From framing to finishing, anywhere on the jobsite, the HKC 55 K Cordless Circular Saw gives you the power and flexibility to handle every cut with confidence. From fast cross-cuts with the FSK cross-cutting Guide Rail, to precise straight cuts with the FS Guide Rail, to accurate angled cuts — the HKC 55 K is built for serious versatility in everyday tasks. The latest generation introduces KickbackStop technology, a sensor-based mechanism that reacts in a fraction of a second to arrest the motor and blade. This innovation helps reduce the disruptions caused by kickback, protecting your workpiece and keeping your workflow smooth.

A newly designed thin-kerf blade with a cutting width of just 1/16” (1.6 mm) provides longer runtime and noticeably higher torque. The result: faster progress, cleaner cuts, and extended battery life. When matched with Festool’s TBX 8 Tabless battery, the HKC 55 K delivers maximum performance for demanding jobs, ensuring you can keep cutting longer without interruption. Together, these innovations make the HKC 55 K more than just an update — it’s a cordless circular saw that combines precision, endurance, and smart technology for the best performance on every project.

Guide Rail

The HKC 55 Saw DOES NOT include a Guide rail. We strongly recommend that you buy a guide rail to go with your saw. A guide rail is necessary to experience the full capability of the saw. We recommend the FSK Cross Cut Guide Rails to maximize the HKC saw. It will also accept standard guide rails.
