your cut and keeps you working smoothly.

Precise depth setting

Dual pointers and fine adjustment make depth settings easy to read and dial in with precision. Suitable for use with or without a guide rail, the system ensures parallax‑free accuracy every time.

Virtually dust-free

Whether using the redesigned Dust Bag or a Dust Extractor with Bluetooth® auto‑start, the Festool extraction system captures dust at the source so you can work cleaner.

Tailored lighting

The attachable LED light (available separately) brightens your cutting area with shadow‑free illumination, precisely where it matters—directly on the workpiece.

Lockable dust port

The adjustable dust port can be locked in place or rotated 360° for flexible hose positioning and cleaner work.

Stay connected

Integrated connectivity with the Festool app gives you detailed information on battery charge levels, motor temperature, and KickbackStop status. You can also access software updates to keep your saw performing at its best.
