Festool PSBC 500 EB 18V Brushless Jigsaw

The Festool PSBC 500 EB 18V Brushless Jigsaw is a professional cordless jigsaw designed for demanding cutting tasks across wood, metals, and composite materials on site.

With a cutting depth of 120 mm in wood, this jigsaw is well-suited to heavy structural work including beams, rafters, and purlins, as well as detailed joinery tasks such as sink cut-outs, curved cuts, and kitchen fitting work. The variable stroke rate of 1,000–3,800 min?¹ and four-stage pendulum stroke adjustment allow the tool to be dialled in precisely for the material at hand, whether that's solid timber, NF metals, or insulation panels with OSB or steel facings.

Precision is central to the PSBC 500's design. The enhanced three-point blade guidance and guiding jaws maintain accuracy through demanding cuts, while the bevel table adjusts up to 45° on both sides and locks securely at 0° for consistent square cuts. A splinter guard minimises breakout on both faces of the workpiece, reducing the need for rework — a practical advantage on finish joinery and kitchen installations.

On site, the integrated blowing function, deactivatable work light, and dust extraction compatibility keep the scribe line visible throughout the cut. Tool-free FastFix blade changes reduce downtime, and Bluetooth connectivity via the Festool app allows access to operating data, accessories management, and extractor control. The PSBC 500 runs on the 18V TBX 4 battery, compatible with the wider Festool cordless platform.
