Portable Electric Tools: Festool TS 55 REQ Saw

The all-new TS 55 REQ is not your standard circular saw. With its accuracy and versatility, it should be compared to the most advanced table saws, miter saws, or panel saws available. Its incredible portability and unbelievable ease of use delivers a precise cutting solution like no other—equally at home in high-end cabinet shops as in the most challenging onsite remodel.

With the addition of micro-adjustable depth controls and a flat housing for flush-cutting against walls or adjacent surfaces, the TS 55 REQ is our most advanced plunge-cut saw ever—and that’s saying a lot.

With the FS Guide Rail System, you’ll get laser-straight, splinter-free cuts in seconds. Simply lay the Guide Rail between two points, and you have your cut line. It’s really that easy.

Splinterguards on both sides of the blade ensure that you’ll make zero-tear-out cuts in virtually any material, improving your quality of work while significantly reducing material waste.

Replace large stationary equipment with an incredibly precise, handheld unit. You’ll save your back, while getting more out of your expensive materials.

Features:

  • With a flat housing offset to ½”, you’ll make straight cuts perfectly parallel to any edge, further increasing your range of applications with the TS 55 REQ.
  • Large, readable scale indicates depth setting, for cuts on or off the guide rail. Also includes a self-adhering Imperial scale.
  • Integrated micro-adjust knob enables precise depth adjustment, so you cut only what’s intended.
  • Simple detent-override function extends angle cutting to -1° to 47° with positive stops at 0° and 45°.
  • Redesigned riving knife emerges before the saw blade for easier positioning in existing cuts lines.
  • Streamlined Splinterguard is always there when you need it, eliminating tearout on both sides of the blade.
