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.

Performance that lasts
Less effort with excellent cutting performance. The brushless EC‑TEC motor and advanced electronics of the HKC 55 K work in perfect sync to maximize the TBX 8 Tabless Battery. Paired with the specially designed thin‑kerf blade 1/16” (1.6 mm), the saw delivers higher torque, longer runtime, and faster cutting performance. The result: cleaner cuts, extended battery life, and less effort on every cut.
Precision in every cut
Attach, set, and cut accurately and cleanly. Secure the FSK Guide Rail firmly to the saw and take it wherever the job requires. Quick, precise cross‑cuts are easy to achieve, while integrated angle guides provide perfectly repeatable cuts from ‑60° to +60°. The automatic return function ensures consistent, efficient cross‑cuts every time.
Kickback protection
Kickback protection function for smoother workflow. The HKC 55 K introduces sensor‑based KickbackStop technology, reacting in a fraction of a second to stop the motor and blade. This innovation helps reduce disruptions caused by kickback, helping to protect your workpiece and keeping your workflow smooth. Additional refinements — including the built‑in riving knife to prevent blade jamming and the guard lever for easier operation — make cutting more intuitive and efficient.
