Bring the accuracy of a panel saw to your shop with the Festool TS 55 Circular Saw & Guide Rail System. The cutting accuracy of this saw far exceeds that of standard circular saws. Not only can you cut precisely on your measured mark every time, your cuts will be virtually splinterfree on both sides of your work. Unlike conventional circular saws, Festool's design allows the saw blade to retract into the housing giving you the option to start and end the cut accurately anywhere on the material. A built-in retractable riving knife moves with the blade providing added safety. The saw can tilt up to 45° while on the guide rail, giving a level of accuracy for bevel cuts that is simply astounding.

The dust extraction shroud with rear facing swivel port allows for a clear view of the cut even with a vac hose attached. A 10 amp, soft start motor provides constant speed under load with variable speed adjustment from 2,000-5,200 rpms. Motor has temperature and current-triggered overload protection. The 6-1/4" blade 48T carbide blade provides a cutting depth (when on the guide rail) of 1-15/16" at 90° & 1-7/16" at 45°. Weighs 9.92 lbs.

TS55 includes 48T blade, 55" guide rail, plastic splinterguard and a Systainer 4 storage case. Other lengths of track rail are available, up to 197" long. (The 106" rail allows you to rip the full length of a sheet of 4'x8' plywood.)
