The Festool PSC-E 18 EB-Basic Cordless Pendulum Jigsaw combines precise cutting with a compact, lightweight design. Developed for professional assembly and interior fitting, it provides convenient cordless performance for everyday installation tasks.

Powered by Festool’s 18 V battery system, the PSC-E 18 features a brushless EC-TEC motor. Its adjustable stroke rate ranges from 800 to 3,500 strokes per minute. Furthermore, four pendulum settings allow users to adapt the cutting action to different materials.

The 23 mm stroke length supports cutting depths up to 40 mm in wood. With suitable blades, the jigsaw also cuts non-ferrous metals up to 20 mm and mild steel up to 10 mm.

Unlike adjustable-base jigsaws, the PSC-E 18 features a fixed 90° saw table. Combined with three-way blade guidance, this design supports consistent right-angled cuts without additional setup. Consequently, it is particularly useful for trimming furniture components, fitting kitchens and cutting interior panels.

The compact knob-handle design provides comfortable control during detailed cutting work. Weighing approximately 1.7 kg without accessories, the tool is easy to manoeuvre in restricted spaces.

Tool-free blade changes help reduce interruptions between tasks. In addition, the integrated work light, chip-blowing function and extraction connection help maintain visibility along the cutting line.

The supplied splinterguard helps minimise edge breakout, while the plastic base runner protects sensitive workpiece surfaces.

The Festool PSC-E 18 EB-Basic offers a practical solution for carpenters, joiners and installation professionals seeking accurate cordless cutting without unnecessary complexity.
