Festool HK 55 EBQ-Plus-FSK 420 - The Circular Saw That Thinks It's a Track-Star

Some saws cut freehand. This one glides on rails. The Festool HK 55 EBQ-Plus-FSK 420 isn't just a circular saw—it's a 55mm-deep precision system married to a 420mm cross-cutting rail, creating a partnership that turns sheet goods into perfect pieces. With a 160mm blade humming at 5,400 RPM and a 0-50° bevel range, this isn't just cutting—it's engineering with wood.

Precision That Comes With Its Own Guidance System

While other saws rely on steady hands, the HK 55 EBQ-Plus-FSK 420 brings its own straight edge everywhere it goes. The 1,200W motor delivers smooth power through 55mm of material at 90° and 42mm at 45°, while the variable speed control (2,000-5,400 min⁻¹) lets you match the blade's tempo to the material's personality—thoughtful for veneers, confident for plywood.

Weighing 4.4kg, it feels like guiding a purpose-built instrument rather than wrestling a power tool. The 4m cable reaches across workshop spaces without creating trip hazards, while the dual dust ports (27/36mm) connect to Festool's extraction system, ensuring your cut line stays visible from start to finish.

Technical Harmony Between Saw and Rail

Why This Partnership Changes Workshop Mathematics

• Integrated rail system - FSK 420 guide for perfect cross-cuts
• 50° bevel capacity - creates sharp angles with track guidance
• Variable speed intelligence - optimize cutting for each material
• Dust extraction partnership - clean cutting line visibility
• Lightweight control - 4.4kg reduces fatigue during precision work
• Electronic braking - stops blade quickly after cuts
• Festool ecosystem - compatible with larger guide rails
• Cross-cut specialization - designed for sheet goods perfection

For Those Who Believe Straight Cuts Shouldn't Be Luck

This saw serves cabinet makers processing panels, installers cutting finished materials on site, and woodworkers who value absolute precision in every dimension. The 50° bevel range means you can create angled cuts with the same track-guided precision as straight ones—everything from simple miters to complex compound angles.

The FSK 420 rail isn't an accessory—it's part of the saw's identity. The cross-cutting system ensures perfect 90° cuts across sheet goods, while maintaining portability for job site work. The dust extraction captures particles at the source, maintaining visibility and air quality whether you're cutting MDF, plywood, or solid stock.
