Festool LAS-ST-PSC 500 Base Runner

The Festool LAS-ST-PSC 500 Base Runner is a specialist jigsaw accessory designed to deliver cleaner, more controlled results when cutting metallic materials with compatible Festool cordless pendulum jigsaws.

Developed specifically for the Festool PSC 500 and PSBC 500, it provides an optimised running surface for professional metal cutting applications including aluminium, non ferrous metals and steel.

Unlike a standard running sole, the LAS-ST-PSC 500 features a specially designed metal working surface that helps prevent metal splinters from adhering to the base runner.

This helps maintain smooth movement across the workpiece while reducing the possibility of accumulated debris interfering with guidance. The result is cleaner, more controlled cutting and less time spent dealing with material caught around the base of the jigsaw.

Changing between applications is straightforward thanks to the quick and convenient fitting system. The metal running sole can be rapidly exchanged with the standard running sole, allowing professionals to configure their PSC 500 or PSBC 500 for metal cutting without a complicated setup process.

This makes it particularly valuable for users regularly switching between timber and metallic materials during varied installation, fabrication and construction work.

Festool has also incorporated a device for splinter protection, helping produce cleaner results and minimise the amount of reworking required after cutting.

Combined with the precise guidance provided by the base runner, this makes the accessory particularly useful where accuracy and a high quality finished cut are important.

For optimum system performance, Festool recommends pairing the LAS-ST-PSC 500 with its high temperature resistant METAL jigsaw blade, available separately.

Together, the specialised base runner and appropriate blade provide an effective solution for achieving fast, clean cuts through aluminium, non ferrous metals and steel.

Whether completing fabrication, installation or general metalworking tasks, the Festool LAS-ST-PSC 500 helps expand the versatility of compatible Festool cordless jigsaws.

Its combination of rapid installation, precise guidance and splinter resistant surface makes it an excellent accessory for professionals who regularly require clean and controlled cuts through metallic materials.
